The nearby Fjord Museum introduces tourists to the geographical life of the country.

The tiny Norwegian city, known since the XVII century as a copper mining center, still preserves its historical heritage: its center is represented by unique wooden houses built several centuries ago. Local artist H.Solberg was very fond of Rerus and often painted the city with its surroundings.

The wooden church in Urnes, erected at the beginning of the XII century, is a striking example of a unique "animal style" characterized by the asymmetry of the ornament and the use of animal motifs. The latter draw on Stavkirk a scene of a lion (Christianity) fighting with a snake (paganism). There is a version that the carved panels of the temple depict scenes from Scandinavian mythology.

One hundred and eighty–two meter waterfall is the most popular in Norway.

In the building of the beginning of the XX century, standing on the Bygde peninsula, you can see three huge Viking ships built in the IX century and found a thousand years later in the waters of Oslo.

Gustav Vigeland's sculptures that convey human states form a separate composition of the large Oslo – Frogner Park.

These include sculptures of an "Angry Toddler" and "A Man Attacked by Babies."

A giant cliff towering over the Luse Fjord to a height of six hundred and four meters ends with a flat, square platform.

The surroundings of Steinsdalsfoss (emerald grass, lush forests) are no less beautiful than the waterfall itself.

Projecting like a giant tongue, a section of the Skjeggedal rock is located far from the classic tourist routes.
