4. History:
Norwegians, like the Danes and Swedes, are of Teutonic origin. The Norsemen, also known as
Vikings, ravaged the coasts of northwest Europe from the 8th to the 11th century and were
ruled by local chieftains. Olaf II Haralson became the first effective king of all Norway in 1015
and began converting the Norwegians to Christianity. After 1442, Norway was ruled by Danish
kings until 1814, when it was united with Sweden—although retaining a degree of independence
and receiving a new constitution—in an uneasy partnership. In 1905, the Norwegian
parliament arranged a peaceful separation and invited a Danish prince to the Norwegian
throne—King Haakon VII. A treaty with Sweden provided that all disputes be settled by
arbitration and that no fortifications be erected on the common frontier.

10. For us, the top attraction in Norway is the North Cape. A quarter of a
million tourists visit the North Cape each summer, making it one
of Norway's top sights. The North Cape is a monumental natural
experience offering breathtaking views, unusual climatic
conditions, the dramatic cliff itself...and of course the fact that
one is standing at
Europe's northern
end. You'll find
the North
Cape in the
region of
Finnmark.

11. This is a top attraction in Norway that takes place no matter what the weather is.
It also made the list of the ! Walk toward the Royal
Palace in Oslo and witness the "royal" event at 1:30 pm - 2:10 pm daily.

12. The beauty of the Geirangerfjord with its waterfalls &
cliffs is hard to surpass. And if you haven't seen the
Geirangerfjord, then you really haven't seen all
of Norway. On a map, you'll find the Geirangerfjord
about halfway between Trondheim & Bergen.
Popular activities
include, hiking,
fishing, and boating.
