Bergen

Bergen is a port city set among the rugged fjords of Norway’s western coast. Like other Scandinavian destinations, it’s become increasingly popular in recent years thanks to its original and energetic culture. Visit the Kode 3 Museum to see a superb collection of work by legendary artist Edvard Munch.

Bergen’s North Sea location means that it’s always been a thriving trade center, and you can learn more about that at the Hanseatic Museum, set in one of Bergen’s oldest timber buildings. For a bird’s eye view of the city, take the funicular railway up to the summit of Mount Floyen.
