Our 10 Favorite Photos from Bergen, Norway

As part of our 1 month InterRail trip through Europe, we spent 3 beautiful days in Bergen, as Guests of Honor of Bergen Tourism Board. During this period, we literally took thousands of photos, but after a quick look, these are our favorite so far.

In March 2012 we had been to Sherbrooke of Quebec for vacation and had our accommodation in Hotel Le President… and had been to Parc National du Mont Oxford, Golf club and many more beautiful locations… very memorable

  15. We were just in Bergen as a stop on our Holland America cruise around Norway. Spent $20 on a bowl of soup in the fish market (I guess that was our authentic Norway experience...everything was SOOO expensive there!)

    I am glad we went on a cruise...if we had not been eating and sleeping on the ship I am not sure if we could have afforded to go.

    Beautiful photos, thanks for sharing!

    I live in Bergen, and it's nice to see you tourists enjoy Bergen.
    People in Bergen are proud about living in the most beautiful city in bergen;)
    Thanks for a very nice review from Bergen!

    For other people who wanna go, bring your hiking shoes if you like hiking. There's 7 mountains surrounding the city, and all of them are very popular to hike.

    In the end of may it's the official 7-mountain trip where almost 10 000 people, from kindergarden kids to pensionists, walk the 7 mountains on one day. Lovely (but heavy) trip.

    To Shanna Schultz: Bergen, and Norway in general is expensive, but if you go to ultratourist places like the fish market an buy food, of course it's expensive. If you look up places before you go, you can find cheaper places though.

    If anybody wants more information of "hidden treasures" in Bergen, just send me a message on facebook:)
