➡️A couple of weeks I wrote a caption explaining the Northern Lights from a scientific view👨‍🔬, now it is time for the legends surrounding this amazing spectacle:

📜According to one legend, Odin, the chief god and ruler of Asgard, lived in Valhalla, where he was preparing for Ragnarök. This event was predestined and would be Odin’s greatest battle⚔️, so he needed the bravest warriors at his side. During every battle on Earth, Odin would pick the warriors who would die and join him in Valhalla. The Valkiries👸 were female warriors on horseback. who wore armour and carried spears and shields🛡️, were tasked with leading Odin’s chosen warriors to Valhalla. The Vikings believed the Northern Lights🌌 illuminating the sky were the reflections of the Valkyrie’s armour🛡️ as they led the warrior to Odin.

📜In several other legends, they claim the Northern Lights🌌 were the breath of brave soldier who died in combat or they were believed to be the Bifrost Bridge🌈, a glowing, pulsing arch which led fallen warriors to the their final resting place in Valhalla.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦But for the Sámi people, the Northern Lights🌌 didn’t tell stories of heroism and bravery, they believed that they were the souls of the dead💀, and they were to be feared and respected in equal measure, so you shouldn’t talk🗣️ about them or even waving👋, whistling😗 or singing🎶 under them, as this would alert the lights to your presence and carry you up to the sky⬆️. Nowadays, many Sámi people stay in their homes🏠 when the Northern Lights are illuminating the sky🌌.

❓Did you know that that Norway has more English speakers than Canada? 76% of the Canadian population speaks English while 86% of the Norwegians make use of the English language for communication.

Top Troms Hotel Reviews

Enter Amalie Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"very nice staff and clean rooms! "

Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromso

10/10 Excellent

"Modern budget hotel right in the centre of Tromso. Rooms are small but if bedding down is all you need.. perfect. No thrills, but all good for a few days. Clean and warm. Food and drink options available 24/7 in reception. Hotel is in a excellent location in the city centre with plenty of bars, cafes, restaurants including the Hard Rock all a few metres as way. Great for a base to explore Tromso especially if you want to try to save a few pounds in this beautiful but expensive city."

Quality Hotel Saga

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is in a great spot in the middle of all the shops in Tromsø. There was a small parking deck under the hotel that we took advantage of. We were able to walk to all the sites in the downtown area. Polaria was a short walk which was very nice. We were able to see the seals which my wife loved. We did not take advantage of the restaurant or bar at the hotel, but we were surrounded by options a short walk away. We loved our stay here and would stay again."
