Travel Guide
Greenland
“The island has run out of oxygen. The island is swollen. The island is rotten. The island has taken my beloved from me. The island is a Greenlander. It’s the fault of the Greenlander.”
Nuuk
Nuuk is the capital and most populous city of Greenland. It is the seat of government and the territory’s largest cultural and economic centre. In January 2025, it had a population of 20,113 – more than a third of the territory’s population—making it one of the smallest capital cities in the world by population.
