Bergen - Norway

Characterized by an intriguing blend of small, older, colorful wooden houses and more modern steel and glass structures, central Bergen is both architecturally interesting and picturesque. However, surrounded by mountains and fjords, Bergen has something for nature lovers and fans of the great outdoors, too. The city offers stunning panoramic views and scenic hiking trails. As the second-largest city in Norway, Bergen might have a small-town feel, but it has big things to offer visitors. It almost begs to be explored as it is nestled under not five, not six, but seven mountains!
