Chapter 631: Polar

Cold air cuts.

Bi Fang walked out of the cabin, exhaled a mouthful of cold mist, and shivered all over.

Suddenly from the middle of summer to the bitter winter, no matter how strong the physique is, people will feel the biting cold.

At this time, Bi Fang had already put on a jacket.

This is not Greenland yet, but the city of Langyer in Svalbard.

At 78 degrees 13 minutes north latitude, it is the northernmost city in the world.

It is home to around 1,800 people, most of whom are Norwegians, making it the northernmost city in the world with a large population.

There is also a newspaper in the city, the Svalbard Post, which is the northernmost post office in the world.

It's actually quite close to the northernmost tip of Greenland, just a stretch of the Greenland Sea.

The ship used to pass through the Fram Strait, which only took hundreds of nautical miles and took less than two days to arrive.

In fact, Bi Fang could have made a direct direct flight, but he still chose to go to Svalbard first, and then take a cruise to Greenland.

One is to see the beautiful Svalbard archipelago.

The Arctic is very wide, and can refer to the vicinity of the Arctic Circle or the North Pole at 90°N.

If you're a traveler, you'll have to go to Svalbard, the home of polar bears, which is cold, but not excessively cold, and a chunky puffer jacket is enough.

You can see the aurora borealis during the day, as well as free polar bears, Greenland whales, and houses nestled in the snow.

There are no high-rise buildings, and as a tourist destination, it is not as crowded and peaceful as other places.

The reason why I didn't come back after surviving......

Bi Fang suspected that after a hundred days, he would have lost any interest in traveling at all, so it was better to leave a good memory for himself first.

The second is to give your body an adaptation period.

From a high temperature area of more than 30 degrees Celsius, suddenly running to a low temperature area of minus 340 degrees, the temperature difference of more than 60 degrees is a severe test for the body.

Bi Fang didn't want to fall ill as soon as he got off the plane, just buffered through Svalbard, one day of play, two days of cruise, enough.

I took out my mobile phone and checked the temperature that day, minus three degrees.

Walking around the airport, you can even see young and beautiful girls showing their smooth ankles.

I hope they won't have rheumatism and arthritis when they're thirty or forty years old, Bi Fang sent out his best wishes.

In the coastal area, the humidity is high and the temperature is low, and the cold can easily invade the body, and the damage is still quite large.

"Everyone should still pay attention to keeping warm in winter." Bi Fang specially admonished the audience in the live broadcast room.

As soon as he got off the plane, Bi Fang turned on the live broadcast, also wanting the audience to enjoy the natural scenery together.

Perhaps the attraction of the North Pole was too great, and it didn't take long for hundreds of thousands of viewers to gather in the live broadcast room.

Speaking of traveling, the audience in the live broadcast room is really addicted, and there is a live broadcast almost every day.

No, it was broadcast again two days after I came back from Yangguo, and it was still a completely different scene from the sunny beach of Yangguo.

It's as if from summer to winter all at once.

Everyone's clothes became bloated, especially for most of the audience who were still in the height of summer, it was a very strange feeling, as if entering a fairy tale world.

Walking out of the airport in the city of Langyin, the capital of Svalbard, Bi Fang saw a striking "Tourist Notice" at a glance.

It was densely packed with prohibitions.

It is forbidden to litter, to hunt or alarm birds and beasts, to plant trees, to pick flowers, or to destroy cultural relics......

[Damn, this is too strict, isn't it? 】

[What kind of strictness is this.

。 What should civilized tourists do? 】

So the audience's impression that as a tourist city, shouldn't there be a welcome slogan?

As a result, I can't do this, I can't do that, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

Bi Fang smiled, and instead of responding, he told a story.

"On June 17, 1596, a Dutch seafaring expedition saw an island almost covered in snow and ice on the endless sea.

Steep mountain peaks, towering above the snow.

At that moment, the entire sailing team was almost crazy. It's definitely a new continent, a new continent that has never been discovered. This is the first time that Svalbard has been presented to the world. ”

"That adventurer is the Dutch explorer Wilhelm Barents."

"William found a large number of Greenland whales in the nearby waters, and since then three hundred years of European plundering of whale resources in this terra nullius began."

Since then, more and more adventurers have arrived. Especially after the discovery of the abundant mineral resources in the area, it has attracted more avid adventurers. ”

In the next story, the audience has a faint guess.

Bi Fang sighed and chatted as he walked along the road.

"The universe is immense, and mankind has never stopped exploring.

The three places of the Arctic, the Antarctic, and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau have always wanted to step into that special land because of their special geographical location.

As the closest habitable area to the Arctic, the Svarna archipelago undoubtedly provides living conditions for exploring the Arctic. ”

"In the museum here, there is a copper engraving from 1791 that faithfully reproduces the scene at that time."

Bi Fang followed the travel guide and saw this copper engraving.

On the sea, dozens of fishing boats are floating, and whalers hold harpoons and stab whales with huge jets of water; On the shore, hunters shoot polar bears and seals with rifles.

Nature's gifts, under people's greed, appear extremely vulnerable.

All this has greatly reduced many local organisms, and some organisms are even on the verge of extinction.

It was not until after the signing of the Treaty of Svalbard that Norway was confirmed that the sovereignty of the area belonged to Norway, and a relatively complete ecological protection law was gradually established and the environment was gradually protected.

It's easy to destroy, but it's incredibly difficult to recover.

And this is not a one-man effort to restore Svalbard, it will depend on the joint efforts of everyone who comes here.

This almost strict "environmental protection regulations" are one of the efforts, and the consciousness of tourists, residents, and scientific researchers is a major driving force for environmental change.

Since then, the environment of the archipelago has been gradually and effectively protected.

Only in this way will Bi Fang see the ban as soon as he goes out, not welcome.

"But there is also good news for us Chinese tourists."

Bi Fang rolled up the travel guide and explained, "On February 9, 1920, we were among the countries that signed this treaty, which means that Huaxia had the right to develop this land. ”

"We can do any non-military activities on this land, and citizens can freely enter and leave Svalbard."

"The only problem is that there are only Oslo and Troms in Norway, and there are flights from SAS and Norwegian Airlines, so you still need to apply for a Schengen visa."
