As an American I don't know much about Norwegian cities. Today I am very interested in learning about the top 8 must visit cities in all of Norway. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!
Most Norwegian cities were build long the coast. Traditionally, the fjords and sheltered shipping lanes tied these places together. Shipping and fish export have been major trades ever since the viking age. While inland transportation was very slow and cumbersome. Except for some parts of inland Norway where big lakes and navigable rivers served the same purpose, making a large farming and logging sector possible. The inland towns along these waterways are nice, but not really remarkable. But one town missing on the list is Røros, an old, UNESCO-listed mountain mining settlement.
Summer in Norway can be very warm up north to. We have almost always had nice warm weather when going to Norway. I strongly recommend a visit up north. I have never visited Norway south of Trondheim and I am sure the South is beautiful too. But as a swede living up north I have an easy access to northern Norway and it is always a pleasure visiting there.
Tack så mycket för dom vänliga orden😊 Hälsningar från södra Norge!
3:05 fun fact, there is a statue there of a crying baby called "Sinnataggen", which has had a pretty rough life. Throughout the years it has been stolen, spraypainted several times and someone tried to saw off one of its feet just a few years ago.
Hardly a crying baby, more of a toddler, throwing a tantrum. And a sculpture, not a statue.
@@Muchoyo fun at parties now, are we?
ok?@@Muchoyo
We call him "the Angry Boy".
When I traveled to Kristiansand from Bergen in the summer, the climate felt like southern Europe.
In summer 😅
Well, what do you expect from the Norwegian Palm Coast? Just 20 km north of Kristiansand you'll find the only place where wild tropical orchids thrive in the snow!
Røros in the mountains close to sweden is worth checking out 😊
Yes, Norwegians travel to the "summer towns" - but it's not that much warmer than most of the rest of Norway (other than maybe the north).
It's more to do with the "feeling" of these areas, as well as the coast being very attractive for the boat life, or a cabin close to the coast.
Also "All by water" - well yes... Norway has the longest coastline in Western Europe. Longer than that of Island countries like the United Kingdoms. That's not to say there's not inland towns as well, but they tend not to be as big or developed - but well worth a visit too I might add.
I have been to five of those beautiful Norway cities, Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim, Stavanger and Bodø courtesy of The Royal Norwegian Ministry of Defence and The United States Air Force. I have never been to Ålesund, Tromsø, or Kristiansand. I'll be in Tromsø next month so that'll be 6 out of 8 of those cities. Norway is very beautiful. I'm going to look for a home or some property to purchase. I love Norway❤❤❤
I live In Kristiansand and yes Norwegians from other parts of norway travels to Kristiansand for the sunny and warmer weather... we also host the very popular festival "Palmesus" located on the town beach called "bystranda" with artists like armin von buuren, tiesto etc
That Cathedral in Trondheim is really nice. I was hoping to get you to react to two things at once. Aurora Aksnes is one of Norway's best singers, and she did an AMAZING Christmas concert inside that Church (Nidarosdomen). I'll link to the whole concert, but you can just react to 1 or 2 songs. Then you get to react to this amazing jewel of an artist, and you get to see how the cathedral looks and sounds inside. And she speaks in Bergen dialect for first 2 minutes so you can hear how that sounds too :) Pick whatever song you want cuz they are all amazing. (maybe slowly do them all :)) Anyway, have loved your journey through Norway. Keep up the good work!
And if you ever want to come to Norway, I'll let you stay in our family cabin in Vaset (it's close to Vaset skicenter, if you wanna see where it is) It's a modern cabin with all facilities, many rooms and internet etc. :) Both summer and winter is great there.
Link to Aurora: ruclips.net/video/XXVwFvkNTEg/видео.html
I picked a version that has capture in english, even if Aurora sings in english. Many plp have reacted to this concert so I doubt you will have any copyright problems.
That's a beautiful voice and concert.
