Where is the best place to see aurora in Canada?

Many people think that the most beautiful aurora will appear at night in northern Europe or Alaska, but it is not. Huangdao town in northwest Canada is the best place to see the aurora.

Huangdao Town was once rated as the best place to watch the aurora in the world by NASA. Because Huangdao Town is located in the northwest of Canada, the terrain is flat and there are not many obstacles, so you can enjoy the beautiful aurora more intuitively. According to statistics, if you stay in Huangdao Town for more than three days, the probability of seeing the aurora is above 98%. More importantly, Huangdao Town is very close to the place where the aurora appears, less than 50 kilometers, and the aurora is within reach.

Because Huangdao Town is quite remote, flying is the best way to travel. However, it should be noted that there is no direct flight to Huangdao Town. No matter from China or Canada, you need to transfer, usually to Calgary or Edmonton.

When you get to Huangdao Town, you don't have to worry too much about traffic. When you get out of the airport, you will see the shuttle buses from various hotels. If the hotel you live in is not connected, you can take a bus to and from the city or take a taxi. Because Huangdao Town is very small, there is no need to worry about spending a lot of time on traffic after leaving the airport.

Huangdao Town has the only aurora viewing platform in all polar regions, only 25 minutes' drive from downtown. The observation deck is flat and wide, with a large greenhouse, various equipment and various desserts and drinks. In addition, there are two traditional tents of aborigines on the observation deck, which is definitely the first choice for photographers.

In addition to the observation deck, you can also quietly go to the suburbs to enjoy the aurora. It is also a good choice to rent a car and drive in Huangdao Town. But burning the midnight oil on the snowy road is quite dangerous, so this method is not recommended.

Passengers who have just arrived in Huangdao Town can choose to hold the Aurora Tour in advance. In this way, you can enjoy the bus at night, and you won't encounter the dilemma of not finding the north. Besides, there are professional tour guides to guide you, which can save a lot of time.
