Wedged between seven mountains and the sea, Bergen is Norway's second city and the classic starting point for the western fjords. Its UNESCO-listed Bryggen wharf, working fish market and easy mountain funiculars make it walkable and dramatic at once. Pack a raincoat and don't let the weather stop you.