I love you videos.. I too am rather obsessed with Norway as well. I am 2 generations out from Norway in my family. Some family is still farmers in Årdal Norway. I grew up in Alaska. It ia not Norway bur I would say its the closest thing you can get in the states. I would encourage you to take a look at Alaska sometime. You keep saying that the US has nothing like Norway but there are a good amount of similarities between Norway and Alaska. It might also be a bit more accessible for a visit for you. Specifically Southeast Alaska if you enjoy the Fjords and coastal cities of Norway. Thank you for sharing Norway with people who may have never seen or heard of the beautiful country and beautiful culture.
Greetings from Tromsø. I have lived in Oslo, Trondheim, Kristiansand, Bodø and now Tromsø. We do also have inland cities like Hamar, Lillehammer, Røros, Gjøvik ...
Lillehammer and Røros should definitely have been on the list. Hamar and Gjøvik not so much. That is, I think Gjøvik is the best designed town I've ever lived in or visited anywhere in the world so if town planning is your passion it's definitely worth a visit but not if you are a regular tourist.
@@tessjuel I also think Gjøvik is nice (and I lived there for a year) though it's "inland", it's situated on the lake Mjøsa lol
But I wouldn't put it above any on this list either.
I do not agree at all about Røros. And Lillehammer is nice but not that much I think.
I've lived in Oslo, Trondheim, Bergen, Ulsteinvik (Sunnmøre), Bø (Telemark). Ulsteinvik was by far the prettiest.
From my travels or huts; Molde is nice and Narvik is the prettiest winter city I've been to. I like Tønsberg too. Some of my choices couldn't make this list since they're not cities.
@@tessjuel Røros doesn't belong on this list, it's not regarded a city, probably because it has less than 4k inhabitants.
@@johnnymartinjohansen I was wondering about that myself but the OP mentioned Røros and I wouldn't argue since people have very different views of how big a place must be before they call it a city.
@@tessjuel To be a city ("by") in Norway, there must be a formal approval of receiving such a status. Røros doesn't have that status. Officially it's just a "bergstad" (mining town).
So personal views have nothing to do with it, it's all about official status.
The short explanation about Norway is simply that Norway is eyewatering beautiful.
If you love Norway, I would recommend the Hurtigruten coastal cruise. The ship sails along the entire coastline over 10 days, visiting 34 ports. Called the most beautiful sea voyage in the world.
Not the entire coastline, though. Its southern endpoint is Bergen
@@Muchoyo Not true. the 13 days cruise start in Oslo goes all the way North to Alta and end in Bergen with stops in most of the "needed" place.
But traditionally it was the main costal route Bergen (or Trondheim)- Kirkenes
I was hoping for a more diverse list, this list just named most of the big cities in Norway. There are plenty of others that are just as good or interesting like Fredrikstad, Arendal, Tønsberg or Skien
it is basically just the 8 largest city in Norway beside Drammen (but i can understand why Drammen is not on the list, yepp i am going to get a lot of hate from mention this)
Skien er et Høll, og jeg vokste opp der.
@MrZedax, yes, please explain why that is the case?...
@@Glundberg84 When you say something about a place were people live people tend to get offended. The other town's that were mentions are the entire coastline of Norway if you mark all 8 on the map you can see they are spread apart evenly, I think Drammen is to close to Oslo. Drammen did have a bad reputations when it comes to traffic infrastructure. industrial costal city and brickhouse town.
@@MrZedax Drammen don't have the visual appeal of the cities shown in the video. So that may be the reason why it is not mentioned.
Frognerseteren (the opening photo) is just around the hill from where I live, less than a mile away. The view over Oslo is awesome and the food is decent.
The hill above Oslo is a really nice place to live. There is a subway, Holmenkollbanen, with great views of the fjord as you climb up from downtown.
- That was a good overview of cities worth visiting in Norway, but the mountains and fjords is even more awesome.
