Norway is often called the most beautiful country in Europe, or sometimes even the whole world, it is a matter of a debate if it is true or not, however, one thing is a fact – It is an ultimate destination for the travellers. Being as beautiful as Norway is, it is often seen to be the best destination for nature lovers, travel bloggers, and photographs that can capture just every moment and every landscape of the country. Breathtaking sceneries, fortresses, aurora borealis or so-called northern lights, beautiful lakes found in the magnificent mountains, characteristic architecture, everything in Norway is set up to make your mind calm and your Instagram profile shine even more. Moreover, in 2017 Norway was named as the happiest country on earth, and while traveling there you can experience it yourself.

But we need to make it clear that this place is definitely not great for active vacation lovers who enjoy big parties, overwhelming activities or casual night outs in fancy casinos. In fact, there is only one Casino in Oslo, other than that, visitors of the city or the citizens usually enjoy Norwegian mobile casinos instead. Norway is also not very famous for its active nightlife, but instead of having Las-Vegas-like nights there, you can enjoy peaceful nights under the northern lights.
