This is an AMAZING Christmas shop!…read more This Christmas shop is 3 levels! There are all kinds of ornaments and decorations. The prices are reasonable. I really liked the different ornament styles. They were very Scandinavian. There's Christmas cards, Christmas napkins, table decor, and other small Knick knacks. They also have a sale section. The building itself is very interesting to look at. The stairways are not straight.

Mainly Scandinavian design, and definitely put together for the Scandinavian taste. The location is just across the road for one of the entrances to the big, underground parking house "Klostergarasjen", so you don't have to carry your new crushes long to get them home with you. Illums is the place to go for gift shopping, for inspiration, for setting up your wedding present list or for finding everything you need to decorate your home. The centre is popular, but not crowded, and pricey without ruin you. A treat for a rainy day.

I stopped by the Bergen location a…read moreweek ago and found a mountain of beautifully designed items from salad servers, candle holders, lamp shades to calculators. The store is conveniently located downtown and the perfect stop for anyone with discerning tastes or anyone shopping for those with discerning tastes. If you're not stopping, I still recommend stopping by for a look to experience great design. During the holidays, they have specials on unique items everyday. They have the day and the highlighted item posted on the window and wall right when you enter.

Great service and the best selection in the city. Plus my girlfriend works there, and she's awesome.read more

Passing by twice every day, on my way to and home from work, I should drop by more often. However;…read moreafter my "shop stop" year in 2011-2012, I have spent less time popping in to temptation, and hence I am avoiding Vrimmel most of the time. This is a shop where I like more or less everything that I see, and my yesterday find was a light blue Michael Kors bag. Depending on the number of days I keep on thinking about it, I might have to go back someday in the close future. In addition to designer bags from i.e. Michael Kors and Marc Jacobs, Vrimmel carries designer clothing and accessories and is one of the shops in Bergen where you can find clothes that don't hang on every other person in the city.

For 130 NOK or about $13 US Dollars I bought a soda can, loaf of bread, and 2 sandwiches. If I bought this at the fish market it would have cost $50 at least. The grocery store is across the street from the fish market and visitor center on the hotel side. Not the shipping side. See photos. A hidden gem to save money is here!!

That was done quickly!…read more I think I've only been visiting Kløverhuset for specific shops the latter years, cause when I revisited on Saturday for "shopping" with friends, I was disappointed and surprised to experience how boring it us. I think the highlights are the dress shop Coast, the Day Birger et Mikkelsen on the first floor and the Netty lingerie in the basement. You will also find nice, expensive designer's wear at Scabal, but there's a high risk that you will find the same clothes on every second 14-year-old in the city, who's parents have either too much money or bad conscience, or a combination of the two. The centre is the oldest in the city, dating back to 1852, so I'm cheering on Kløverhuset and hope they find a better mix of shops and services to put themselves back into the game.

I tried on a few with more subtle and modern patterns which looks pretty good as I love blue... Price wise... yes do that conversion in your head and stay calm... as most of the sweaters are priced at 1500 Nok ($250) and up.... But they are a nice souvenir, as least I can wear them!

The establishment opened January 2013 and is the "home" for writers in Bergen, as well as a stage for debates, readings, launches, kids' events etc. In addition it has a brasserie and a café on the first level. One Tuesday every month they are hosting the event "Ut med språket", focusing on linguistics and the history and meaning behind common and less common words in the Norwegian language. The show is lead by the TV personality Linda Eide, together with professor in Nordic languages, Gunnstein Akselberg. They also have various guests attending, in addition to an engaged audience. Last Tuesday that guest happened to be my sister, invited to present dialect words from our home town, in addition to discuss her work on her master thesis; looking into the use of "-ish" in the Norwegian language. The show is entertaining (in Norwegian) and is representing just one of the experiences you can get from visiting Litteraturhuset in Bergen.
