Imagine an entire city shutting its lights off to witness the glorious games of nature? Imagine tiny little houses under the majestic sky that blaze with a million shades of colours?
Done?
That¡¯s what happened in Reykjavik last week. Located on the coast of Iceland, the capital city scheduled to shut its lights between 10-11 pm to welcome the Northern Lights.
Locals were also asked to keep the lights?off inside their homes to ensure that everyone is able to witness the magnificence.
They were asked to drive carefully on the darker-than-usual streets, and the fire, police and power company were warned in advance, according to Iceland Monitor.
In fact, the world-famous glass fa?ade also participated in the event by turning the lights off.
Locals and visitors caught the stunning look of the lights and videos were uploaded on social media.
The display of aurora borealis swooped people off their feet. If you want to catch an official video, check this out.?This short film was shot entirely in the centre of Reykjav¨ªk, Iceland sometime last year.?
