An archipelago between Norway and the Arctic Circle, Svalbard is on Norway’s tentative list for nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are many interesting things to see and do in this seemingly remote, freezing destination.

The whaling and fishing villages have become major tourist destinations where polar bears, reindeers and other marine mammals can be spotted. Most of the tourism activities are done around Longyearbyen, the largest settlement and the administrative centre of Svalbard. Visitors can enjoy activities such as walking through glacier caves, hiking and kayaking.
Home to seven national parks, twenty-three nature reserves, spectacular glaciers and dramatic landscapes, it’s no wonder Svalbard attracts many tourists around the world despite its hypothermic conditions.
Svalbard is destination you should visit in Norway.
