Tromsø is a city and municipality in Troms county, Norway. The midnight sun occurs from about 18 May to 26 July, but the mountains in the north block the view of it for a few days, meaning that one can see the midnight sun from about 21 May to 21 July. Owing to Tromsø's high latitude, twilight is long, meaning there is no real darkness between late April and mid-August. t is possible to observe aurora borealis (northern lights) from Tromsø, as northern Norway is located in the auroral zone.
