3. Stavanger, Norway

This picturesque and history-rich Norwegian city is a fun and vibrant place to spend a few days taking in the best of the country’s culture.

A university town and one of the epicenters of Norway’s oil industry, in Stavanger, you will find a wealth of high-quality restaurants serving seafood delicacies as well as some fascinating history.

The Gamle Stavanger area of the city is one of its most photogenic with a crisscross of typical Norwegian wooden houses, while in the south you can relax on the secluded Sola Beach.

One of the real highlights of Stavanger is the nearby Preikestolen (pulpit rock), which is a huge, dramatic cliff face jutting out over the Lysefjord.

It offers incredible views and was even used as a filming location in the movie ‘Mission: Impossible – Fallout’.

While it looks and is stunning,it is expensive and gets very crowded too. Based on the travel videos I've seen on youtube. Mind you I suppose if you leave the central areas there are much less crowded areas on the outskirts and edges of the city?

Avg temp over the year is 45 f.

 

No.

[Pidge]

That's around 7 degrees in normal people temperatures, if anyone was wondering

Normal people don't live in 7 degree avg.

 

Bigger no when you put it that way.

Anything over 25 and I'm taking the day off.

You'd work about two months a year in Sevilla.

 

Which would be nice, I guess.

Some videos that show some of what Stavanger has to offer.

Pedersgata, the eastside and the Ledaal Park area are less busy than the city centre, and all are nice places to visit.

 

Not far away from the city centre as you can see here.

Norway is the Ronnie Corbett to Sweden's Ronnie Barker & Finland's John Cleese.

It’s not even the best country that starts with the letters Nor.

Haha those floating saunas are popping up everywhere, usually they are docked though.
