Bergen, Norway

This panoramic photograph of Bergen was taken by James Blakeway. It features one of the most beautiful harbors in the world. The first buildings in Bergen were alongside the harbor. This has been the center of the city for hundreds of years and you can see many of the old merchant buildings across the water. At the end of the harbor is the Fish Market. The lighted pathway is a cable car track that you can take up Mount Floyen to a spectacular viewing area that overlooks the fjords and mountains. What makes Bergen so special is its charm and atmosphere of an old city surrounded by the spectacular Norwegian fjords.
