Bergen is the capital of Western Norway, which is the leading region for all significant Norwegian export industries. The city is a charming blend of tradition and innovation. Throughout history Bergen has built a strong reputation as a center for trade and shipping. This is due to its strategic location on the coast. Bergen is the gateway to the fjords of Western Norway, named by The National Geographic Magazine as the world’s best unspoilt tourist destination. The port of Bergen welcomes more than 150,000 cruise ship passengers every summer and has one of the highest cruise passenger rates in northern Europe.
