NORWAY

in #photography6 years ago (edited)

The Norwegian capital city of Oslo is also the home of the country’s largest airport, Oslo International Airport. Norway, in particular Oslo, is notoriously expensive to travel in, with even budget travelers shelling out $60 per day or more. Tourism in Norway peaks during the summer, though their are brief bumps during the winter in response to skiing and the Northern Lights. Temperatures during the Norwegian summer are quite pleasant, typically between 24˚C and 30˚C (75-85ºF). However, temperatures plummet in the winter, remaining well below freezing throughout the season. One of the most popular Norwegian souvenirs is little statuettes of trolls, though viking hats and other handmade crafts are also commonly purchased.

Found on the northwestern edge of the Scandinavian Peninsula, Norway is country of extreme, if harsh beauty. In terms of distance from the equator, Norway is equivalent to the likes of Alaska, northern Canada and Greenland, which means that the country is extremely cold through much of the year. However, travelers who are properly prepared for the weather tend to find the country an open, gorgeous wonderland. Norway also has a fascinating history and is generally considered one of the oldest continuously run monarchies in the world. What’s more, travelers are attracted to Norway due to the country’s high quality of life. Norway is consistently rated the most democratic country in the world, and its human development index scores quite highly. Norway also consistently ranks in the top five countries for highest GDP. These facts have allowed Norway to develop a reputation as safe, clean and pleasant to visit, albeit quite expensive
