Farmers' Market

The Farmers' Market in Bergen is held twice per month on Saturdays right at the harbour (check the website for specific dates). This is the place to try new foods and shop for local specialities. Producers and farmers come to the market to sell everything from meat and smoked salmon to cheese, bread and pastries.

Shopping

Bergen is a pleasant place to take a stroll, and has both small, picturesque shops and large department stores and shopping malls. The main shopping area is in the city centre, which is easily accessible on foot. A visit to the Kløverhuset for clothes and shoes and to the Bergen Storsenter, which is the main shopping precinct with over seventy shops, is always worthwhile. Go to the Kjøttbasaren food hall when your tummy starts to rumble, and you can buy some delicious treats to take home or enjoy a pleasant meal.
