Day 2

Nuuk, Greenland

Nuuk’s first Inuit settlers arrived on Greenland’s shores from the Canadian Arctic approximately 4,500 years ago, and its people have long celebrated their indigenous roots. In the city’s boutique stores, knitwear designs are woven with Inuit patterns and local art showcases the blend of modern Danish and traditional cultures. The city’s architectural highlights are centered around Colonial Harbor, with its plethora of colorful residences. Nuuk’s showpiece however is the Katuaq Cultural Center, which was inspired by the northern lights and surrounding mountain landscapes.
