Apart from these countries, is there any other one where you can see the auroras and at the same time go to a tropical forest in their territory?

Apart from these countries, is there any other one where you can see the auroras and at the same time go to a tropical forest in their territory? - Drone view of vibrant green plantations divided by long beige roads and woods by mountain ridge on horizon in daytime

Of course, I am including all the overseas territories of these countries: UK, France, The Netherlands, Australia and New Zealand.

In all of the countries I previously mentioned, there is at least one part of the territory containing a tropical rainforest or a jungle (e.g France's French Guiana or Netherland's Saba Island) and in another part of the territory you can see either the aurora borealis or the aurora australis even if it is somewhat rare (e.g again, in the case of France, the Kerguelen Islands and in the case of The Netherlands the northern part of the Frisian Islands).

Are there any more countries in the world with similar characteristics?

In which of the following countries can you see the auroras?

The Auroral band stretches across Finland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Greenland and Canada. We feature holidays to all of these countries, and every holiday we offer has been expertly designed to maximise your opportunity to see the Northern Lights.

Which country has the most auroras?

One of the world's best locations to behold the aurora borealis, Canada is home to 80-90% of all accessible land located under the Aurora Oval, the area with the strongest geomagnetic activity\u2014producing the world's brightest and most frequent displays of the northern lights.

What is an aurora and where can it be seen?

An aurora (plural: auroras or aurorae), also known as the polar lights or aurora polaris, is a natural light display in Earth's sky, predominantly seen in high-latitude regions (around the Arctic and Antarctic).

Where are auroras most common?

The Aurora Borealis is most commonly seen in the polar regions, within a radius of 2,500 km around the magnetic poles. This area is known as the Auroral Zone or the Auroral Oval. For the Northern Lights, the further north you travel the more likely you are to catch a glimpse of the aurora.

Answer 2

Auroras are sometimes visible in Australia, particularly in Tasmania; and Queensland has tropical rainforests.

Under rare circumstances, auroras have been seen within 10 degrees of the Equator. If we count such events, this would include many other countries with tropical rainforests as well. The above-linked event caused visible auroras in Mexico, Colombia (!), and presumably much of Central America. While it's not explicitly mentioned, it wouldn't surprise me if they were visible in Madagascar as well (given its relative proximity to the South Magnetic Pole.)
