Bergen

Norway

Best for: Sea, Rain, Mild, Architecture, Chill, Cozy, Nature Only, Cool, Walking Tours, Four Seasons

Colourful wharf, fjords at the door, and rain that keeps the hills green. Bergen is Norway's second city: compact, cosy, and the start of fjord adventures.

Bryggen is the UNESCO wharf; Fløyen gives the view. Day trips to Sognefjord or Hardanger. Pack a jacket - Bergen is one of Europe's rainiest cities, and that's why it's so green.
