Gamla Stan, or Old Town, is a tiny concentrated region in Stockholm, where the city originated in the middle of the 13th century. Much of the mediaeval enclave has survived. However, it is frequently brushed and painted in the Scandinavian style.
The architecture along its tiny stone-paved alleyways and cobblestone streets around its squares, particularly the major one, Stortorget, which is encircled by historic merchants' houses, is what gives it its beauty.
The Nobel Museum, the Post Museum, the Royal Coin Cabinet, and various churches are all located in this district and several stores, restaurants, and cafés.

Sognefjord, Norway's biggest fjord, stretches 204 kilometres inland from Skjolden's coastal hamlet, branching off into innumerable smaller inlets and fjords along the way.
The King of the Fjords, as it's called among Norwegians, is about five kilometres wide at its widest point, with rock cliffs reaching 1,307 metres high, creating a spectacular spectacle.
The most popular method to see the fjord is by boat, and there are several options for fjord cruises and tourist trips. Many of the better trip choices leave from Bergen, which is a lovely town.
Tourists will also appreciate exploring the narrower branches, such as Naeroyfjord, a 17-kilometre length with rock cliffs that are barely 250 metres apart and soar over 1,700 metres above the ocean.
