Five tourist attractions in Norway:

Northern lights:

The Northern lights are a big tourist attraction that can be seen through the Arctic winter from October to March, though there is never really a guarunteed time when they dance across the night sky. Northern lights can be found on the Norwegian sea, which is east of Iceland.

Wildlife watching:

Some different animals and wildlife you may stumble upon while on this Norwegian trek are: polar bears (only in Svalbard), arctic foxes, reindeer, musk ox, and elk. Bird and whale watching is a favorite, too. A popular place to watch for wildlife is Jotunheimen National Park, and it is Southwest of the Rondane National Park.

Svalbard:

Svalbard is a Norwegian archipelago that is in between Norway and the North Pole. 60% of it is covered in glaciers, and it also holds one-sixth of the world's population of polar bears. Svlbard is one of the continent's last big wilderness areas. It's North of Norway's mainland, and East of Greenland.

 

Oslo:

Oslo is the capital of Norway. It has many museums and amazing art galleries, plus a new, glacier white, opera house. Oslo is East of Sandvika and also west of Lillestrom.

Pulpit rock:

Over 600m above the water, this cliff is extremely eye-catching to those who are visiting Norway. The hike up to the rock takes about two hours, and it takes a full-day trip from Stavanger. Pulpit Rock is North of Lysebotn-Forsand and East of Revsvatnet.
