Tourists explore the large chunks of ice washed up on the beach on March 30, 2025 in Nuuk, Greenland. The Arctic territory is experiencing an unexpected surge in tourism, fuelled by both the opening of a new international airport in the capital, Nuuk, and US President Donald Trump’s recent controversial announcement that he plans to annex the territory. Recent figures show a 14% rise in the number of visitors in January, with tourism operators confirming an increase in bookings since the airport’s opening. Before the opening of Nuuk International Airport, there were no direct international flights to Greenland’s capital, home to fewer than 20,000 people. (Photo by Leon Neal/Getty Images)
