Is the Road of the Elves and the Road of Eagles in Norway particularly dangerous? Can you usually drive in the city and on the national highway? Also, I see that it takes a relatively long time to go to these two scenic routes. Are the views worth it, and are the two scenes similar? If you can only go to one, which one is better ?

Both of these roads are not dangerous, but the tour buses on these two roads are particularly numerous. When the coach goes through the hairpin bend, it will occupy the entire bend, so when following the coach, pay attention to the distance and make sure to wait on the straightaway. Be careful of the coach coming from the opposite direction. The scenic platforms at the top of both roads offer great views. The Eagle Road itself cannot be seen, but it can overlook the Geirangerfjord. The Troll Road can see the entire road from the scenic platform, which is very spectacular.

The Elf Road is much, much more beautiful than the Eagle Road. Both are continuous hairpin bends, but it's no problem to drive slowly and carefully. Norwegians drive very orderly and politely.

If you have ever driven the continuous elbow bend road and easily passed, then these two roads are not special; the difference is the scenery, each with its own characteristics, it is recommended to walk them both, if time does not allow, the fairy road is the first choice.

How to refuel when driving in Norway? Norway is a great place to drive, but refueling can be a bit of a challenge if you don't speak Norwegian. Here's a quick guide to help you out. 1. Look for a Statoil or Circle K gas station. These are the two main gas station chains in Norway, and they are widespread throughout the country. 2. Pull up to the pump and insert your fuel card. If you don't have a fuel card, you can pay with your credit or debit card. 3. Choose your fuel type. In Norway, the fuel types are labeled as "Benzin" (gasoline) and "Diesel". 4. Fill up your tank and pay for the fuel. The price of fuel in Norway is usually higher than in other countries, but it's still relatively affordable compared to the rest of Europe. 5. Don't forget to clean up any spills or messes you make. Norway takes environmental responsibility very seriously, and littering is not tolerated. Remember to always drive safely and follow the rules of the road. Happy travels in Norway ? Norway Q&A

In the apartment where From lived, the hotel policy on booking mentioned that extra beds were not available for an extra fee, and there was no mention of other dining policies. However, when I checked in, the front desk asked me to add the dinner and breakfast fees for my baby, which was more than 500 Norwegian kroner. The apartment fee included the breakfast and dinner fees for two people, so I said that we wouldn't eat here. He said that was not possible. If you stay here, you must include this fee. You must add money. I have traveled to Europe several times, and I know that hotels are strict about per-person fees, so I always check if it's okay to bring children. Only if it's okay, will I book. I haven't encountered such a situation in all the hotels I've stayed in. I think you can add money, but it should be clearly stated in the policy how much extra money is needed for babies of a certain age. However, the hotel didn't write anything. A 10-square-meter apartment costs 2000 yuan per day, plus 2500 yuan for breakfast for the baby. The location is relatively poor compared to other apartments, but since it was the first day of our trip, I didn't want to affect my mood, so I didn't say anything and just added the money. The next day, we set off for Aurland. I just want to remind everyone of this ? Norway Q&A

Apply for a Visit Visa to Norway - Basis for a Visit Visa I have read the visa requirements for Norway, and it seems that there is no specific mention of a tourist visa. I only see visit and official visas. I wonder if I can still apply for a tourist visa? If I can only apply for a visit visa, what does the invitee need to clearly write in the invitation letter? Provide accommodation? His address? What else? In addition, Norway allows for mail-in applications, but I don't know how long it usually takes. Furthermore, there is no difference between a visit visa and a tourist visa, right? I would be extremely grateful to all the experts ? Norway Q&A

My friend and I arrived in Tromso yesterday. We drove from the airport to the hotel, went through the local tunnel, and accidentally drove through the parking lot.
