Why you should visit Ålesund - Norway’s beautiful Art Nouveau Town

Ålesund is a stunning Norwegian town, lying at the mouth of the country's famous Geirangerfjord.

The place is especially known for its beautiful Art Nouveau architecture. The centre of Ålesund was destroyed by fire in 1904, and has been almost completely rebuilt in this style, making it look like somewhere out of a fairytale!