I had the pleasure of finally getting to Bergen and Fantoft stave church last December. 😍
The Opera house was a huge spend. They had to have this special marble, which nobody cared about until it started discoloring from the sun and sea air. Turned a nice urine colour. Had to exchange all the expensive marble
What, no love for Tønsberg? Norway's oldest city, where in the MCU New Asgard is. I know it's not the most exciting city in Norway, but a short drive from Tønsberg you'll get to the worlds end on Tjøme. Any who. I tok my first trip on a motorbike from Lindesnes(most southern part of Norway) to Nordkapp(northernmost part of Norway). And my favoritt pleases was Jøssingfjord, Nordsjøvegen, Gudvangen, Tindevegen, Jotunheimen, Dovrefjell, Hell, Saltfjell, Bardufoss, Storengneset and Finnmarksvidda. But hey, i don't like big citys. More of a mountain man.
I used to ride the tram in Trondheim every day when I was a student (for about a year). It's an interesting thing - because it takes you to the areas of the suburbs where it's too narrow for a buss to really get to. But, keep in mind Trondheim is rather small on an international scale. If memory serves the trip was about 20 minutes to reach the end station.
Honestly Tyler; while it seems you're fascinated by Norway however - even as a Norwegian - there are PLENTY of similarly scenic places to visit without even having to cross the Atlantic! While I've heard all those ohs and ahs from tourists in Norway there's a highly underrated country where you'll find very similar landscapes and towns - the country of your frosty friends; Canada. I've travelled to Nordkapp and Lindesnes + most everywhere else in Norway, and while the country is indeed scenic I have on my trips to Canada seen a very similar and just as dramatic scenery. Also, Canadians are very friendly and proud of their country - IMO for good reasons - and with the vast variation of landscape, architecture, climate++ Canada makes a very sweet crossbreed of the best from both the Old and the New Worlds
As a true Karmøyværing i have to say Karmøy, it might be wet and windy but we got some nice beaches and cute houses like the ones you saw in Stavanger
I live just north of Trondheim on the other side of the fjord, if you travel with the boat furthest away at 8:30 you'll come to where I live, and we typically do not travel to southern Norway for the beaches etc. as we rather go to "syden" on our holidays.
It's always interesting to see lists like this, and as per usual both Bergen and Stavanger is mentioned, my little town squeezed in between both cities, takes about 2 hours to reach Stavanger, maybe 3 to reach Bergen, as both requires a ferry, in comparison, it takes about 6-7 hours to reach Oslo.
Where you from, Haugesund or Stord?
@@Emperor_Nagrom Haugesund, hehe.
@@VampyrMygg Cool, live right outside
Vampire mosquito, I suppose you can fly just as fast as a British Vampire jet😅
I reccommend a smaller mountain town called Røros. The whole town in on Unescos world heritage list. It's an old picturesque mining town with all wooden colorful houses and unique shops and cafes. 2,5 hours by train from Trondheim.
You should check out norways oldest city/town Tønsberg! it may not be as popular as these other locations but it has its own charm and even an old castle tower on a hill in the middle of the city! Certain movies have even had stuff hinted about it including the place "new asgard" in "thor ragnarok"!
I am born and have lived most of my life in Stavanger, but during my childhood we traveled to Kristiansand every summer, I love Kristiansand ❤️🔥
All of the major cities in Norway is built on the coastline, but there are many smaller towns that are located further away from the ocean and fjords, many of them up in the mountains.
I grow up outside Tromsø, on an island called Kvaløya, or whale island in english. Tromsø lies on an island between the mainland and Kvaløya, with a bridge to both Kvaløya and the mainland. The city has grown out of Tromsøya, so there are now suburbans in both the mainland and on Kvaløya.
Indeed a lot is built on the coast... 2nd to 5th longest coastline and a maritime tradition that goes back more than 1000 years.
At several occasions in world history (and I suspect it is so again today), the Norwegian merchant marine has been the largest in the entire world.
Before oil (and still constituting a huge chunk of exports) fish and sea products and expertise was the main export and source of riches.
The nation is broken up by a large mountain chain (some farmers took cattle for grazing across glaciers; calculating in some "waste" doing so (some cattle would fall down cracks and die).
