10 Amazing Foreign Vacation Destinations You Haven’t Considered
3. Bergen, Norway
Surrounded by seven hills and seven fjords, Bergen is an utterly beguiling city. The beautiful Unesco World Heritage listed Bergen as its centrepiece, and nature, be that mountains, fjords, or the sea, is never far away. But you’ll also discover a dynamic cultural life, one a city 10 times its size would be proud of. Dive into its booming local food and coffee scene, fascinating art collections, and excellent music venues.
Many visitors fall in love with Norway’s second-largest city at first sight. Seven rounded lush mountains, pastel wood houses, the historic wharf, winding cobblestone streets, and Hanseatic relics all make it a place of enchantment. Surrounded by forested mountains and fjords, it’s only natural that the city is known as the gateway to the fjords, and most Bergeners feel at home either on the mountains (skiing, hiking, walking, or at their cabins) or at sea (fishing and boating).
