The Town that Gets its Light from Giant Mirrors
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 вер 2018
- Rjukan sits in a deep-cut valley between two imposing mountains. Rjukan suffers from 6 months of the year without light, 3 more than the much more northern town of Tromso. This isn't because the sun doesn't make it over the horizon in this area, it's because Rjukan spends its life in the shadow of the surrounding mountains.
For most of the town's history, Rjukan has existed in these depressing shadows, that is until giant mirrors were installed to light up the town square.