Other times it was traversed on skis.
Seafaring was the main source of connection and trade.
This is also why Norway has so many dialects. Different ways of speaking but a common identity.
That first pictre from Oso is rognerseteren which has sledding i winter and DH biketrails in summer
Frognerseteren, not rognerseteren
Hi .ism from Arendal like 45min away from Kristiansand. South cost of norway is the best and we can take a ferry to Danmark ❤
No offence, but Kristiansand and Arendal are very dead and boring towns. Norway is not known for its cities . Nature is king here, but if you want some towns in norway with a little puls, good restaurants and diversity -Oslo-Bergen-Stavanger and Trondheim is as good as its gets. Tromsø is good for its size. Kristiansand and the south coast is quite dead and according to Numbeo Kristiansand also has the most crime thus being in the most religious region of norway. Thats why i guess? The coast and the small villages on the southers coast are nice in the summer though.
"Lille Oslo er en egen planet". We all loved that. Meanwhile, Trøndelag will never go undefeated: "vi lever i en drøm, en vill en". Those were some of the most memorable tunes from my russetid and the first few years at Uni, :)
Kristiansand (the summer city with the beach) is almost as far south as you can get in Norway, to the southwest of Oslo.
Despite this it’s latitude is just some 200 miles south of Anchorage in Alaska 😲.
The climate here in Scandinavia is quite a bit milder than at the same latitudes in North America. This is largely due to the influence of the Atlantic Gulf Stream, which transports warm water from the Gulf of Mexico up along the east coast of the USA approximately up to Virginia where it then diverges towards northern Europe. It passes north of Ireland and Scotland and continues along the coast of Norway. It then turns south and instead transports cold water from the polar region down the west coast of Greenland to the east coast of Canada / USA.
Hey - do a react on "Ulveham"?
Been there a few times, love it.
For good measure the video could have visited Finnmark, the northernmost region of Norway, and visited Hammerfest at 70 degree nortern latitude. The small city also lies on the waterfront on an island surrounded by other islands. Close to Hammerfest is on of Norways lagest natural gas export terminals, pumping gas onboard gas tankers for export to the world market. This far north the sun shines for more than 60 days without setting in the summer (the period of the midnight sun or midnattsol in norwegian). In the winter we have the polar night lasting the same, with northern lights on clear days. Norwegian cities was historically built on the coustline because of trade by sea and fishery. Norway was and is a nation of sailors with a huge fleet of merchant ships. There are cities in the interior, but they are small in general, with exceptions of course. Greetings from Norway 🙂
Hammerfest is indeed a cool city with raindeers literally walking peacefully along the sidewalks in the "downtown"/city centre.
And you have Sørøya (big island) next to Hammerfest
Well one of the statues in the park has benken painted pink gold had his hand cut of at least 30_40 times
up until the cars became popular. The main way of transport was mainly by the waterways, the sea and ocean. So it is not strange that much of Norway's cities also lies at the water. Travelling over the mountains, especially in the winter was almost unthinkable in historical times, but getting around the coastline was something that could be done all year.
Kristiansand is often called the "summer city" of Norway. Kristiansand also have a big zoo which is really popular and people from all over Norway visits. Even people from Denmark, Germany and Sweden visits the zoo, it's really popular. (sorry for my English, i tried my best haha).
Ser absolutt ingen feil i det du skrev. No need to apologize.
The section on Ålesund was way too short! Aquarium? Fjellstua? Our rescued old farmhouses?
Agreed. Could also have mentioned hiking in the near by mountains or the day trip on Hurtigruten to Geiranger. But also the bit about Tromsø should have included Fjellheisen, beaches of Sommarøy, whale safari.and so on.
Angr, like in Stavanger. Are riverplane, like where river meet calm water.
One significant fact about Scandinavian nations is, that we developed in an organical way from those pre-historical tribes, that came walking through Asia and Europe, when the ice retreated...
Many Norwegians has (or rent) a simple winter cottage, and a summer house.
