Show闲队长:“The Tromsø Cable Car is a must-take! It takes only 5 minutes to reach the top of the mountain. The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows are simply amazing for viewing the fjord and the northern lights! The mountaintop viewing platform has a 360-degree view of the city lights, snow-capped mountains, and starry sky. It is recommended to go up the mountain after 3 pm to enjoy the sunset blues and night view at the same time. The first choice for chasing the northern lights in winter and watching the midnight sun in summer, remember to wear a windbreaker!”

The small beaches invite you to eat something sitting on the sand while watching the Norwegian Sea.At the village you can find a small supermarket and an electric car charging station.”

M22***70:“I went there in autumn. There is no polar day or polar night. The mountains and rivers are beautiful and the air is fresh. It is a good place to relax and unwind. I stayed there for a week. I would recommend everyone who is tired from work to stay in Norway for a week. I didn't live in the city center, but Tromso is so small. The city center, suburbs and airport are all about 15 minutes away by bus. Live slowly and play slowly. In the past, you could see the northern lights as long as it was sunny. Don't get too tired. It is really a good place to absorb energy. If you live by the sea, you will be in a good mood as soon as you open the window every day. Anyway, it is worth a visit.”

Show闲队长:“Tromsø Arctic Church is amazing! The white triangular building looks cool like an iceberg, and the colored glass inside reveals the dreamy light and shadow like the aurora. Sitting on the steps, you can overlook the entire city and the fjord, and the night view is breathtaking. The midnight sun in summer and the aurora in winter are even more stunning, and the acoustics for concerts are first-class! The Nordic minimalist style is perfect for taking photos, and it is a must-visit landmark!”

Open 10:00-22:30
Sophia:“#Norway# I love taking the cable car up the snowy mountains in Europe. After visiting the observation deck, I eat at the observation restaurant next door. They are basically the best value for money. This time, the cable car observation restaurant Fjellstua in Tromso made me doubt the chef's skills. I arrived at 1pm, just in time for the sunset in Tromso. The restaurant was full. I finally got a table by the window. I went to the cashier to order and pay the bill. I ordered a dish that literally translates to tomato fish soup, which is Figure 8, beef potato soup Figure 7, and curry chicken rice and venison burgers. The total cost of 4 meals was nearly 1,000 Norwegian coins. I waited for a long time until the sunset was over and it was completely dark. The meal came up, and the key was that it was all dark cuisine. The soup was basically without water, all meat and potatoes. I can understand that it needs more calories in the cold weather here. The curry chicken rice has a mysterious strange taste, the curry has a strong medicinal taste, and the venison in the venison burger is super smelly. I can't accept it at all. However, the price is here, and everyone can only try to finish their lunch painfully. But thinking of the photographers outside taking photos in the north wind at -10 degrees, the beautiful city view inside the window is still fascinating. Special reminder: if you come here in winter, have a full breakfast before going up the mountain. You can buy a cup of coffee or dessert in the viewing restaurant. It is no problem to sit from 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock. My European aunt next door also brought books to read.”

SEAHELLO:“✈️After flying for more than 15 hours, we landed in Tromsø, Troms County, Norway. ❄️In a -1℃ weather, I couldn't wait to go out to find food and stroll on the street! 👉🏻I found a treasure street—— Storgata 👉🏻This small street is not only the CBD of Tromsø 🤩There are also 3 very interesting food and drink shops! 👉🏻They are all very cool in some way! 👌I personally tried it and it’s not a bad deal. If I did, it’s okay because it’s not expensive at all😆 - 1️⃣. Raketten BAR & Pølse 👉🏻The smallest bar in the universe The name is not important, it’s just used for positioning haha It’s called the tiniest bar, so small that it looks like a newsstand But it’s very beautiful, the elements in the store are very rich and warm The hot dogs are very very very delicious! The mulled wine is also great! It is very comfortable to warm up the body in the ice and snow Storgata 94B, 9008 Tromso . 2️⃣. Ølhallen Pub 👉🏻The oldest local bar A very old beer bar in Tromso It has been nearly a hundred years old There are nearly 70 kinds of malt liquor to try in the store Come here to have a drink on a snowy night The atmosphere of the European pub is full When our glasses clink together, there is a sound of tipsiness Storgata 4, 9008 Tromso . 3️⃣. The world's northernmost McDonald's Previously, the "northern McDonald's" was in Finland Now it belongs to this McDonald's in Tromso! There are also aurora postcards in the store that you can take home! But except for a little bit of gimmicks There is no difference from other McDonald's... But the McDonald's people don't care about these! Just assemble the whole army! Charge!

