City in Norway
Trondheim
3 things to see
Trondheim is a colorful university city with Scandinavia’s most impressive medieval cathedral, free-to-walk waterfront warehouses, and a more affordable pace than Oslo or Bergen. The Bakklandet district and the old town bridge cost nothing to wander, and the riverside warehouses make for a free photo walk. The student population keeps casual eating and drinking cheaper than in Norway’s bigger cities, which is a real win in an expensive country. Summer brings long daylight hours, while the shoulder months are quieter and easier on the budget.
