In Luleå, where the sky holds the potential for enchantment, keep an extra eye on the clear weather, especially during times of heightened solar activity or specific seasons. If you're fortunate, the stunning Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis, might grace the heavens with their spectacular dance. To enhance your chances of witnessing this celestial display, venture away from the city centre's light pollution. For first-time visitors, seeking guidance from the Luleå Tourist Center in Kulturens Hus is recommended.

The sister island, Gozo, is well worth a visit on its own. Hire a car or book one-of-the-day jeep safari trips that are offered by multiple tour operators. Upon disembarking, you'll immediately notice the difference between the islands. Gozo has a more serene atmosphere and is packed with lush farms. While you're here, don't miss the Citadel in Victoria, the Saltpans, the Inland Sea, and the cliff where the Azure Window (formerly one of the most famous landmarks of Malta) once stood before its collapse in early 2017.

In the summer, Hägnan transforms into a lively space with the addition of animals, including pigs, sheep, rabbits, and chickens, providing a delightful experience for visitors of all ages. As winter arrives, Hägnan becomes a festive hub with a Christmas market and a splendid fire festival.
