Our stop today is the town of Qaqortec (pronounced Ca-Cor-Toc). It is in the southwest corner of Greenland. The town has a population of about 3050 and is the largest in south Greenland. It is located in the Qaqortec Fjord. I have it circled in red in the map below. We did a quided walk around town then stopped at a restaurant to sample local food - mostly fish and seafood.

a very hilly town
many colorful buildings. In the past, the color indicated the profession of the owner
not sure what this sign was telling us.
