Another Norwegian City Besides Oslo

Bergen rests on the mountainous western shore of Norway. This town is full of charm. It is nestled in between 7 mountains, it's streets are cobble stone, it's houses consist of pastel colors.


The main draws of Bergen are it's natural wonders. From Bergen visitors can ride through Norways breathtaking fjords.


This natural beauty has also been inspiration for many musicians old and new. Composer Edvard Grieg was born in Bergen. In addition, acts like Kings of Convenience and Röyksopp, both from Bergen, have gained international attention. The 200 days a rain a year may also be an influence.

As you can tell from my short and hardly informative travel guide, Bergen is place not to miss.
