Add a review about the funicular Floibanen

The Bergen funicular FlÄblanen is famous almost all over the world, although it is unclear why. Although no, it is understandable: Bergen is located on the hills, and even a simple walk through the city gives the tourist a useful but not always pleasant aerobic load. And the funicular allows the guests of the city not only to relieve themselves of the inconvenience, but also to get magnificent photos of Bergen from the top of the Floyen hill, from a height of 320 meters.

The lower station is literally a couple of steps from the fish market. In ten minutes you will reach here from Bryggen
The webcam is installed at the top station, so you can estimate the weather conditions in the high altitude and decide how many umbrellas to take with you.

Floyen himself is mastered along and across, but very green and shady . At the foot of the park is broken, which as it rises up the hill . On the way the funicular makes several stops, and one can get off on any of them in order to walk a lot in green territory . At the very top there is a souvenir stand and a restaurant complex with a coffee shop and a terrace with excellent s view . There is also a playground for children and an open-air theater for dances and other entertainments . And in a couple of minutes you will reach a pretty little lake where it is allowed to have a full picnic with roasted meat at a barbecue-gazebo . In the summer season you can even ride a canoe on the lake .

The most persistent and courageous can reach all these delights on foot. On the one hand, it's long and cold. On the other - on the road you will come across very good miradors for taking pictures. The Norwegians themselves are practicing on the steep slopes of Floyen by morning jogging before work, without any apparent effort, so there is nothing impossible.
