Best known for its deep and complex network of fjords along the west coast stretching from the North Sea into the Arctic Ocean, Norway is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Mountains plunging into the sea, the midnight sun during summer and the darkness of winter with the northern lights unfolding above you are all just part of the amazing natural attractions. The capital, Oslo is a city of grand museums and art galleries to rival anywhere on the continent. As well as the innovative architecture, you’ll find upmarket restaurants and trendy cafes where you can relax after a long day of exploring Norway’s many landscapes.
