The Polar Night
The polar night (kaamos) lasts about a month in Levi from December to January, when the sun doesn't rise above the horizon. This doesn't mean complete darkness – during the day there's beautiful blue light, and clear nights offer the best opportunities for seeing the Northern Lights. The mystical atmosphere of the polar night is one of Lapland's main attractions.
