Yellowknife has earned the moniker "Diamond Capital of North America" for being a prime source of this precious stone. Mining, however, is not the only thing that the capital of the Northwest Territories can boast of. For starters, it is regarded as one of the best sites to view the Aurora Borealis, with thousands of people making their pilgrimage here yearly to view the Northern Lights.
