    Winding clear and abundant streams, lush forests, white waterfalls hanging high, fresh grass, red houses scattered in between, and characteristic wooden churches, this is a small town called Flem. In September 2013, I traveled to Northern Europe by train from Oslo to Myrdal, and then took a 1-hour scenic train to arrive. Finally, I stayed for 2 nights. It rained that day, and white fog filled the mountainside, like a holy wonderland. The next day, the sun was shining brightly. I rented a car and rode on the road of the green mountains and countryside. There was a train passing through the forest. Except for the birdsong and the gurgling stream, no other sound could be heard. There are apple orchards in front of the beautiful villas of every household. There are 10 routes for cycling and hiking. It is a must-visit stop for the epitome of Norway.

    The construction of the Gothenburg Opera House in Sweden began in September 1989. After several years of construction, it was officially completed and opened in October 1994. It is an important cultural landmark in Gothenburg. Its exterior was designed by architect Jan Izikowitz, with a pirate ship as the core inspiration, and its shape is highly recognizable. The dark red main body of the building is calm and majestic, and with a transparent glass curtain wall, it presents a rich visual effect under light and shadow. The smooth and tense lines outline a unique outline, which not only highlights the simple texture of Nordic art, but also incorporates a distinctive modern atmosphere. The overall visual impact is strong, making it a very representative building in the urban landscape of Gothenburg.

    Gothenburg is a famous port city on the southwestern coast of Sweden. It is located on the Göta Canal in the Kattegat Strait, across the sea from the northern tip of Denmark. We took a boat from here to Denmark for sightseeing. Gothenburg is a very beautiful city.

    Liseberg Amusement Park is also very interesting. It is located in the city of Gothenburg. It is a large playground. There are many people on weekends and some individual projects require queuing. However, the overall ride is very smooth and basically everything can be enjoyed. There are not many large amusement facilities.

    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!
