Day 3 - Flight Oslo-Alesund

Alesund is beautifully located on the western coast of Fjord Norway, surrounded by a spectacular archipelago of islands, Fjords & mountain peaks. The town is young at heart, but with an unusually dramatic story to tell. One stormy night a hundred years ago, the whole town centre burned to the ground. Only a few houses survived the devastation in 1904, and ten thousand people were made homeless. A new town rose phoenix-like from the ashes – in the distinctive Art Nouveau style.
