Kangerlussuaq

Kangerlussuaq is a small town located in the western area of Greenland known for being rich in history, culture and places to discover. The name of the city means "great fjord" in the Greenlandic language and is linked to its geographical position, within one of the largest fjords in the country. The history of the city is marked by a strong foreign presence since its foundation, which took place in 1941 by Nazi Germany, up to the more recent days when the Americans decided to definitively abandon the city in 1992. Following a period of German rule, Kangerlussuaq became part of the American territory, becoming an important military base given its strategic geographical position.

After a short period in which the Danes regained control of the area, the outbreak of the Cold War brought the territory back into the hands of the Americans. Inevitably with the decline of tensions between the two great world powers, the military base lost the importance it had acquired and the dissolution of the USSR led the Americans to definitively abandon the territory. For history lovers, a visit to the ancient military base is what's right for you.

Here it is possible to see the signs of the American presence and immerse yourself in the history of the city. Its rich wildlife and its being an ideal starting point for those who want to explore the enormous ice cap also make Kangerlussuaq an ideal destination for nature lovers. Even if the temperatures are often very low and may seem limiting for visiting the city, there are, however, unmissable activities, so cover yourselves and go on an adventure! Among the many activities available, the opportunity to go on a dog sled is an unforgettable experience that deserves to be realized and immortalized to share it with all your friends.

If this activity takes place mainly in the winter months, during the summer hiking and wildlife watching are the main activities. The best way to reach the city is on board a cruise ship. Choosing a cruise that departs from Kangerlussuaq or has this city as a stop is the ideal choice for those who want to visit Greenland and North America. Don't miss this opportunity and choose a cruise from Kangerlussuaq!

Copenaghen

Copenhagen, literally "port of the merchants", is the capital of Denmark and one of the country's most densely populated cities. Originally a city mainly inhabited by fishermen, it became a fundamentally important port for trade.
Copenhagen is a year-round tourist destination and in summer the flow of tourists increases considerably thanks to Northern Europe cruises.

It is very common to add a stay in the city before a cruise, to take in its distinguishing relaxing atmosphere and see what it has to offer. Among its famous attractions you cannot miss the statue of the Mermaid which is located right at the entrance to the port and the Tivoli Gardens, one of the world's largest amusement parks, opened in 1843 and loved by everyone.

Copenhagen (København in Danish and 'Copenaga' in Italian [no source]) is the capital and the most populous city of Denmark with 518,574 inhabitants in the municipality (1,167,569 in the urban area). The city stretches across the islands of Sjælland and Amager and is separated from the city of Malmö in Sweden by the strait of Øresund.
