Lofoten, located in Nordland County, Norway, is an archipelago in northern Norway. The entire archipelago is within the Arctic Circle, with a cold climate, picturesque scenery and sparsely populated. The main inhabitants are Vikings, with a population of about 24,500 people.

Formed by glaciers, the Lofoten Islands are separated from the Norwegian mainland by the Vestfjorden Fjord. From a distance, the archipelago appears to be connected together, so the locals also refer to it as the "Lofoten Wall".

As for the humans living here, they have made fishing one of their main economic activities from the very beginning of history. The warm North Atlantic current makes the winter here relatively warm and humid, and the lush grass on the hillside is very conducive to grazing herds.

But trees are not immune to the ravages of the wind here. The roofs of the buildings here are mostly made of thick stone slabs, and they are usually fixed to the ground with ropes to prevent them from being blown away by hurricanes.

In recent years, the number of fishermen and artists on the island of Lofoten has decreased, but the number of tourists and artists has increased. The huts of the fishermen who made Lofoten's history are now holiday retreats for tourists who come on holiday. The painters who were drawn to the Lofoten daylight became more and more known.

Andenes is a town in Norway, under the jurisdiction of Nordland County. It is located in the northwest of Norway, about 300 kilometers away from the Arctic Circle, with an area of 1.89 square kilometers, an average annual rainfall of 787 mm, and a population of 2,602 in 2009.

Each house in Norwegian House is exquisitely designed, and the most famous one is its sauna room, which is one of the most important ways for local people to keep warm and enjoy life. The sauna room is a special facility in the wooden house.

There is a pit in the center of the house. The pit is covered with pebbles, and a circle of wooden boards is used around it to sit and rest during bathing. There are no windows on the four walls of the house, and only the roof has a chimney channel shared with the kitchen, which is very conducive to the insulation of the room.

The shared chimney can not only exhaust smoke and ventilate but also share resources. The Norwegian design is indeed seamless. When taking a sauna, local residents use charcoal to light a dark fire and heat the pebbles in the pit.

Then pour some water on the stones from time to time, let the water vapor evaporate and rise in the whole room so that the body and mind of the bather can be warmed and relaxed to the greatest extent. A traditional Norwegian wooden house consists of three parts: an elevated foundation, a wall and a roof.

The foundation is generally made of large pieces of heavy wood. On the built foundation, logs are used to build the wall.

In order to keep warm from the cold, and keep out the snow and wind, the houses are built very long but relatively low, with solid and heavy walls. The windows are generally opened very small.

The local farmers in Norway do not use a single nail in the whole process of building the house; they are all connected by wooden tenons, and the joints between the logs are tight so that no cold wind can blow in during winter. This kind of wooden house has very good thermal insulation and can firmly block the severe cold of the polar region.
