Norway

Norway 2016

Norway is a beautiful country, and comes very close to New Zealand for it's dramatic scenery.

During summer I travelled around Norway's Fjords, taking in some of the amazing glacial lakes and idylic countryside. The cities in this region are equally pretty and interesting. Stavenger, Norway's oil town houses a museum to the industry as well as the old town above the harbour.

Bergen is home to a vibrant market and Bryggen, the oldest part of the city which lies along the eastern shore of Vågen Harbour. The 58 wooden buildings here date from the very early part of the 18th Century. Their uneven construction would have originally had warehouses at the bottom with living quarters at the top but now mostly contain art and craft shops. The narrow streets and buildings painted in assorted colours really are beautiful and it is unsurprising that Bryggen is listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site.
