Tjensvoll: Madlaveien

Built around North Sea ports and the fertile farmland of Jæren, Rogaland grew into one of Norway’s leading maritime and energy regions. Stavanger, its largest city, is closely associated with the country’s offshore petroleum industry and preserves the 12th-century Stavanger Cathedral at its centre. The coast shifts from the long, open beaches of Jæren to islands and sheltered sounds, while Lysefjord cuts deep into the mountains farther east. Preikestolen, the celebrated rock plateau above the fjord, is among the area’s best-known landmarks.
