Bergen: Anyone who's been there raves about it and everyone else is desperate to go. This metropolis in western Norway may only be the second-largest Norwegian city after Oslo, but it is definitely the most attractive. Fly to Bergen with Eurowings and let yourself be captivated by its cosmopolitan charm. The German Hanseatic League added to the international flair, having built its famous, colourful wooden houses in the district of Bryggen and conducted global trade here. The UNESCO World Heritage Site's network of narrow alleys lined with wooden houses are testament to days gone by, inviting you to stroll and while away the hours. Find out more about the eventful history of Bryggen with a visit to the Hanseatic Museum. Art and culture are a big part of Bergen. The city has produced numerous artists and has top-class museums, theatres and concert halls. Art lovers will be in their element at KODE and Bergen Kunsthall.
Despite its international flair, almost everything in Bergen can be reached on foot – perfect for a weekend trip. Most sights radiate out from around the Torget (marketplace) by the harbour. As well as Bryggen, St Mary's Church, Bergenhus fortress and the huge Håkon's Hall are all worth a visit. You also shouldn't miss the fish market, which takes place at Torget every day. It is a world of seafood delicacies, just waiting to be tasted. In addition to that you should also try the delicious Bergen fish soup from Bryggeloftet & Stuene Restaurant.
On Sundays, locals tend to head out into the unique natural landscape of western Norway with its fjords, rivers, mountains and waterfalls. Some even claim that this region is one of the most beautiful in the world. From the city, you can hike to one of the seven nearby mountains. You can take the Fløibanen funicular railway, starting from the centre, up to the Fløyen mountain. From the top, you have a fantastic view over the city of Bergen, the fjords and the surrounding islands.
The nature around Bergen is so diverse that a weekend is almost too short. That's why it's also worth flying to Bergen with Eurowings to begin an extended trip – the city is the perfect starting point for an excursion to the most spectacular natural highlights of Norway. This is where the ships of the famous Hurtigruten line moor, and within a few hours, you too can marvel at the most impressive of the Norwegian fjords: Sognefjord, Hardangerfjord and Geirangerfjord. How about an additional trip to Flåm, including a fjord tour through the narrow Nærøyfjord or to the mystical Vøringsfossen? The cascade of water tumbling down the most famous and beautiful waterfall in the country crashes from the Hardanger Plateau into the deep valley below. We bet the primeval, wild and romantic surroundings will take your breath away immediately. A journey on the Bergensbanen railway to Oslo should also be on any bucket list.
