Lofoten archipelago



Finally it came to the place of our Planet! Now we will go to Norway to the archipelago of Lofoten.


You should start with the fact that the Lofoten - a group of islands, which are located in the northern part of Norway. This place is considered the most beautiful part of Norway. Here you can see a small fishing village, nestled in the fjords and the high peaks of the mountains that rise directly from the ocean.



By the way, despite the fact that the archipelago Lofoten is located within the Arctic Circle, in these places is registered natural anomaly, namely extremely elevated temperatures relatively high latitudes this archipelago.



In winter, here are pretty mild temperatures when compared with its location within the Arctic Circle. I must say that this is the biggest temperature anomaly (positive) on the Planet (with respect to latitude). It is noteworthy that in May and June are the driest months in these places, and in October are most precipitation falls.



Incredibly strong winds plagued the archipelago Lofoten in autumn and winter, often there is snow and rain, especially in the highlands. And in the winter time because of the large amount of snow avalanches often. It is noteworthy that of the 10 strongest hurricanes that have been registered on the Planet 2 is passed through the Lofoten.



All of this is incredibly interesting, but the main interest in this archipelago make incredibly beautiful landscapes that capture the spirit. It is so beautiful and amazing pictures that in everything I saw literally brain refuses to believe.



All of this can be attributed to the Lofoten archipelago of the most beautiful and amazing places on Earth!