Not all has both, but a surprisingly large part of the population does (or joins friends who has).
Ref.: You asked if we travel south for "vacation" and the answer is yes
Was that hilly water area from Harry Potter film when the boat sank in to the water
I actually think Ålesund deserves a higher spot.
Not just because it's my home town.
Ålesund is a calm place. Might be a little boring to some.
But I absolutely love it. I have lived in many places all over Norway throughout the years. Nowadays I'm looking at a year on Svalbard.
But no matter where I go, I always long to go back to my home town. There is just something about ålesund. I absolutely love it.
Nice content. :) Did you pick a nation at random to make content about, or do you have a connection to it?
I've been twice in Norway, but only in the southern part.
Although not far enough north to enjoy the midnight sun, you can see the sky emitting a very strange effect at night - I perhaps could best describe it as something the US cosmonauts might have experienced in outer space.
In Norway you can walk any wear in nature. We have something called "friluftsloven" or "the Open Air Act". It is an act law thing wich say that a person should be able to walk and stay anywhere in nature for at least three days. If you stay longer, it needs to be on either ground where no one goes or owned by the state. Anyone is allowed to pack their tent and fishing rod on their back and just dissapear to a lost lake in the mountains for three years to come back as a changed human, or if they wanna spend the rest as their life as the hermit by the lake, they are allowed. As long as it is national ground. If a farmer owns the land, they might want you out. People aren't allowed to build by the shore line anymore because of it. Siticens should be allowed to use the beaches and stuff.
I love that you can take the train to the forest.
Go during summer, it’s amazing! :))
It is missing Kristiansund! In Møre og Romsdal
Bodø is the european capital of culture of 2024 and will host over 1000 events such as concerts, sami culture.
So, this would be a great time to visit Norway, Tyler.
Also it was great what your footbal team did to Celtic.
If you really want to experience culture, modern living, history and friendly people, visit Bergen. Bergen is known for all that.
Saltstraumen whirlpool is the largest in the world, btw
It funny, I've talked to a few Americans of Norwegian descent how they don't know the cities, except maybe Oslo and Bergen, but they can name and pinpoint on the map small farm villages where their ancestors came from that most Norwegians can't place on the map. Like Biri and Dokka.
Do they have Internet there?
Only 4G out on the fjords sadly.
There is one particular statue in the Vigeland's park that attracts most vandalism: "Sinnataggen" (Not sure what to call it in English - "The Raging Baby" possibly 🤣). It's been painted over on several occasions - first time as early as 1947 - and in 1992 it was even stolen, but found after 6 days. In 2021 it was attempted stolen again. It is the most famous statue, and unfortunately also the smallest, anyone can basically just carry off with it...

- They should've bolted down the art pieces more securely to mitigate the chance of such things happening in the future...

Raging baby lol, we call that trump 😅

We arranged midnight sun festival on Værøy. Psytrance and sun for 24 hours, a whole week
Why dont you have all your other channels linked in this channel so we can find them?
They all have different names so it would be easier to have a link to click on. I cant find any of your other channels beside this one
He only has four I think, Walker, Bucket, Burger and Rumple
@@dinoman thank you 💪
@@dinomanI just seen he hasn't uploaded on his japanese channel for 5 months, do you know why?
I love Kristiansand. I have a lot of family there as my dad is from there
The Opera is so Norwegian, it's ultra practical that the roof is a common area
At Oslo.. eryexpensive to live in. There are also people who have very tuff times There is food que in Oslo to get when you dont have food for your fam ily.! Bergen and Stavanger is nicer then Oslo.Stavangerha e bea ches fjords and the Pulpit rock.Nice fjords and skiing mounain few hours from town. Stavanger has also a very old Catedrel. They have found intersting things when they dig under the floor.Like Karmoy where they found an old viking place where tney have an old church from time.Old Skudeneshavn is worth a visit too. Here was the Mechanical Foghorn made. Sold all over the world before the electric came onthe shipsOle Christan Hanse from south of Norway,invented it. He got many Gold Medals for the invevtion. He also was captain and mayor in town for ma y years. And his oldest grandson live in New Jersey Come visit u.🇸🇯n
Norway is my favorit Scandinavian country. It is breathtaking and the people are the same as here. . Hi from Denmark
The reason why most of the Norwegian cities is located by the waterfront, is because of the long coast line, and the cities for the most is old places founded by Vikings. There was not many roads, and traveling on water was almost the only option.And of course, fishing for food.
