Land Of The Midnight Sun: What Alaska Looks Like At 1 AM, Thanks To 24-Hr Daylight For 2 Months

Meenu Katariya

The earth is an incredible planet with all its beauty and wonders.

One such wonderful phenomenon is the midnight sun. Quite literally, some parts on the earth have sunlight all throughout the day, i.e. 24 hours.

Alaska is one such inhabited place where the two months around the summer solstice see daylight 24 hours a day.

And the views are just stunning.

It is surely a wonderful and rare phenomenon for the rest of the world, especially us Indians, but for those in Alaska, it’s a way of life.

When the entire world sleeps at night, Alaskans are wide awake and don’t get surprised if you see them hiking, camping or working.
