Greenland

A UNESCO World Heritage fjord near Ilulissat, West Greenland, where the Sermeq Kujalleq glacier calves into Disko Bay, producing spectacular floating icebergs that have shaped Inuit travel and hunting for millennia.

A small settlement at the head of the 170-kilometre Kangerlussuaq fjord (Søndre Strømfjord), dominated by the international airport that serves as the main entry point for most visitors to Greenland.

The capital and largest city of Greenland, situated at the mouth of the Nuup Kangerlua fjord on the southwest coast, with a population of around 18,000 and a blend of Inuit traditions and modern Nordic urban life.

The northernmost permanent settlement in Greenland, situated on the northwest coast near the former Thule Air Force Base, home to the Inuit people who were relocated from Thule in 1953; access is by air or sea and requires careful planning.

The largest town in South Greenland, known for its brightly coloured wooden houses, outdoor granite sculptures, and the nearby Uunartoq hot springs; the Danish colonial name Julianehåb survives in local usage.

Greenland's second-largest city, situated on the coast of Davis Strait north of the Arctic Circle, known for its robust hiking trails, Arctic dog sled culture, and the annual winter carnival that brings the town alive with lantern processions.