Oslo city downtown was also burned down in the 1600 hundreds that is why we build a large fortress there akershus to protect the city in case of another war or accident 😊❤
Many Norwegian families travel to Kristiansand to visit the Norwegian version of Jack Sparrow in the summer🏴☠️
12:55 my town🎉
Ice free coast means we did not have to stick to inland rivers for trade. We were international traders 2000 years ago becaus of this. Just get a boat and a crew.
He forgot Tønsberg, Norway's oldest city with ruins from the Viking Age. The town is a charming small town, which also lies by the Oslo Fjord. Tønsberg has been a trading post for more than 1,000 years.
Yeah it should have been noted in the vid. It very much deserve it
Have you ever thaugt aboute the fack norway is 1152 years old (founded 872)
only reason i came here was to see tonsberg
The home of viking ships as well.
U should check the Nordic skiing in Canada this las weekend an tomorrow Tuesday 13 ja, it fun l think u would like it😁⛷️
Alesund ,my hometown....
Tyler never reads comments, so this is to anyone considering going to Norway: Yes, most of the cities are alongside the shore. Top three cities to visit in Norway: Oslo, Bergen, Tromsø. None of the other "large cities" have anything you can't see in any other European city. Like in Trondheim - you can see the Nidaros cathedral, but it was inspired by Notre Dame in Paris. It's older than the US as a country, but still, there's nothing more to see there.
Røros is a nice inland "city" - it's the coldest inland city in Norway, and has a lot of great architecture.
If you visit Oslo, and take the metro up to Frognerseteren - please be respectful of us who live there. It's the smallest train on the metro line in Oslo, and while we appreciate tourists, we also appreciate sitting down to have a rest and not having to hear shouting after a long day of work.
The reason Norway has all these modern strange buildings is due to the Architect company Snøhætta, which for some magical reason seems to get all the government contracts. I think they just start building and send bills to the government
You're an norwegian at heart, my good sir.
I remember the X-Files episode wher they went to Norway. Their contact person was called Ole Trondheim. They had a British looking pub up north, everyone spoke different dialects or American jibber jabber-"I'll just wing it on the pronounciation" ,even though it was gonna be a small fisher community. It looked more like Shetland or UK. Everyone had names after Norwegian cities. the main guy could not speak a single Norwegian word. It was really dumb. After that I could not trust them to do other languages or cultures, because they obviously did no research on the places they were "going to" sometimes
We have a very good Rail and Tram system in the large Citys in Norway. I have both Train and buses right out of my door, and wood an animal life outside my kitchen window I live right outside Oslo and the Rail use 15 minutes into Oslo Center.
Trains don't run during holidays and most weekends, "bus for train" is to be expected and the buses don't always run when it's cold
The reason Norwegians are so fond of Tacos, is due to American oil workers in stavanger, giving the local International shop guy Allert Middleton long lists of what they needed of American goods.Families were invited by American families for taco nights, and they loved it so much it spread.
Nope, it spread through Europe normally and then came Old El Paso and Santa Maria taco products in stores. There was nothing like you describe, I think it came a few years earlier in other European countries+the European island, UK (and Ireland). And then it spread here as well. Ese es el final de la historia.
Why the hell would I lie about something like that. The fad started with American oil workers in Stavanger, during the oil boom.
