Visit Norway

Norwegians are a travel happy people, and we any trips down to the warm and good "the South" where we experience the umbrella drinks, great beaches and good food with good wine. But suddenly we find out that Norway is not that bad to holiday in either, and in this article I will try to tell a little about what good old Norway also has to offer.

The story of Norway begins in earnest well with the Vikings. And even if the Vikings might not be the main reason why people travel and vacationing in Norway today, they have definitely been a big story fact when it came to putting Norway on the map for the rest of the world. Why the Vikings fascinate both adults and children in all countries where the stories are familiar, may have originated in the atrocities and brutality of the Vikings is so famous for. And many have to scratch your head a little bit of why it was the sort of brutality in the past, when they experience the country, so peaceful, harmonious and enchanting scenery, which for many is said to provide the purest peace of mind.

But even if the Norwegian fjords shiny and beautiful valleys may help each of us peace of mind, one should certainly not forget the opposition away. Outrageous waterfalls, fast-flowing rivers, and mountains that get the most experienced mountain climbers to tremble at the knees, is also a big part of what Norway offers the slightly more adventurous from both home and abroad.
The cold north country is completely on par when it comes to the wild nature we see elsewhere in the world. It is possible we may not boast wild jungles and exotic animals, but then we see no moose on the steppes of Africa.

Norway has not only natural to come by for those who want to take their well deserved holiday in this country. It is full of history and historical places, we have lots of art and culture, and if you are looking for quality family time in the form of a vacation, there are plenty of idyllic småplasser, as well as great hotels in both small and large cities. It is most likely difficult to say that Norway is a country that has virtually everything.

Compared to some of the world's largest, is neither Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim and other cities in Norway so indescribably great. But for people on vacation, and other travelers, most major cities in Norway to offer exactly the same as large cities in foreign countries, but in a smaller scale. There are shopping centers, restaurants, museums, stadiums and hotels enough to delight those who wish to spend a week or ten in a wonderful country, with an equally wonderful people, where both the country and its people are known to provide more than good enough for those on the go.

The only thing that may not always seem as hospitable in Norway's winter, but winter can be spent on the mountain, with all the words that are part of winter sports and mountain hotels. And if the ice more tempting than slalom driving, it is possible to base a family holiday on this, one of the hundreds of small cozy campsites along the country's pretty impressive coastal strip. The coast is also a dream for existing summer who want to get with the idyll of beads around the Norwegian archipelago. And one would wish for both a ride on the boat, and a day or two of skiing in the same summer, there is nothing to combine a trip to the great Arendal, with no subsequent days to perhaps a bit cooler, but just incredible Stryn. But apart from this particular scenario is not Norway is the country where you misunderstand what season it is.

Autumn is perhaps most the time where most people want to experience Norway via hotels and indoor activities. Season, because, as most people know to give a little unstable (rain) weather even if the sun is not completely forgotten the land for it, and now and then makes a great summer with colorful scenery, both by sea and mountains, not to mention the forest. Should holidays be a romantic trip with her boyfriend, the autumn in Norway more than enough settings for this and it should begin to have that said top hotels, even at this time of year.

Norway should be seen as a country where the adventures are lined up for travel seekers who want to create memories. The country has everything to offer, and even a bit more. It's probably not without reason that Norway several times been voted the best country to live in, and that is perhaps why so many journeys across continents to experience the country in the history books the world over is called the Viking countries.

So you're not keen on either the Mediterranean, the Alps or crocodile country, I wish you an enchanting holiday in the long and eventful Norway! It is and remains our own!

Bon voyage!
