All about Bergen

Perched on a hillside at the edge of the North Sea, the picturesque city of Bergen serves as the gateway to Norway’s fjord region. Although the second largest city in the country, Bergen exudes small-town warmth and character with inviting shops, galleries, museums, and some incredible street art. Bergen is home to one of the largest art museums in the Nordic region, KODE Museums of Bergen, which spans four buildings and showcases Renaissance works to contemporary pieces.

Bergen’s waterfront, Bryggen, was once a centre of trade between Norway and the rest of Europe. Today, Bryggen’s colourful timber buildings and old wharf are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city itself is also nestled between seven mountains, which are well worth exploring. Hike to the summit of Fløyen or take the funicular up to the top for spectacular views of the city. You can also reach the top of nearby Ulriken, the highest peak, via a cable car. While in Bergen, be sure to try the fresh seafood for which the city is renowned. Local specialties include fish soup, fish cakes, and a steamed cod dish called persetorsk.
