The area of this “cold” island, which belongs to Europe, measures 2.176 million km², but only 60 thousand people live there. Thus, it ranks among the less inhabited areas in the world. Around 13 thousand inhabitants live in Nuuk, the capital, and the remaining ones are scattered in about 90 smaller towns and villages. Fishing and, to a larger degree, tourism are the main sources of income. Greenland is not an EU member state; nevertheless, EU citizens do not need visa.
