N/A

A street with a lot of history. This street right behind Bryggen has many interesting stories, apart from a great view of the many times ignored back part of Bryggen, which shows another perspective of how the tenements were built in the 12th century. From here we will also go through a residential area with many narrow streets. Photogenic spot, with cobble stones and wooden houses, so typical of Bergen.
