Become a visual explorer and visit the striking country of Norway through 200 breathtaking images.

Did you know that Oslo is the only capital city in Europe where you can go cross-country skiing? Just take the metro to the suburbs and ski off the platform across the frozen, snowy landscape. Plus, Norway has Scandinavia's most spectacular fjords, steep mountains, pretty fishing villages, beautiful beaches--and continental Europe's largest glacier. In 200 stunning photographs, Norway presents this increasingly popular tourist destination, journeying from remote settlements within the Arctic Circle to Oslo's lively city life, from the northern lights to white nights when the sun never sets, from sculpture gardens to immense bridges linking the country's many islands.
