Title: Would you visit Greenland?
Post by: whoareyou on June 28, 2009 08:40 AM
I have an interest in islands and foreign places, especially those that we probably don't know too much about. I did a little research on Greenland, that large hunk of ice owned by Denmark with only less than 60,000 residents. Most of the residents seem to live in the coastline or around that area.

So I have a question, would you visit Greenland? It looks like a really nice place in some areas, besides all of that ice. The capital of Greenland is Nuuk, with only 18,000 people in its' metro area. The small city has a university, an airport, museums, hotel, and a performance center, among other sites of interests. It would be really cool to visit such an unusual place, and to see how people live there.

Here's a pic of central Nuuk:

i would like to take a trip to greenland some time. I bet it's really pretty there since the wildlife and landscape are virtually untouched.
