So, have you ever tried to “abolish” time and plan your life as you like? Depart at 3 in the morning to see the sea, have dinner at 12 noon, and have a supper at 3 in the afternoon. Do these events sound incredible? For us, such a thing may be unimaginable, but for the residents of this “sun never setting” island, such a life has become commonplace.

This is Sommaroy Island on the west coast of Norway. It is also the place where time has been “abolished” in the world. Tourists here have taken off their watches to free themselves from the shackles of time. In addition to this special custom, this small island also has many beautiful natural scenery, such as charming and comfortable coasts, gorgeous aurora and so on.

There are only 350 residents on the island, which is not as large as a community in our country. It can be called a sparsely populated area. Local people mainly rely on tourism and fisheries for their livelihoods. It takes a few days for fishermen to go out to sea to fish. Coupled with the long-lasting extreme daylight phenomenon, the residents’ concept of time is very vague. In 2019, the residents of the island united to propose to the government a proposal to abolish the time system, and finally realized “time freedom.” The original proponent of this idea, Shell Overweeding, gave his own answer: “Our goal is to provide as much flexibility and flexibility as possible.” Residents can do it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Arrange your time flexibly, whether it’s rest or work. If you want to go fishing early in the morning, do it. No one will persuade you not to stay up late. From the outside to this “timeless” island, you will pass a bridge on the way. Since the island passed the proposal to abolish time, tourists who travel here will take off their watches when they pass the bridge and hang them on the railings of the bridge. There are many different styles of watches tied to the bridge. It becomes a special ceremony, reminding people that after crossing this bridge, they come to the “timeless state” at the end of the world
