Gamle Stavanger

avatar
微凉的夏日沅湘
The old city of Stavanger, this European city full of style, is undoubtedly a shining pearl of Norway. As the historical heart of Stavanger, the fourth largest city in Norway, the old city presents a quiet and quaint picture to tourists with its well-preserved wooden houses and stone-paved alleys. Walking in the alleys of the old city, the white-walled and red-roofed wooden houses on both sides seem to tell a thousand-year story. The stone road is extremely comfortable to walk on, and every step seems to be talking to history. In the old city, the famous canning museum is not to be missed. It witnesses the glorious journey of Stavanger from a sardine canning processing base to an oil and gas field maintenance base. In addition, the life atmosphere of the old city is also intoxicating. Lazy cats nap in the sun, smiling old ladies embroider in front of the window, everything seems so peaceful and leisurely. If you are tired of walking, you might as well find a cafe, taste a cup of fragrant coffee, and enjoy this rare quiet time. The old city of Stavanger is not only a historical site, but also a tourist destination full of life and cultural heritage. Whether for tourists who like history and culture or for travelers who pursue a quiet life, this is a rare place to go.

Norwegian Petroleum Museum

微凉的夏日沅湘
The Norwegian Petroleum Museum, located in the picturesque town of Stavanger, is an excellent place to learn about the glorious history and current situation of the Norwegian oil industry. With its unique architectural design, the museum seems to have moved the real offshore platform to the land, allowing people to feel the strong atmosphere of the oil industry the moment they step into the museum. The exhibition in the museum shows in detail the entire process of oil from geological origin, exploration and discovery to mining and transportation, and combines modern display methods to make popular science vivid and interesting. Here, you can gain an in-depth understanding of the significant impact of oil on the Norwegian economy and the global energy landscape, experience simulated drilling operations in person, and watch precious historical video materials and physical exhibits. It is particularly worth mentioning that the interactive exhibition area in the museum is suitable for the whole family to participate. Children can learn scientific knowledge in games, while adults can deeply understand the balance between scientific and technological progress and environmental protection. In general, the Norwegian Petroleum Museum is not only a journey of scientific and technological exploration, but also a wise dialogue connecting the past and the future. With its rich exhibition content, unique architectural design and entertaining interactive experience, it has become a shining pearl in Stavanger and even Norway. For tourists who love science and exploration, this is definitely a tourist destination not to be missed.

Stavanger Cathedral

微凉的夏日沅湘
Stavanger Cathedral, an ancient building with a history of more than 800 years, is undoubtedly a treasure in the history of Norwegian architecture. As the only medieval cathedral in Norway that still retains its original appearance, it combines the Roman and Gothic architectural styles, showing a unique artistic charm. The stone exterior walls of the cathedral are solid and solemn, and the interior decoration is sacred and luxurious. The bishop's chair in the choir, the gorgeous crystal lamps, and the carvings of Jesus and the Virgin Mary are all exquisite religious works of art, which are breathtaking. The benches and some decorations in the church belong to the era of the Christian Reformation in the 16th century, while the altar and the podium are also products of the late 17th century. These historical relics make people feel the precipitation of time and the inheritance of culture. In addition to the building itself, Stavanger Cathedral also carries important historical significance. It witnessed the moment of change of dynasties in Norwegian history, and also symbolized the germination of Christianity in Norway and the end of polytheism. Standing in front of the cathedral, it seems that you can hear the echo of history and feel the solemnity and sacredness. In short, Stavanger Cathedral is a tourist destination that cannot be missed. It is a place worth pilgrimage for both tourists who like history and culture and travelers who seek spiritual sustenance.

A very leisurely bay and a very quiet seaside. You can see the three stone swords standing on the seaside from a distance, which is super spectacular. Bustling tourists come to take photos, but I still feel that the whole environment is very comfortable and not crowded and noisy.

Norwegian Canning Museum

微凉的夏日沅湘
The Norwegian Canned Museum, a unique museum in the heart of Stavanger, is undoubtedly the best place to learn about the culture and history of canned Norwegian. The museum, which was formerly a sardine cannery, has now transformed itself into a cultural treasure trove of fun and knowledge. The museum’s interior shows the development process from the 1879 canned sardines to the mid-1950s, and visitors can see for themselves the whole process from fishing sardines to exporting, including the development and evolution of production tools. In addition, the museum also has a large collection of old-fashioned sardine canned packaging and production line equipment, which makes it feel like returning to the industrial era. In addition to the rich exhibits, the museum's architectural design is also quite distinctive. The old factory charm is preserved and modern elements are integrated, making the whole museum both historical and fashionable. In short, the Norwegian Canned Museum is a museum worth visiting. It not only gives an insight into the canned culture and history of Norway, but also brings a unique experience. It is definitely a great place to visit for visitors who love history and culture and explore industrial heritage.

Preikestolen

The Pulpit Rock is indeed a scenic spot worth visiting. There is no built road on the way to the Pulpit Rock, but a primitive mountain road with ups and downs and uneven terrain. You have to be very careful when walking on it. People often fall accidentally. In addition to the stone road, there are also flowing grass along the way, which is full of primitive flavor. Walking along this road will make you feel awe for nature.

Stavanger Maritime Museum

微凉的夏日沅湘
Stavanger Maritime Museum, located in the city of Stavanger on the west coast of Norway, is a marine theme museum integrating history, culture and technology. Its unique "Z" type bridge design not only constitutes an important visual feature outside the museum, but also cleverly connects the promenade to the Kalongburg Palace, providing visitors with a shortcut to the world heritage. The museum’s interior is rich and varied, with the exhibition area connected by a slow slope of 2%, making it seem like you are in a huge sea boat, exploring the mysteries of the ocean from the top to the bottom of the dock. There are not only a variety of ship models and marine life displays, but also a historical story about Stavanger's marine career, allowing people to enjoy the exhibits while also feeling the city and the deep origin of the ocean. It is especially worth mentioning that the bridge space in the museum is not only a transparent public space, but also a multi-functional area integrating research libraries, exhibition halls, auditoriums and cafes, providing visitors with a rich leisure and learning experience. Overall, the Stavanger Maritime Museum, with its unique architectural design and rich exhibition content, has become a great place to explore the mysteries of the sea and learn about Stavanger's history and culture. For marine lovers and regular visitors, this is an unforgettable experience.
