Northern Lights Holidays

What is the Northern Lights 

Aurora borealis, commonly known as northern lights, is a very rare and fascinating phenomenon for lovers of the nature. These are basically the dancing lights that are seen in the sky due to a collision between charged particles from the Sun that enter in the Earth’s atmosphere and gaseous particles that are already present in the atmosphere.

While it mostly appears in green, the colors may vary depending upon different kinds of gaseous particles in atmosphere. The other colors you might see northern lights in include shades of red, pink, purple and blue. If you are curious about this phenomenon and want to witness it yourself, you should know when and where to visit for this purpose.
