      Why You Will Fall in Love with Norway!

      Part of enjoying Norway on your visit will simply be about enjoying the present, your surroundings and the fortunate opportunity you have been given to travel to this distant land. 

      Chapter 1:

      Welcome to Norway - One of the Most Beautiful Countries In the World!

      You are about to embark on one of the most beautiful journeys in your lifetime.  Norway has been known for many years for its endless and inspirational views of nature still in its virgin state, of towering mountains along the coastline, the endless miles of fjords up the west coast, crystal-blue waters and beautiful skyline, powder snow for winter enthusiasts, the northern lights, the never-setting summer sun and so much more.  Be sure when you visit to check some of these experience off your bucket list. 

      Highlights

      In the very near future you will find yourself in a distant land of beauty and pristine nature.  Even if you are not much of a ‘nature’ person, very few will arrive in Norway and can appreciate all the natural wonder and immense and spectacular scenery.  This is sure to be a big highlight of your trip with some pictures to be permanent in your memories and not just in a snapshot photo. 

      The people of Norway are very friendly and hospitable and are happy to give you ideas and share with you how it best to experience their country.  In the popular urban destinations of Oslo and Bergen, you are sure to experience a little of old Europe mixed in with modern and contemporary design throughout the entire cities.

      There are plenty of activities to take advantage of the outdoors.  It does not matter what time of year you go, there are more than enough opportunities to play.  Go hiking in the national parks or journey up to the North Cape for more hiking or for more seasoned hikers, trekking.  Or just take a scenic drive.  If you don’t mind the opposite side of summer, Norway will become your favorite winter destination.  Norway’s ski resorts are highly favored for ski enthusiasts.  If you are not into the slopes, there is dog-sledding, snowshoeing, ice-climbing, cross-country or just cozying up in the lodge by the fire with a toasty libation. 

      Iconic Norway

      Just with one mention of Norway, people will automatically conjure up images of the vast fjords that lie all along the coastlines.  This is iconic Norway.  But there is more to this country than the fjords which you should see.  Spoil yourself for one meal and dine on Minke whale meat.  Even if you are not a skier, take a ski lesson or do some ‘easier’ cross country minus the steep slopes.  The sport dates back to 5100 BC and Norway has played a big role in the modernization of the sport as we know it today. 

      Visit the national parks to spot some wildlife in its natural habitat.  You may see reindeer or elk and possibly even, but hopefully not too close, bears and wolves.  Before you set out on your days of adventure, sit and have a cup of coffee.  They are very passionate about their brew here and Norwegians consume more coffee than in any other country.  Whether you are in small towns or the big cities, there are unique and authentic cafes around every corner and on every street.  Along with your coffee, experience the Norwegian waffle.  Belgium is not the only country who can boast a good waffle.  Grab one on the street in between attractions with sour cream and jam.

      If you are staying in some nights or afternoons to cook your meals, do your food shopping at the local fish markets.  When in season, the salmon here is some of the best.  Mackerel and pickled herring are national staples from the sea as well.  If you are in Bergen, eat at the fish market there.

      Unique Experiences

      There are many iconic factors about Norway, however, for most tourists, these very things which make Norway what it is, are very unique.  Chances are, that no matter where you find yourself in the country, there will be something unique about it.  Maybe it will be the scenery, the cuisine, the people, the local architecture or experiencing their history.  There are many things to see and do and just take in just for what is right in front of you.

      If you are visiting Norway in the summer, take advantage of the long-days and the ‘land of the midnight sun’.  In some towns and cities you can take part in 24-hour festivities, celebrations and festivals.  Check out a local calendar for where you are traveling.  Take a cruise, just dedicated to the sun which never sets.  Head north to Tromsø and belly up at a pub while the sun is still up and walk around the city that will not sleep.

      See the Royal Palace in Oslo.  Go to the botanical garden and Ringve Music Museum in Trondheim.  Be sure to see the medieval wooden churches that are dotted all around the country.  Many are still in tip-top shape and many history enthusiasts will come to Norway just to see them and get a tour.  Another part of ancient Norwegian history are the vikings.  The enormous ships are iconic to Norway and unique to tourists who have the opportunity to be wowed at their construction and utter enormity and power.

      Your travel to Norway will be what you make of it, what you choose to see and how you experience it.  Take your time
