Overlooked by seven mountains, Bergen is the gateway to Norway's magnificent fjord region. Founded in 1070 this UNESCO World Heritage city is steeped in history. Hometown of the famous Norwegian compser, Edvard Grieg, Bergen is Norways cultural capital with a concert hall, theatres and several art galleries. Every spring the city hosts an international music festival, the largest annual cultural event in Norway. Extending your stay in Bergen will give the opportunity to visit the old Hanseatic painted warehouses of the town’s Bryggen district, take a step back in time and stroll through the steep and narrow alleyways of old Bergen, enjoy the hustle and bustle of the Fish Market, visit the Aquarium, or take a trip on the Funicular Railway to Mount Fløyen where, on a clear day, there are magnificent views of the city and its surroundings.
