The small town of Polyarnye Zori, whose webcams are available on the site in real time, is located on the Kola Peninsula beyond the Arctic Circle.
This northern region attracts with its picturesque nature, unexplored places and active recreation.
The most significant attraction of this area is the Lapland Biosphere Reserve. It was created in 1930 to preserve the endangered reindeer and the picturesque nature of the region. It is one of the largest in Northern Europe, because the area of the reserve is more than 200 thousand hectares.
Here are landscapes that are typical for the Kola Peninsula, except for the flat tundra and the sea coast. The territory of the reserve is half covered with forests, 30% with tundra and rocks, as well as some swamps, rivers, lakes.
The Lapland Reserve in Polyarnye Zori, whose webcams allow you to see the nature of the northern region, is located in the west of the Murmansk region.
If you look at the plan, then this is an elongated quadrangular section, the length of which is about 70 km from north to south and 75 km from west to east.
Given that no people live on the territory of the reserve, and it is fully protected, it acquires a high cultural value. This is largely due to the unique flora and fauna, as well as history, because these lands were once inhabited by the original peoples of the Kola Peninsula - the Saami. This indigenous population is even dedicated to a whole open-air exposition, which is called “In the Land of the Flying Stone”. It allows you to find out how the life of the Saami was arranged before the construction of the Kola nuclear power plant and other industrial facilities and after the formation of the Murmansk region. As part of the exhibition, you can immerse yourself in the life and life of the people, as well as see the Sami tower, kuvaksa, barn, hunting pits.
A couple more interesting facts related to the Lapland Biosphere Reserve. The first is the residence of Santa Claus. Since 1997, two projects "New Year's meetings with Santa Claus" and "Forest mail" have been held on its territory. Also, a well-known scientist, Doctor of Biological Sciences Oleg Semenov-Tyan-Shansky, lived and worked in these parts for more than half a century.
The Lapland Reserve is an unusual place that combines both historical facts and extraordinarily beautiful nature. Having visited the city of Polyarnye Zori, you should definitely look at this protected area.
