Not the best place for a vacation?

The largest island in the world is Greenland, located near Canada and Iceland. Greenland's
name makes people think that it is green, but most of Greenland is covered in ice. How did it
get its name? Well, a man was sent to the island as a punishment for a crime. He had to live
there, but he wanted other people to join him, so he named it Greenland. He hoped the name
would get people to move there!
Despite the size of the island and the several smaller islands nearby, most of the population
lives in small areas on the coast, where there is no ice. Most of the people of Greenland are
fishermen, but there are also a large number of scientists who visit to study the different
aspects of the cold weather.
Greenland also has the largest national park in the world, which is located in the northeast
corner of the island. However, despite its size, its name, its friendly people, and its importance
for science, not many tourists visit Greenland. Yes, you guessed right: most people think it is
too cold for vacations.
