What is "lysefjord"

Lysefjord or Lysefjorden is a fjord located in the Ryfylke area in southwestern Norway. The long fjord lies in Forsand municipality in Rogaland county, about east of the city of Stavanger. The name means light fjord, and is said to be derived from the lightly coloured granite rocks along its sides. It is particularly well-known by the huge Preikestolen cliff overlooking the fjord, which is a major tourist destination for the region. The fairly isolated village of Lysebotn lies at the eastern end of the fjord and the villages of Forsand and Oanes both lie at the western end of the fjord near the Lysefjord Bridge, the only crossing of the fjord.
