The famous fish market in Bergen.
This place is an important part of Bergen's history, but has in the last decades turned into a tourist trap with overpriced products and souvenirs. But you should at least go there to enjoy the atmosphere, even though it's not what it used to be.

The Wharf in Bergen (called Bryggen by locals).
It's a series of Hanseatic commercial buildings lining the eastern side of the fjord coming into Bergen. Bryggen has since 1979 been on the UNESCO list for World Cultural Heritage sites. A must see in Bergen!

If you want to go outside Bergen to see the fjords, I highly recommend to pay Flåm a visit. You can get there by train or boat, just search for "Norway in a nutshell" online. I also recommend to take the Flåm Railway, and if you're up for it, rent a bike to get back down to Flåm.
