Homeland of the Vikings - Norway is famous for its natural beauty, fishing industry, high standard of living and hardly the highest prices in Europe. But any high cost is more than compensated by the quality and variety of recreation. Here is the enchanting beauty of the Norwegian fjords, and the mesmerizing view of the northern lights, and the romance of the white nights and the world famous Trolltunga. The local ski resorts are considered some of the best in the world, and the number of seafood delicacies for which Norwegian restaurants are famous will satisfy even the most demanding gourmet.
The sights of Norway will not leave anyone indifferent, because people and nature worked equally to create them. One vacation is hardly enough to visit all the iconic places, but if we talk about the most-most tourist must-haves in Norway, then these include:

Norway has an impressive high cost of living. However, the high prices here are offset by excellent service and a wide range of housing options. There are fashionable hotel chains, designer historic hotels housed in old buildings with appropriate interiors, traditional huts or farms, and even fishing lodges - robu.
The most affordable accommodation is hostels familiar to Europe. The cost of living in them ranges from 40-50 euros, depending on the city. A room in a modest 2-star hotel in Oslo will cost at least 60 euros, and the cost of living in a good three-ruble note will be at least 70 euros per night.
