Mount Floyan is near the harbour. You can visit in one day. There are lush trees on the mountain, many of them are towering trees. The air is very fresh, the altitude of the mountain is not high, there are hiking trails, it is very suitable for climbing, and it is very interesting to climb. You can also choose a cable car and a small mountain train, which is also a must-see for tourists.Norway · Bergen

Hardangerfjorden stretches for nearly 180 km, extending from the Atlantic coast south of Bergen deep into the inland hinterland. Unlike many stark fjords, the climate here is mild, and apple and cherry orchards stretch across the hillsides on both banks. During certain seasons, the blooming flowers on the mountains contrast with the remaining snow on the peaks, creating a unique natural view. The views along the fjord are rich and diverse, featuring not only magnificent cascading waterfalls but also numerous waterscapes where visitors can walk through or view from a distance. The surrounding cantilevered viewing platforms and cross-sea bridges provide visitors with expansive vistas. When driving across the bridges or touring by boat, the magnificent scenery of the mountains and waters intertwined on both banks is fully visible. There are many scenic parking spots and trails along the route. Self-drive tours, boat cruises, or kayaking are all common ways to explore. The rich glacier and mountain resources also provide diverse exploration options for outdoor enthusiasts, bringing an unforgettable fjord nature experience to visitors who have traveled from afar.Norway · Kvam

The world-famous Legoland LEGO is located in Billund, a small town on the east coast of Jutland, Denmark. Since its opening in 1968, millions of tourists have come to visit every year. Walking into Legoland is like walking into a mini fairy tale world. Oncoming is a fairy tale atmosphere like spring, with laughter in your ears and colorful colors in your eyes. Of course, the distinctive features in the park are all kinds of lifelike building block artworks. Each piece of art is made of plastic building blocks in a ratio of 1:20 to the real object.Denmark · Billund

There is the famous Atlantic Ocean Coast Highway here. It is 8.3 kilometers long and was opened to traffic in 1989. It consists of 8 bridges, spanning between small islands and reefs. You can enjoy the natural landscape of each small island along the way. When I visited in early June last year, the road was closed due to the filming of the latest 007 movie. I missed the most magnificent section of the highway and could only take a walk and take photos nearby!

It's suitable for young children to play. My favorite part is the microscopic world, which is very shocking! The most amazing thing is that I actually saw the BYD booth. Big manufacturers are really generous.
