During the early ages of tourism, the Nordic region was isolated, and therefore, was not a popular tourist destination. The region is characterized by harsh, icy and snowy winters, which may be seen as an obstacle for tourists who seek sea or sun in their holidays. Also, inaccessibility is one feature of the region, which hindered the development of tourism activities and shaped tourists’ appeal. The region may be perceived as an outer part of the world; the transportation systems weren’t fully developed in the Nordic region, which increased costs of transportation in the area. In addition, cost and ease of transportation to Nordic countries fluctuates seasonally, especially in particular regions of Norden. Even if the Nordic countries satisfy all the needs to provide the best qualities of tourism, it would remain unpopular due to the fact that access to Nordic countries was limited. In order to travel to the Nordic region, tourists have to go through extensive processes to get access in the restricted areas of Nordic region. Tourists were required to have a general background check, especially for criminal records, and receive an approval from the government to leave or arrive in the country. Only the countries that have a Schengen partnership, which was “a co-operation between several European countries about creating a region without personal ID checks at borders between the Schengen countries,” have free access for the travelers (Svaerd 1). Considering these strict and time consuming factors, the Nordic region was not well-liked by tourists; therefore, the government decided to get involve with tourism. The governments’ effort to change the Nordic region into a popular tourist destination can be seen through the transformation of the North Atlantic house. Before the government became involved with the Nordic House, it was a cultural Centre on the Christianshavn waterfront in Copenhagen, Denmark, and was an independent culture-disseminating institution run by a joint foundation. Before the Nordic house was transformed into a tourism center, it was a historic warehouse, built in 1767; one could go and experience aspects of a rich culture that very few people knew about. The house was known as the North Atlantic house “with reference to the ocean between northern Europe and North American where cold and warm currents meet and create rich and varied life conditions for the populations that live along the coasts and on the islands in the region, including Greenland, the Faroes and Iceland” (Bogadottir 1). This house was joined by Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Denmark to set up a centre for culture and commerce. For over two centuries, it was place to store goods: “dried fish, salt herring, whale oil and the skins of seals and polar bears, and the traditional goods from the North Atlantic countries” (Bogadottir 1). While the North Atlantic house served as a historical warehouse over two centuries, with the government’s help, it eventually became a tourist center, which played huge role to promote the Nordic region. Through the government’s effort, the change of the North Atlantic house can be seen: the house has a mixture of offices, a restaurant with North Atlantic delicacies and four exhibition rooms where the public can experience a range of exhibition, concerts, and events all year around, which would successfully attract many tourists. By changing this space from a historical warehouse to a tourist facility, the North Atlantic House now attracts numerous tourists to come over to the Nordic region. The restaurant in the house provides various specialties and delicacies flown in from Greenland, Iceland, and the Faroe Islands, allowing tourists to experience different types of Nordic region foods. Not only can visitors experience the Nordic cuisine, but also the North Atlantic House provides many festivals where one can experience various music and art stars in the North Atlantic firmament. The North Atlantic house changes from a boring historical house to a house filled with music including “jazz from Faroese Tjant, Icelandic Joel Palsson, Danish-Icelandic Svare/Thoroddsen and song from Greelandic Nina Kreutzmann Jorgensen and Aavaat, and Icelandic Matthias Hemstock, Sigurour
