10 Shopping in Bergen That You Shouldn't Miss
The colorful Norwegian city of Bergen is also a gateway to majestic fjords. Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf will give you a sense of the local culture – take some time to snap photos of the Hanseatic commercial buildings, which look like scenery from a movie set. Don’t breathe too deeply when you visit the outdoor fish market, a reminder of the city’s role in early fish trade. Ferry across a fjord to Lysøen, where the former villa of 19th-century composer Ole Bull will captivate you with fairytale charm.

After purchasing a beautiful sweater on a previous trip, I was anxious to visit the shop again. This time, I discovered the gorgeous wool & silk scarves. I didn't even realize each scarf's design was actually an image from a Norwegian landscape until Susan pointed it out. Love the designs & quality of the pieces, and, somehow, it makes each piece even more special when you mean the designer, herself.
