Ruale's natural and cultural features

Ruar's most famous landmark is the Westfjord waterfall (Rjukanfossen), where the sunlight is blocked by the mountains in winter, which led the town to invent a large system of reflectors to reflect the sunlight into the town center square, solving the problem of lack of sunlight. The town was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015 as part of the "Norwegian Industrial Heritage Site". Visitors can visit the Norwegian Industrial Workers' Museum, experience winter skiing or hike the nearby Hardanger Plateau National Park. With a population of around 3,000 and a cold climate, Ruar is an ideal destination for exploring Norway's mountain culture.