Taco kom til Noreg i 1965, då Stavanger-kjøpmannen Allert Middelthon byrja å importere varer for å tilfredsstille behovet til amerikanarar som kom til byen for å leite etter olje i Nordsjøen. Middelthon tok inn maismjøl, Pampers-bleier med parfyme, kakemiksar, ulike supper på boks, barbecuesausar og taco-produkt.
It came to Norway in 1965, imported by the Stavanger based shop owner Allert Middleton.
What a lot of Americans can't understand and perhaps even some Norwegians, is that there are greater distances in Norway than the distance between Canada and Mexico. With all those millennias we couldn't jump on a plane, differences in culture is completely unavoidable, even if you should want a single culture.
thats not exactly true. it is 4000 km from palmyra down to mexican border, wile distance from Kr.sand and up as far as you get in norway are rougly 2700km
@@goldeneagle256: Haha, but I thought about the distance in straight line south from the straight border line to San Diego. That is 2200km. You have chosen the longest path, while I chose the shortest, because I consider that to be the distance between two objects. I mean, if I used Hans Island to measure the distance between Norway and Denmark, it would be rather absurd. :)
I want to se American nature, like the grand canyon, Yellowstone, Death Valley, Colorado... So much, like Alaska even
some Norwegians will go to Kristiansand but I dont need to cuz i live in Langesund😅
I have never really thought about it, but maybe Norways cities are all by the sea. Gjøvik, Hamar and Lillehammer isn't though, but it depends on how big your city has to be, because the government gave up on classifying who should be a city and a village years ago. For some reason all villages wants to be a city in Norway. I live in the capital and think villages are exotic as long as I don't have to live there.
All of those are also by the water, though, beside Norway's biggest lake Mjøsa. Many of Norway's inland towns are also by water, either a lake or a river.
I have a hard time thinking of a city that doesn’t have a river, lake or sea close to it. Kongsberg, Skien, Porsgrunn, Elverum, Kongsvinger, Otta, Oppdal, Røros, Dombås, Bardufoss. They all have rivers 🤯
I challenge you all to find a city without water through it or in very close proximity.
Bodø and Saltstraumen (the world's strongest maelstrom), not far from where I live :)
Bodø is a meh town, one of the worst in Northern Norway, and they essentially bought that capital of culture thing. Svolvær and Narvik are more interesting.
Someone actually stole one of the most famous vigeland statues once, it was a whole thing.
of the many places that could have made it onto this list is Røros and Rjukan.
Trondheim was the seat of the Catholic Church in Northern Europe. Hence why the Nidaros Cathedral is so grand.
Tyler, you HAVE to go to Norway. 👍🇸🇯
2:17 Danskebåten!
Thanks, Tyler! There are loads of other great videos of Norway on the Life in Norway page: youtube.com/@lifeinnorway1
No, I have been all over the place, Fjords, Mountains, nice, but visit Sarpsborg or Fredrikstad, its flat as a pancake, Fredrikstad look lice Venice, short trip to Sweden, and it smells like industries and a few 110m smokestacks to behold, and the waterfall Sarpen
I didn't know that we had real cities in Norway and I live here in the oldest town in the country, Tønsberg.
Earth.Heck of a thing!
Better than Mars I’d argue.
If you have not been to Norway yet, you should come and travel around . I love Your videos , greetings from Kristiansand .
I’m from Førde in Norway
Bro, it seems like you'd be over the top happy to live in Norway😂
Quick question about your setup Tyler, is your webcam set to a lower resolution than its maximum? To me it seems that your webcam is 720 or lower, your face is quite smudged and pixelated.
The most common comments about Vigelands sculpture park is: Oh they are all nude, its indecent... Lmao
There have been sculptures that have been damaged unfortunately, but they have been repaired
The building isn't necessarily built on the water, but it's often built very near the water
a friend broke into a stave church to film a black metal music video of all things once and almost set the entire building ablaze with some candles. They managed to avoid it tho but yeah that was a story...hehe
Greetings from Bergen! The most beautiful city in Norway 🇳🇴 😊
Bryggen in Bergen has burnt down several times, because they insist of keeping the same style
