Best Answer

The Arctic Circle is an imaginary line on globes and charts at about 66.5°N latitude. Locations north of the Arctic Circle can experience at least one 24-hour period of "night" during the winter. At the North Pole, this becomes 6 months of daylight and 6 months of night.

To "draw" the Arctic Circle, make a circle centered on the North Pole, about 2600 kilometers (1616 miles) in radius.
