Alesund, Norway

Ålesund is a fjord city. It was destroyed by fire in 1904, and the new buildings were rebuilt in concrete instead of wood, featuring a uniform architectural design throughout the city. This is why the buildings in photos have a similar appearance. While visiting, I took many street shots capturing the intricate details of the houses and buildings.

The ship docked in town, just a short walk from Mount Aksla. I went straight to the 418-step staircase leading to the top and enjoyed the stunning views along the way. At the summit, the trails offer a breathtaking 360-degree view of Ålesund, its many fjords, and surrounding mountains. Hiking Mount Aksla is a must-do when visiting Ålesund.
