We wander for distraction,
but we travel for fulfillment.
...Hilaire Belloc
Bergen is situated on the southwestern coast of Norway between two of the country's biggest fjords, the Hardangerfjord and the Sognefjord. Bergen is the second largest city in Norway and is nicknamed the "Heart of the Fjords."
It is surrounded by seven mountains, two of which are accessible by cable car, and entire neighborhoods cling to the steep hillsides.
Near the water is Bryggen, a picturesque wharf lined with colorful wooden buildings that is another UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is a beautiful city and we were there on a sunny day. We took a walking tour around the city and saw quite a bit.