吴青芸:“The shop along the street is not difficult to find. The shop is not big and the decoration is warm and simple. The clerk is very nice. We asked about various snacks one by one before placing the order. I like their chocolate croissants, cinnamon buns and lemon tarts. The shop is very creative. 7 people and 7 drinks are customized. Each drink has a different latte art. The restaurant specially drew a 7-person pattern. We are a big group guest.”

SEAHELLO:“☕Kaffe means "coffee" in Norwegian In Norway🇳🇴, 90% of adults drink coffee Two-thirds of Norwegians drink coffee every day☕️ The coffee shops here are also quite exciting! To be honest, all 5 shops this time are in Tromso, Troms County (Tromso) This big city in Norway🇳🇴 is located in the Arctic Circle It is not as prosperous as Oslo and Bergen But in terms of the winter atmosphere, it is simply amazing! The mountains and rivers are quiet, the sky is about to get dark, and the lights are on. Holding a cup of coffee by the window, the snow I miss❄️, is falling all over the world! - 1️⃣.Kaffebonna A relaxing and warm coffee shop, founded in 1998 Hidden may be the best coffee in Norway! There are branches in the city and the airport. The store in the city has a view of the snow-capped mountains. Many people recommend the hot latte, and ISKAFFEE (ice coffee) is also very good. The waiter is also very handsome, a hidden benefit of Northern Europe! Stortorget 3 | Postboks 582, Tromso 9256 . 2️⃣.Bryggejentene A coffee shop opened by the fjord in the suburbs The template of "isolated from the world" atmosphere. Be sure to choose a seat with a window! The view outside the window is so good! Come here to drink a hot latte on a snowy polar night It seems that the world has quieted down in the silver white Ersfiordveien 55,Tromse, 9107 . 3️⃣.Riso mat & kaffebar Maybe it is a very popular coffee shop in the town The whole shop is a mixture of refreshing Nordic style and capable industrial texture The beans are good, and even many milk foams have a light feeling The blond barista brother will take time to chat with customers Where is the average person? Strandgata 32, 9008 Tromso . 4️⃣.Tollefsenhjornet A small avocado-colored building on the corner Locals also like to check in at the coffee shop Opening the door is a unique sense of relaxation in Norway The shop has 2 floors in total, and the seats with windows on the first floor are recommended You can completely integrate into the streetscape of the town This shop is said to be open until very late Late night coffee parties are blessed! Storgata 49, 9008 Tromso . 5️⃣.Vervet Bakeri Located in the center of Tromso, the bread and coffee are great! A great place for breakfast or brunch Cinnamon rolls, sun bread, and pudding bread are all great When it’s cold, you need a carbon bombardment Latte and Americano are both amazing, and there are new Halloween products recently~ Gjøastredet 1, 9008 Tromso - Life begins after coffee. I hope you can start a beautiful day with coffee in the snowy land of the Arctic Circle~ - 😘We will take you to Tromso 🇳🇴Norway Winter 10-day semi-self-guided tour small group 🇳🇴Norway + Finland Winter 10-day semi-self-guided tour small group 🇳🇴Norway + Iceland Winter 13-day semi-self-guided tour small group 🇳🇴Norway + Iceland Winter 11-day exquisite tour small group ❤If you are interested, you can PM me! #Norway Trip #Nordic Trip #Coffee Trip #citywalk #Seahello Trendy Vacation”
