Longyearbyen is an accessible residential area at the northern end of the world. From June 165438+ 10 to June 65438+ 10 of the following year, Longyearbyen was plunged into darkness because of the extreme night. There are only 1800 people here. Maybe that's why they painted the house. 60% of the land here is covered by glaciers. If you are not afraid of the cold when you come here, you can take part in many activities, such as kayaking, dog sledding and motor sledding.

No.4 and No.3 coal mines

No.3 coal mine has stopped digging coal and has become a factory and mine that can be visited. Now every day, a tour guide takes a group to visit the mine. The guides here are all former miners. Helmets and miner's lamps are provided in the mine, and the visiting time is 3 hours. Visitors can personally experience how hard and difficult it is to work in a narrow mine with a height of less than 1 m. In addition, the temperature under the mine is constant at -5 degrees Celsius, so tourists must pay attention to keep warm.
