You would expect Norway 3rd and Norway's Last Europen City (Stavanger, this Year) of Culture to be over run with cars and people but I have never seen such an understated city - It really is fantastic and also part of the city form (above) form part of a world hertiage area.
It has everthing going for it, a port, an airport, a rail way station and fantastic landscape
and as such it really is a green city, buildings of sustainable materials, no cars road pricing, Electric Buses ,A Train statition in the city centre - I now i really want to live there!
There must be a down side?, and yes there is the cost of living !
It also must be the most expensive place in the world , except of course to Olso.
