🏘️ Gamle Stavanger: A Walk Through Norway’s Past 🏘️

Gamle Stavanger, or Old Stavanger, is one of the most charming places I explored in Norway. This historic district is famous for its cluster of over 170 wooden houses, mostly built in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Strolling through the narrow cobblestone lanes felt like stepping back in time—whitewashed houses with colorful flowers in the windows created a picture-perfect scene at every corner.

What makes this area truly special is that it’s still a living neighborhood. Locals continue to reside in these heritage homes, giving the streets a warm and authentic atmosphere. Along the way, I also discovered small art galleries, local craft shops, and cozy cafés tucked between the houses.

Practical tips: entry to the area is free, and it’s easy to reach on foot from Stavanger’s harbor. Early mornings or late afternoons are the best times to visit if you want to avoid crowds and capture beautiful photos in soft light. Combine your visit with the Norwegian Canning Museum, located right nearby, for a deeper insight into Stavanger’s history.

For anyone who loves culture, history, and photography, Gamle Stavanger is an absolute must-see. 🌸
