Day of the Fjord is a holiday of Scandinavian countries. It was first celebrated in Denmark in 1991. In fact, the Day of the Fjord appeared for one purpose - to draw people's attention to the state of nature and coastal waters. The fjord is a kind of narrow sea bay with steep banks.

In Norway this holiday is celebrated for three days - from 12 to 14 July. Local fjords, perhaps, can be called the most beautiful, steep and memorable. Many experts in tourism unanimously recognize the Norwegian fjords as the most beautiful place on earth. The nature of Norway, on the one hand, is striking in its severity and inaccessibility. But on the other hand, she bewitches with tremendous tenderness and some kind of mystery.

In the western part of Norway the rocky mountains occupy a large territory - their length is about 1700 km. It is these fjords that many travelers dream to see. The longest in the world bay of the Sognefjord with a length of 219 km is also considered to be the deepest fjord - its depth is 1,308 meters. You must agree that this miracle of nature must be seen with your own eyes!

During the Fjord Day celebration, tourists can visit numerous exhibitions and concerts, environmental conferences, see interesting films. In addition, at this time there are meetings with famous people: artists, writers, musicians.
