China's “Arctic Village” glowed with northern lights magic for the second time in just one month.

The incredible video was filmed in Mohe City in Heilongjiang Province on December 1. The spectacular auroras, visible to the naked eye, displayed vibrant red and green hues, dancing in the northern night sky over the frozen Heilongjiang River.

Visitors from across the country gathered along the icy banks, documenting the celestial display with their phones or live-streaming, collectively witnessing a fortunate moment in the winter night of Mohe Arctic Village.

"Incredibly lucky and excited! We sprinted all the way here – wanted to see ice and snow, reindeer, but ended up witnessing the auroras! It's worth a lifetime!" shared Li Ke, a tourist from Shanghai.

Auroras occur when charged particles from the sun enter Earth's magnetic field, colliding with atoms and molecules in the atmosphere, producing a luminous spectacle. Typically seen near the Earth's polar regions during high geomagnetic activity, auroras, including the rare red and green ones, graced the skies of Mohe, a prime location for observing the Northern Lights in China.

According to China Meteorological Administration's Space Weather Center, on December 1st and 2nd, the country might experience geomagnetic storm activity, with the potential for moderate to severe disturbances. It is anticipated that magnetic activity will persist until December 2nd. Multiple regions in China captured aurora displays on the night of December 1st, with Mohe once again witnessing red and green auroras – a rare occurrence for the second time in a month.

Situated in the northernmost part of China, Mohe is the nation's northernmost and highest latitude city, making it one of the best places for observing the Northern Lights domestically.

Throughout the year, numerous photography enthusiasts flock to Mohe to chase the auroras. This year, Mohe has already experienced multiple occurrences of the Northern Lights.

12月1日晚间，大批游客在祖国最北端的漠河北极村摄到了神奇的极光美景。“我们很兴奋，我们是从北京来的，哈哈我们现在看到了，从刚刚有一点点的红，现在底下有绿，上面有红，激动，哈哈，我一会要去许个愿哈哈哈！”北京游客刘思宇说。通过肉眼可以看到绚丽的极光主要呈现为红色和绿色，画面中红色与绿色极光交相舞动，同时出现在夜空的北部上空，光带变幻着颜色自由舞动。天南海北的游客齐聚冰封的黑龙江畔，纷纷用手机记录拍照或者直播，共同见证北极村冬夜里的幸运时刻。“非常幸运，然后很激动，超级激动，一路的都在狂奔。是的，本来是想看冰雪，看驯鹿，结果看到极光了啊，这一辈子也值了!”上海游客李珂说。
极光是太阳带电粒子进入地球磁场时，与大气中的原子和分子碰撞并激发，产生光芒，形成极光。通常在地球南北两极附近地区夜间高空出现，当地磁指数较高时，极光爆发强烈，在我国漠河等中高纬度地区也会出现极光。
根据中国气象局空间天气中心监测，12月1日、2日，我国将可能出现地磁暴活动，其中12月1日可能发生中等以上地磁暴甚至大地磁暴，预计地磁活动将延续到12月2日。据悉，12月1日晚间我国多地同时拍摄到极光美景，其中漠河再次出现红绿极光，这也是漠河一个月内第二次出现红绿极光，实属罕见。
漠河位于中国版图的最北部，是全国位置最北、纬度最高的城市，也是国内观测北极光的最佳地点之一，每年都有众多摄影爱好者前来追逐极光。今年以来，漠河已经多次出现北极光。
