Kramfors
Europe is one of the five inhabited traditional continents of the Earth. Physically and geologically, Europe is the westernmost peninsula of Eurasia, west of Asia. Europe is bounded to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the west by the Atlantic Ocean, to the south by the Mediterranean Sea, and to the southeast by the waterways adjoining the Mediterranean to and including the Black Sea and the Caucasus Mountains. On the east, Europe is divided from Asia by the water divide of the Ural Mountains and by the Caspian Sea.
Kramfors is an exclusive tourist destination located in Europe. It is a municipality in the Vasternorrland County of northern Sweden. The seat of the municipality is located in the town of Kramfors. The municipality stretches over a total land area of 1,705 square kilometers and has a total population of 20,383 inhabitants as of 2005 census.
Kramfors municipality features the Sando Bridge, crossing the Angerman River. It is a concrete bridge in one span with a length of 264 meters. It was the longest of that kind from its inauguration in 1943 to 1964. The other attraction is the nearby monument which is dedicated for the people killed in the Adalen shootings in 1931, where the Swedish military shot against socialistic demonstrants, killing five.
Recent investments attracted by the climate, soil, and altitude combination have transformed the Kramfors area, making it one of the most important regions. Even though Kramfors meant the partial loss of its tourist profile due to urbanization, some features of its past times of splendor still remain, with hotels and hostelries that are swarmed by thousands of visitors each year.
