Bryggen in Bergen
I decided to spend some of my vacation on going on a road-trip to Bergen. The second largest city in Norway, where I went to university. I stayed with good friends and seeing as I had a first timer with me there we we’re being tourists.
Old houses from the Hanseatic days
Bergen is quite known for their rain and we had a bit of it, but it didn’t turn out so bad for our first full day. We had a bit or rain, but nothing too heavy. Weather was way worse today!
Old marked place
We had a great time meeting up with friends and very much enjoyed walking around in Bergen, seeing my old house and uni.
Bergenshus Festning
We did the tour of the town, and especialy the famous and I should have gotten more photos, but they didn’t turn out so nice.
Statue of King Haakon VII
Looks lovely!
It was! So nice to come back.
A nice place? It certainly looks it Mas 😉 x
It’s a very nice place!
I love the false fronts on those buildings being renovated. Much better than the tarps we tend to use.
They had to think out something. It’s a Unesco site
Ah, that would explain it.
Wouldn’t want the tourists to go home angry.
It has been 3 years since I walked in those same places. It is my father’s hometown and I was conceived there. While I am not really a city person it still feels like home to me.
It’s a lovely town. And it’s not got a big city feel to it. You’re always close to nature.
Sounds like a good time both going down memory lane and seeing Bergen anew. I would love to visit some day.
It was a very good time. It’s well worth a visit!
Brings back great memories!
It did for me too!
What a great tour! I would love to visit. Great memories for you I am sure!
It’s worth a visit! It was a great walk down memory lane
Looks like a great place to live.
I enjoyed living there as a student!
Just marvellous…thanks for sharing 🙂
Thank you very much for your kind words!
What a quaint and interesting town. You always travel to such interesting places!
Thank you! I quite like Bergen.
I love the photos. Are all the streets either brick or wood? That is fascinating.
Nice place .. 🙂
Thank you!
