- Fløyen - The line you see here is for the Mont Floyen funicular, a top attraction in the city. Bergen, known as the city of seven hills, features Mount Floyen as its most famous hill. The Floibanen funicular provides a direct route from the city center to the mountain in under 10 minutes.
- Bergen Cathedral - You are now in front of Bergen Cathedral, dedicated to Olav the Holy, the eternal king of Norway. The Domkirke has faced many challenges, having burned down five times and even being struck by a cannonball in 1665.
- Vågsbunnen - You are in the heart of the Vågsbunnen district, one of the four medieval districts of the city. Each district had twelve representatives who attended the City Trip Tip. This area was primarily home to shoemakers and Dutch settlers who set up stalls here.
- Bergen - At the large pedestrian square in the city center, you can’t miss the 7-meter-high monument honoring Norwegian sailors. Created by sculptor Dyre Vaa, it was unveiled on June 7, 1950.
- Festplassen - You are now at Festplassen. Even without speaking Norwegian, it’s clear this place is associated with celebrations. It is the site of the grand May 17 festivities.
- Byparken - Continuing from the square, you arrive at the charming Byparken with its iconic 1888 bandstand. This green space was established in 1865, a decade after a major fire devastated the city center.
- St John’s Church - From the bottom of the street, you can see the striking red St. John’s Church, known as Johanneskirken in Norwegian. You are now in front of this beautiful Protestant church.
- Nøstet - As mentioned, Bergen is one of Norway’s most beautiful cities. While people from Alesund might disagree, most would concur. To truly appreciate the city’s charm, explore its neighborhoods with their typical, colorful houses.
- Den Nationale Scene - Bergen, named European City of Culture in 2000, boasts a rich and diverse cultural scene. It is home to one of the world’s oldest symphony orchestras, numerous international festivals, quality museums, and the country’s first national theatre, which you see before you.
- Nordhordland District Court - The small square of Tårnplassen reveals the Bergen courthouse. The entrance is adorned with four three-meter-high statues representing the cardinal virtues: wisdom, justice, temperance, and strength of soul.
- Klosteret - You are now in the Klosteret district, less touristy than Bryggen, offering a peaceful setting to explore typical Scandinavian architecture. In the 18th century, the Nordes Peninsula gained a new shipyard.
- Bergen - Take a moment to wander through the quiet streets of this residential area. Notice how Norwegians decorate their windows and maintain their gardens and exteriors.
- Bergen - This bronze statue of a mother and child, created by Norwegian sculptor Per Ung, was unveiled on May 8, 2009, Armistice Day. It commemorates all mothers who protected their children during World War II while their husbands were at the front.
- Nykirken - The small white church you see is the Nykirken, meaning the new church. However, its consecration name is the Church of the Holy Trinity. Built in 1621 for the Nordnes district residents, it replaced churches destroyed by fires, which had forced residents to attend Bergen Cathedral.
- Port Bergen - You are at a section of Bergen’s port. To your left is the Covered Point of Sale of Haverommet, open every other Saturday and offering a Christmas Point of Sale in December.
- Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf - From here, you have a perfect view of the beautiful old quarter of Bryggen. This is the image you envisioned before visiting Bergen, and hopefully, the weather allows you to capture a postcard-worthy photo of the city during your Norwegian stay.
- Bergen - Norwegian cuisine is largely sea-based, which is understandable given the sea’s significance in Norway. Here, you arrive at the famous Bergen Fish Point of Sale, an ideal spot to sample local specialties.
- Shetlands-larsens Brygge - At the end of this pier, learn about Officer Leif Andreas Larsen, known as Shetland Larsen for his role in the Shetland bus during World War II. This Norwegian naval unit transported refugees, resistance fighters, intelligence officers, weapons, and more between the Shetlands in Scotland and occupied Norway.
- Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf - You have reached the heart of Bergen’s history, the famous Bryggen, which means pier in Norwegian. This is what you came to see, the city’s oldest district.
- The Rosenkrantz Tower - You are now at Bergenhus Fortress, the historic heart of Bergen. While entry to the fortress area is free, some parts may require a paid admission.
- Haakon’s Hall - Bymuseet i Bergen - You have access to Håkon Hall, the largest secular medieval building in Norway. Built in the 1260s, likely by English architects, its monumental Gothic style on three levels was unusual for Norway at the time. King Håkon IV had a good relationship with Henry III of England, which may explain this.
- St. Mary’s Church - The church you see is Mariakirken, or St. Mary’s Church, one of the most significant Romanesque churches in the country and the oldest still intact. Dating back to 1180, it uniquely features two bell towers, a rarity in the Norwegian Middle Ages.
- Bergen - After viewing the Bryggen pile side, with its distinctive façade aligned with the port, you now see the face side. This area is the most beautiful testament to the city’s Hanseatic past, revitalized for tourists’ enjoyment. It’s the perfect place to explore small shops and savor treats from various cafes.
