Bergen is one of the oldest cities in Norway, once a site of Viking life and later a capital. Bergen was also one of the major ports in the Hanseatic League which spanned from London to Russia for about 300 years ending at the time of the Reformation. It rained the entire day we were in Bergen and it was generally agreed by both natives and the tour books that it always rains in Bergen! Nevertheless donning both rain gear and long underwear we had a great day...even going up the funicular to see the city view in wind and rain!
In the center of Bergen is a small lovely lake.
