Ammassalik
Ammasssalik is located just south of the Arctic Circle, with around 1700 inhabitants this makes Ammassalik the largest in East Greenland. Ammassalik is know to residents as 'Tasiilaq'. Ammassalik boasts long hours of daylight in the summer, and the splendour of the northern lights in the winter.

Small colourful wooden houses are scattered on the mountainsides, beautifully situated by an almost circular fjord and surrounded by high mountains. Tasiilaq is rightfully considered as one of the most beautiful towns in Greenland.

A small river flowing through the Valley of Flowers behind the town divides the town in two. From June to August this valley is the perfect place to have a close look at the unique arctic flora.
