in St. Petersburg June 28, 2006 at 11 p.m., demonstrating the degree of
sunlight still present during White Nights]]
The White Nights describes the few weeks around the summer solstice in
June in areas of high latitude during which darkness is never complete due
to late sunsets and early sunrises. The White Nights are a time of
celebration in areas such as Saint Petersburg, Russia. Owing to the high
northern latitude at 60 degrees, the Sun does not set until after 10 p.m.,
and the twilight lasts much longer.
The White Nights Festival in St. Petersburg is famous for spectacular
fireworks and a massive show celebrating the end of school year.[LINK:
