Cool and mysterious ð²

However, Norway is not only rich in forests,
And endless oceans!
Surrounded on three sides by the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea,
Norway's sea area is more than 2 million square kilometers,
Almost 7 times the land area.
The narrow coastline is more than 20,000 km,
Even longer than the equator!
Starting from southern Norway and crossing the west coast,
It stretches all the way to Hilknes in northern Norway.

The magic of ancient glaciers,
Let the coastline fall apart,
Warm currents pour into the earth,
Thousands of islands have been constructed,
It also shapes the rugged and winding fjords.

Scattered archipelago,
Let's go to the pure coastal town written by Haruki Murakami!

Norway, the "Country of the Fjords".
From the WallenbergErfjord in the north to the Oslo fjord in the south,
More than 1,000 winding fjords stretch endlessly,
Shaping the most breathtaking spectacle of this magical country.

Magnificent, long,
Twisty and deep.
Hundreds of millions of years of glacier erosion and seawater integration,
The "Valley of God" is depicted in the lofty mountains of Norway.

Norwegians like to call themselves "descendants of the fjords". Growing up between mountains and seas, many people are accustomed to driving an hour or two on weekends to relax in their cabins next to their fjords. Especially in the summer of July and August, they will stay in their cabins for a week or two and live a hermit life.

Drink a beer on the cliff, listen to the waves, or change into your swimsuit and plunge into the azure waters. These magnificent fjords are an integral part of Norwegian life and a habitat for their hearts.

There are beautiful blue-green fjords,
Surrounded by steep mountains,
The waterfall pours into the water,

This is Norway's gift to the world.

"Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea". The sea is a treasure on which Norwegians live. Norway's three pillar industries are all related to the sea – seafood, oil and shipping – which generate around NOK 680 billion a year, accounting for about 70% of Norway's total exports.

The Mexican Current is packed with a large number of plankton, bringing Norway a rich fish stock. Since the Viking Age, cod, the "flock of white gold" among the Norwegian population, has been Norway's main export and has been served on tables around the world. Fishing for Arctic cod, the region's most important livelihood activity, has been a major source of income and a proud cause for people along the northern coast.

Norway is also a well-deserved expert in raising salmon. Norway accounts for 5 of the more than 20 most famous fisheries research institutions in the world. In addition, Norway's strict laws and regulations also ensure that the salmon entering the mouth is impeccable in all aspects from taste and texture to safety and health.

The North Sea oil fields are a treasure trove of Norway's fortunes in recent years. In 1969, the Norwegians discovered extremely high-quality oil in the North Sea, and the so-called "Brent" crude oil standard refers to the crude oil in the North Sea production area. Norway now has the second largest oil exporter in Europe after Russia. In Stavanger, you'll also find the unique Oil Museum.

Ocean shipping remains one of Norway's main sources of wealth. The population is less than 0.1% of the world's population, but Norway has 13% of the world's merchant fleet, which is evident in the world's shipping field!

The sea is also Norway's timeless theme.
And the Norwegians who grew up by the sea,
It is also the most suitable narrator of the sea.

Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen,
Using the sea to represent the "unknown world",
It is used as a symbol of freedom, grandeur and mystery.

Without the oceans, there would be no way for humanity to survive."
This is a Norwegian reflection on the relationship between man and nature.
