The Beauty of Northern Lights



”They are the signs from God” whispered the elders of the old times. Thousands of years later the modern  man discovered that those amazing lights in the sky are caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere.

Aurora Borealis in Levi

Aurora Borealis was named after a Greek’s Goddess Aurora (Goddess of Dawn) and Borealis the north wind. These amazing lights make most foreign people stop and stare in the sky with wonder but they do make us locals smile as well. There are certainly many benefits when it comes to living in Lapland.
