Greenland
(Where Santa Claus comes)
Santa is from Greenland, according to an edict from the 40th annual Father Christmas World Congress.
Ice and snow
Greenland offers adventures of ice and snow like nowhere else on this planet. The ice cap（冰帽）- up to three kilometers thick - covers an area 14 times the size of England, and icebergs（冰山）snap off the glaciers（冰河）at the edges of the ice cap.
You'll experience icebergs almost everywhere in Greenland. In the Disko Bay（迪斯科湾）, icebergs often rise up to 100 meters above the waterline - keep in mind that 90 percent of an iceberg is hidden below the surface of the sea. The world's most active glacier moves 25-30 meters a day and calves across a front 10 kilometers in width.
Visiting the ice cap is possible from most towns in Greenland, although it usually takes a helicopter flight or a boat trip to reach the edge of the inland ice. In Kangerlussuaq（康克鲁斯瓦格）the ice cap is only 20 kilometers away and you can hike, drive, fly or mountain bike to there - and stay overnight if you bring a tent.
Springtime is the best season for dog-sledge（狗拉雪橇）tours and skiing although Greenland also offers first class sum
