Evening at the UNESCO world heritage site Bryggen in Bergen, Fjord Norway

Stroll through history, enjoy spectacular views, indulge in superb food, and witness some of the world’s most stunning fjords. Welcome to Bergen, the pulsating heart of Fjord Norway!

Even though Bergen is Norway’s second-largest city, it has a lovely small-town vibe and atmosphere. Houses cling to the mountainsides and there is an abundance of old wooden houses and narrow lanes packed with cosy cafés and shops.

There is a lot to see and do in Bergen, so make sure you have enough time. Popular attractions include the Bryggen Hanseatic wharf, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the fish market, Mount Fløyen, the Bergen Aquarium, and the KODE Art Museums and Composer Homes, to name a few.

Since Bergen is a lively student town (10 per cent of the inhabitants are students), there is always something going on. Catch a concert, enjoy an exhibition, browse the many trendy shops, and find the perfect bar or restaurant.

You can easily combine urban life and outdoor fun in the city that's nestled between seven mountains. Take in breathtaking views from the peak of Mount Fløyen or Mount Ulriken. Glide though the UNESCO protected fjords and get up close to stunning nature.
