Sepac - Main Tourist Attractions
This year marks 25 years since the Small European Post- al Administrations Co-operation network, abbreviated to Sepac, was founded. The twelve member countries of Sepac comprise The Faroe Islands, Gibraltar, Greenland, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Luxem- bourg, Malta, Monaco, the Vatican and Åland. By and large, these small European postal services share the same challenges with small domestic postal markets and large export markets for stamp collectors. Since 2007, the Sepac countries have each issued a stamp in a joint series every other year, and every year since 2013. Sepac stamps are recognisable by the special Sepac logo, which is incorporated in the design of these stamps. The common theme changes from year to year.
Greenland’s main tourist attraction
Ilulissat is home to the famous ice fjord. Twenty years ago, the area was included in the UNESCO World Herit- age List, becoming the first UNESCO world heritage site in Greenland and one of the first such sites in the Arctic. Just south of this charming West Greenland town lies this dynamic ice gallery. Thousands and thousands of icebergs inevitably calving free of the glacier, forming gigantic ice scapes that dwarf even the largest ships. Witnessing these frozen mega artworks slip into Disko Bay as though performing a vivacious dance is an expe- prurience of a lifetime. However, Ilulissat is not only about calving glaciers and towering, elongated icebergs. This location is rich in Inuit history and a paradise for outdoor adventurers on land and sea. A modern and vibrant Arctic city with an abundance of clean air, high-quality accommodations and some of the most exquisite culi- nary specialities in Greenland.
