Review & FAQ:
The city of Edmonton, Canada is notorious for its cold winters, and although not many visitors are willing to brave the cold, the winter months offer one of the country's best opportunities to see the splendor of the northern lights.
The aurora can sometimes be seen from the city, but the light pollution often dims the show and visitors who want the best possible view are advised to head to a location outside the city. The lights tend to be brightest shortly before and after midnight, and they can often be found simply by looking to the north.
