When entering Nord-Norge – Northern Norway – on the main road (E6) you pass through this portal. It symbolizes the northern lights – or Aurora Borealis (Latin: 'first light of day of the north') as erroneously coined by Galileo Galilei (1564-1642). This 'dawn' looks a bit paler that it once did. May I also add that the northern districts doesn't have a monopoly on northern lights, but the further south the rarer it's observed. |
