Ny Alesund
Svalbard means cold land, which is what the Vikings thought of Spitzbergen when they named the archipelago in 1194 AD. Ny Alesund isn´t really a town, but it does have a post office. And you can have your letters stamped with the world´s northern-most postmark. And see where famous Norwegian explorer Amundsen embarked on his lonely flight to the North Pole in 1926.
