Polar Nights in Murmansk 2016

2016/02/01

Yesterday Murmansk people have celebrated "The Day of the Sun". This is the day when the Sun finally starts appearing on their skies for brief moments. In Murmansk they have polar nights. Polar nights called winter days  when you don't see the Sun in the skies. Not even for a moment Sun doesn't rises above the horizon. The days look like twilights - the skies on the horizon line has a dimmed light showing a hint of the Sun somewhere there, but it never rises, then the normal night again. But February the First is the first day it appears, so it's a big deal for the people living there. Let's see a few photos how do they cope with this and how their city typically looks like in winters.
