A fjord is something you can only see in certain parts of the world.

Formed by glaciers, fjords are wider than they are long and are either a deep, narrow sea or a lakedrain. They're similar to a bay or cove.

Norway and the Svalbard Islands are home to over 1,000 stunning fjords, which make for great sightseeing.

We browsed #fjordnorway on Instagram to give you an idea of just how beautiful these natural formations are.

The Sognefjord is the largest and best known fjord in Norway. Although it's the third-longest in the world, it's technically the world's longest open fjord since the other two are often covered in ice.

The towns that sit along the fjords are just as picturesque as the fjords themselves. This town is called Undredal.
