Away from cultural splendor, Bergen is a place to swap culture for a striking environment for a while. In fact, Bergen is one of the most enjoyable cities in Norway as it is caught between seven hills at a harbor-side location. Thus, the most delightful activity is touring Bergen's waterfront dotted with old wooden houses set against its spectacular hilled backdrop.
These stunning vistas make of Bergen a city of postcard beauty from its cobbled streets in the very center to its less cultivated edges. Actually, your impression of Bergen depends on where you start there. You may begin with touring its old Hanseatic town or indulge in the modern lifestyle at the harbor area with its world-class restaurants, pavement cafes and stylish pubs.
In addition, there is a cable car that can carry you to the very top of Mount Ulriken and Mount Fløyen, so that you can take panoramic views of the city. You may also prove how fit you are at the Mount Fløyen with its hiking trails.
The best time to entertain in Bergen is May as this is the period when heavy rain abandons the city. But this is not all as May is a month when the famous jazz festival takes place, so you may benefit from both fun and weather.
Regardless of climate, your stay in Bergen is going to be welcoming if you book ahead at Booked.net.
