An Online Visit to Norway

By: Allweb

Norway is a kingdom that is situated in the northern part of Europe. Together with Denmark and Sweden, Norway is part of the Scandinavian Peninsula. The kingdom of Norway has a population of around 4 million, scattered on a total of 385,155 km² . There are two official languages in Norway: the Bokmal and the Nynorsk, but in case you are visiting, you shouldn’t worry about the language as the majority of Norwegians speak English.

The capital of Norway is Oslo, being also the greatest city in this land. Oslo is a city that combines tradition with modernity, being a wonderful place to visit. You can go to Vigeland Park and see the sculptures of the famous Norwegian sculptor or you can go to the sea or visit the jumping slope at Holmenkolen. Other nice cities to visit in Norway are Bergen with many lakes and monuments, being called the city of fireworks, Trondheim- a place with loads of cathedrals and in the vicinity of the fjords and Tromso, which is a very northern place and while you are here, you can take a look at the polar circle. Besides the friendly and blonde people, there are also rare animals that one can see in Norway. If you visit the forests or the national parks, you will be able to experience the abundant wildlife (moose, reindeers, white hares, etc.) and the lovely scenery.

On the other hand, there are many museums that Norway can offer you: the Ship museum, giving you a glimpse of the ancient Viking culture, the Ski Museum and their national pride painter Edvard Munch’s Museum. In addition you can also visit Edvard Grieg’s Museum, which is also a Norwegian composer, and don’t forget to pay a visit to Henrik Ibsen’s museum, who used to be a great writer. You will be able to find the majority of these museums in Oslo.

If you acre to go to Norway, you must know that the Norwegians love sports, being champions at ski fond, ski jumping and other winter sports. You also must know that they are most likely to employ bicycles than cars, and you will see loads of people on bikes, so you can rent one too during your stay.
