About Live Cam "The Central part" in Kirkenes

Kirkenes is located in the extreme north-eastern part of Norway on Bøkfjorden, a subsidiary of Varangerfjorden, which is a vast bay connected to the Barents Sea near the Russian-Norwegian border. The city is located about 400 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle. Kirkenes is located to the east of the 30th meridional east. As a result, it has moved further east than Istanbul, which is one of the European borders with Asia. The easternmost point of Norway and the municipality is also in the east above St. Petersburg. Unlike the vast majority of Norway, Kirkenes is located to the east of neighboring Finland. Because of this, a trip directly to the west from Kirkenes actually changes the time zone forward, and not backward, as it usually does. A trip directly to the east of Kirkenes (to Russia) changes the time zone forward for an hour in the summer, but for two in the winter. When Russia carried out a constant summer time in the period from 2011 to 2014, during the winter between the eastern part of the municipality and the western Russian regions there was a three-hour difference. He also shares time zones with Galicia in Spain, despite the solar time difference of 2½ hours. You can drive 100 kilometers (62 miles) to the south and drive 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) to the Øvre Pasvik national park, reaching the three countries border point (Muotkavaara), where three time zones meet. There are no such places in the world. In accordance with Norwegian and Russian legislation, it is forbidden to bypass the border, as the only legal route through the Norwegian-Russian border is at the border control in Storskoge. You can look through the web camera to the central part of the city and draw your conclusions about it. Broadcast works around the clock in online mode.
