Norway always reminds you of the famous classic “The Forest of Norway“. There are many mountains, about half are villages in the forest of birch and fires are so close, but the two are not as illegal as the jungle and not as deep as the feelings of the writer. The Norwegians love forests. Either the forests, the need for public or individually by law, people, after being cut in seeding time-limited possession reseed.

Norwegians go to forest as usual as us go to Square on weekends. Take a walk in the forest and fishing, climbing, and wild mushrooms in the deep forests or mountains. I heard there is a cable in the deep forest with a mailbox before, people who have money they can then keep it. It will clean the house and placed a bouquet of wildflowers in the courtroom during the descent, which is used to accommodate the next guest.

In fact, in the capital, Oslo, with a population of 500,000 inhabitants, in the forest and green land for 75% of what model you have, the Northern Europeans harmonious relationship with nature has become. Oslo means “valley of God” in the original and level of Piedmont as well. Oslo is located on the liquidation of Oslo Bay Point, which is surrounded by ocean and forest.

Urban Construction Oslo accords attention to the deep color of the Middle Ages and the uniqueness of Northern Europe held. There are many buildings 6-7 storeys� instead of skyscrapers on both sides of the street, with a little grass and flowers various, so beautiful in the sun. In comparison with cities of Western Europe and Southern Europe, people in the street are much less. It is so common that many people drink coffee, outdoor cafes and going to pause allowed in parks. A stroll through Oslo, I found those landscapes and scenery, the villages, which also has a number of northern Europe.
