Norway

What do we associate with Norway?

Splendid fiords cutting the shore line, mountain rising over cosy valleys - this is doubtless a characteristic view of Norway. Music, literature and art are deeply connected with the spirit of that country and a prove for that you can find in Oslo, the capital, where Nobel Prize is granted. Oslo is a bustled city situated around a harbour and watched over by a fortress with a castle. The architecture links eclecticism - traditional wooden buildings with neoclassical and ultramodern. Citizens of Norway, descendants of Vikings, are very friendly and helpful. They can nicely surprised when you are in need. If they help, they do that completely with no profits.
