A city of heritage, Bergen
Bergen has become a symbol of the Norwegian cultural heritage and has gained a place on UNESCO's World Heritage List. It can be a party just to wander out and about in Bergen on a balmy summer evening. The streets throng with people milling in and out of cafés sampling food ranging from familiar fish dishes to fashionable tapas. During the day you can eat smoked salmon and fresh shrimps on the busy Fish Market, while a true Bergenser will be tucking into fish cakes and spicy ‘shilling buns’!
Bergen resounds with music and has some of the country’s best choirs, jazz musicians who improvise through the night, and operatic singers whose arias soar above the fortress walls of Bergenhus. Art can be created on pavement slabs, and even drain covers are turned into works of art – in a city which considers that culture is a part of the every day, and an important expression of Bergen’s variety of life.
Bergen opens the door to a virtual kingdom of fjords, Norway´s tourist attraction Number One.
