Explore the top of the world and
experience the stark beauty of the
Arctic, where polar bears reign and
blue ice floats serenely on the horizon.
Here, it is silent and still one moment,
and a cacophony of migrating birds,
barking seals and crackling icebergs
the next.
From the seas surrounding Svalbard —
a far northern Norwegian archipelago
of frozen tundra, dramatic fjords and
remote human settlements — witness
this world awakening from winter
slumber to the midnight sun.
