Spread over Kirkelandet, Innlandet, and Nordlandet Islands Norway’s Nordmøre region, Kristiansund is an enthralling city known for its spectacular scenery, exciting culinary scene, exceptional architecture, and wonderful opera house. Coastlines include rugged rocky shores, pretty coves, and mesmerising fjords passing fascinating historic sites. Many argue that this is one of the top locations for architecture in the country, with a unique aspect that most of what is seen today was built after significant destruction in the second world war.

Those interested in structures will also want to traverse the famous Atlantic Road, a magnificent feat of construction and the perfect platform for taking in the views, enjoying whale watching, or joining the locals in fishing. Make sure to try the local Clipfish and Bacalao, and visit the oldest opera house in the country.
