点评:It was a fascinating experience to visit Arctic circle centre in Saltfjellet mountain plateau. The centre was surrounded by beautiful terrain to all directions with an undulating and mountainous landscape. On these mountains there were plenty of areas still covered with snow. At the entrance there was a column made from a polished rock having a beautiful grain to mark the entry point to Arctic circle that is 66o 33’N. The dome shaped or igloo like building of the centre itself was very picturesque. The building housed a cinema where we were able to watch a beautiful documentary about the arctic region and current challenges. It was most colourful with filming done in the height of winter. The documentary was extremely informative and educational. Centre had lot of exhibits that included a stuffed Reindeer, Moose, Polar bear, Arctic fox, Arctic wolf, Grizzly bear, Lynx, Arctic squirrel and many other mammals. There were many displays and loads of information to the visitor. Legendary Norwegian trolls and many other interesting items took pride of place. It had a well-stocked souvenir shop that had souvenirs connected with Norwegian culture, lifestyle, legends, nature and Reindeer hides where we were able to pick some items to remember our visit. The post office at the centre had a special commemorative arctic circle seal for those who wished to post letters or post cards and a certificate to recognize and celebrate entering in to arctic circle. The café was very special because their menu had many specialty dishes having Reindeer meat. It was a wonderful experience that we had.
