Today, I will introduce Maniitsoq, the city that locals recommended as the most beautiful in Greenland.
The ferry I was on is heading from Sisimiut to Kangaamiuit and Maniitsoq(Red line).
There was a Greenland flag flying on the deck of the ship. The more I looked at it, the more I thought that the Greenland flag and the atmosphere of Greenland match very well.
Kangaamiut didn't have many visitors, so they just carried a small boat and a rider. I was curious about what kind of city it was, but I was not able to reach there.
When I came back to the restaurant of the ferry, many passengers were having a breakfast. Of course, prices were very expensive. By the way, caviar was on it, but it was a slice of toast was 5 USD. I didn't try it as I had food.
By the way, the road to Maniitsoq was traveling between the Fjord Gorge, which is close to inland. It's really beautiful here.
On the ship, there was an announcement saying, "There's a whale out there now, so come out and see." Although it is not shown in the picture because it is a little far away, there are many opportunities to see whales easily in Greenland.
There was a frozen vegetable I bought at the mart just before I got on the ferry. I was thinking about where to put it and decided to keep it secretly on the deck. The temperature outside was low, so it naturally acted as a refrigerator.
I made a simple instant spaghetti with tomato sauce, seasoning powder, thawed vegetables and canned tuna in the pre-prepared watery noodles.
Finally! We've arrived at the long-awaited Maniitsoq port! Everyone was getting ready to go out in line to see if people were looking forward to it. Before coming here, other Greenland locals, besides the police officers, recommended this place.
When I got off the cruise ship, there was a tour program to see if many tourists came every week. For about 3 euros, the guide explains it when you go on a mini shuttle bus. I decided to look around separately.
This is one of the hills closest to the harbor. If you look closely at the middle, there was a staircase made of wood, but it was all broken. I was fine when I came up, but it was really slippery when I came down... It was a cliff that fell when I slipped and lost my footing. When I travel, I have a strong sense of adventure, so I go anywhere, and I almost died.
Here are church and cemetery. When you really go to Greenland cemetery. Rather than feeling scared or something, I think it's a place where a very different culture is revealed. There are things you can only see in Greenland.

Just this place is beautiful...I can't express here with just one word. Actually, it's not a big city, and there's really nothing here. But wow... here is amazing!
There is a 'staircase to heaven'. It's a wooden staircase that you can climb up the rocky mountain hill. I think there are 660 stairs in total. I didn't have time, so I couldn't go all the way up.

I added a lot of colors to this picture's correction. It also makes the texture stand out. The texture of space, trees, stones, water, etc. that makes things look close and distant. I really like it in this picture. And I like pictures that look like pictures.
Now that I'm here, I can see why locals recommend Maniitsoq. If I had a longer trip, I would have stayed here longer.
