St. Petersburg, Russia experiences the phenomenon of "White Nights" in June and July due to its high latitude. During this time, the sun only dips below the horizon briefly, keeping the sky bright throughout the night. This unique phenomenon occurs because St. Petersburg is located near the Arctic Circle, where the sun does not fully set during the summer months.
