Bergen has a Coastal climate, and it rains a lot in periods.
In a nutshell
A must see in Norway. (And it's close to the most beautiful fjords.)
58 Reviews any trip to Bergen must include a trip on the funicular railway up Mount floyen. You can be at the top station in under 10 minutes. The views are fantastic to say the least. When we went it was rather foggy but we headed up anyway and where rewarded with beautiful views across the fjords. This is an...
36 Reviews Fish marked in Bergen once was a busy place for locals. Now locals avoid it. Quality is poor and prices extremely high. If you want ie smoked salmon you get it for half the price just across the street.
38 Reviews A little behind the iconic warehouses begins the old town of Bergen. All the small streets with white houses are wonderful. I noticed that most of them are paved, just as in my home city Plovdiv. Interesting paintings on the walls diversify visitors. Even the small table with flowers in front of one...
6 Reviews and 152 Opinions Situated at the very center of the town. All tourist attactions are 300 meters around. Very good...
3 Reviews and 87 Opinions If you like historical accomodation this place is great. Something special. Nice rooms, we travelled...
3 Reviews This restaurant is at the top of the Floien Funicular. We went up there again in the afternoon to kill some time, and went through the cafeteria line here. The restaurant is large, airy, and made a nice rest stop. One can sit on the terrace and enjoy the view from the top. We just had sandwiches and...
Dr Livingstone Travellers Cafè
3 Reviews Dr Livingstone Travellers Cafe is a large cafe and restaurant with an outdoor seating area, located on Kong Oscars gate just a few minutes walk from the harbour and the fish market. The pleasant seating area, located to the rear of the cafe away from the road, can seat up to 200 people and is...
9 Reviews Landmark is a club located in the art museum building. Accordingly the program is rather "artsy" and creative. An urban crowd is gathering there for uncommon parties in an uncommon setting. I went to the monthly "Stagediving" party (every last Friday of the month) and it was one of the best parties...
7 Reviews Cafe Ugla is a somewhat bizarre cross between a cafe, a restaurant, a pub and a nightclub. The sign out front refers to the venue as a restaurant/night club. One website refers to it as a student bar with "cheap beer and occasional concerts". To me, it was a cross between a pub and a working men's...
17 Reviews Bergen is at the end of the line from Oslo which takes 6 and half hours. There is some lovely scenery on the way. Timetables on NSB website., or Bahn.de. There is a local train from Bergen to Voss and Mydral.
9 Reviews The Fjordline ferry leaves Bergen Norway at 13-00 and arrives Hirtshals Denmark 09-00 three times a week. There are plans ahead to go daily soon with a new fleet The scenery on route is lovely but not as spectacular has north Norway.This is a good route , watch the Fjordline site for new timeings....
11 Reviews When you're in Bergen you have to know what this song's about. it's a Must for all visitors.Brann means fire in Norwegian. Yahoo Heia Brann, Heia Brann Blod e tjukkere enn vann. Heia Brann Helt fra Kniksen til Paldan Har mitt hjerte stått i Brann (my translation) come on Brann, Come on...
4 Reviews I was so luck that I have experienced Matfest i Bryggen in 2005. You can taste lots of traditional food( brown cheese, smoked salmon ..etc) and take the opportunity of reasonable prices. Colourful &awesome atmosphere . This year it is going to be held on : 7-9 September 2007
3 Reviews Otherwise Bergen is extremely pleasant and safe town, except for one thing... Yes, the prices! What ever stories you have heard about the huge prices in Norway, they all are true ;) Well, if you stay in Bergen you'll just get used to it, but for a visitor it might come as a surprise. How does more...
3 Reviews There is a park up the hill of Bergen (quite close to the center), that should be really avoided, especially in the evening or night. One of my friends lived there while studying and was attacked by a drug addict. I was walking the street at 6p.m. and also saw lot of junkies, taking their pants off...
4 Reviews All of the guidebooks said you had to visit the fish market but our first reaction upon seeing it was that we weren't at the right place. But of course we were and what we found was a lot of vendors who didn't strike me as even remotely Norwegian selling a lot of fish that wasn't locally harvested,...
2 Reviews There are many places to purchase sweaters in Bergen and the Fish market is actually the best place. Be careful of the shop at the end of the wharf that sells windstop sweaters. These are designed in Norway and made in Singapore. They are not authentic. There is no law on labeling source like in the...
9 Reviews As less bags as possible as you'll be tempted to walk a lot... Usually, on the western coast of Norway is raining but the temperature is not so low (it could be between 7-15 deg. C in May or even 20). Try to find a jacket (and some trousers) as "water proof" as possible and you don't need more than...
6 Reviews A good trip outside (well, uphill, actually) Bergen is Mount Floyen, which can be reached either on foot or by funicular. it's an excellent viewpoint over the city and a great place to hike the local woods - weather permitting of course (meaning: watch out for the infamous Bergen rain). if the...
5 Reviews If you can, take the "Norway in a Nutshell" day trip from Bergen and experience the beauty of the Nordic fjords from the Bergen Railway line and the bloody steep Flam Railway line. Along the way, you'll see beautiful waterfalls like this. I did the trip from the reverse as I travelled from Oslo to...
14 Reviews I found the old building beautiful and interesting. They are all around, in the city centre, in the Brygeen and even when getting further up the hill to the Floyen direction. So I added here few examples.
9 Reviews The snow has laid a blanket over the landscape. It really lightens your mind as it lightens up the dark months of winter. Some times I feel it's a shame the snow doesn't last longer, but on the other side we do have a mild climate here on the coast View over the "Grimstad Fjord" from the Mountain...

Bergen - The city between the seven mountains
Bergen is known as "The city between the seven mountains", and "gateway to the fjords". Our mountains are maybe not as high as the Alps, but we do have fjords that are unique and you will find nothing...
The sunshine city of blue sky, blue sea, blue eyes
Bergen is probably one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. It is also probably one of the most rainy as well. But of course, when I was here is was sunny with blue sky and I had the privilege of a...

Welcome to the wondeful Bergen, as knows as the capital of the fjords. It is the second biggest town of Norway and probably the most know town in the world after Oslo!! Bergen is a fantastic town, and...
City of rain and some nice benches
Of the three largest Norwegian towns I find Bergen the most attractive. Once one of the central ports of the Hanseatic league of merchants which dominated trade in Northern Europe in the Middle Ages,...
