Are you sure that's Geiranger because it don't like that way to me. The nature around Geiranger mainly consist of these massive mountain walls that goes straight into the fjord:

However tourists have a tendency to label everything in Norway with fjord in it as "Geiranger" or other similarly familiar fjord locations in the country regardless of the actual location.

Wow, I never knew Kazakhstan was so beautiful, I always imagined it was like Mongolia, just Steppe and plains of grass.

Looks barren.

Those panos of the fjords are stunning and heartbreaking. Heartbreaking in that I know that I'll never be able to develop the fitness to actually climb any of those peaks and see those views for myself.
