- elmajoe3Longwood, FL19 contributionsThey had lots of interesting artifacts from days gone by relating to Inuit Culture, but the most fascinating thing seen, were the mummies of the mother and child. I was startled, and did not know they were there, and started to scream! It was featured in an issue of the National Geographic Magazine. I was there in October 2019 actually.

- autumncsSingapore, Singapore793 contributionsI was stuck in Nuuk in a snowstorm and I was glad to be able to spend my afternoon in this lovely art museum, sheltered from the howling wind and snow. The museum is admission-free, and the staff was very kind to offer me a museum map and give me a brief introduction of the museum and several major art works. The collection is a mixture of styles, including traditional Greenlandic art & crafts, European-inspired paintings, modern art installations, and posters/prints. It is an interesting place to look at Greenlandic culture.Written 18 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mjw27Sydney, Australia24 contributionsA great little ski resort with two lifts (both pomas) one is quite short and the other longer. Mostly local kids but a fun place to spend a couple of hours. You can hire skis and snowboards on the mountain and there is also a cafe. No clothing hire.
Beautiful views over the water! A really unique place to do a few turns.Written 17 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
