    The Longyearbyen Sundial serves as a reminder of how the sun in the Arctic never rises or falls above the horizon for months at a time – experiencing the midnight sun in summer and the polar night in winter. It's more than just a timepiece – it's a symbol of the fascinating interplay of light and darkness in the Arctic. 🌞🕰️❄️
