The Aquarium is not only one of Bergen’s most popular tourist attractions,
it also has a significant scientific status and is widely used for reach
and education purposes. Over the years it has become on of the most visited
attractions in Bergen, not just by tourist but by the people of Bergen.
The Aquarium has around 250000 visitors every year.

One of the best crowd pullers are the seals as they splash around in
their pool and the penguins wadding about in the sunshine.
The arboretum at Milde is an area set aside for cultivation of shrubs
and trees, principally for research, education and testing of plants.

The Arboretum is not just about botany, but is a wonderful area
for walks, with plenty of paths lakes and beaches. Many Europeans
believe that it is winter all year round in
Norway, and that only the insane would go swimming in the sea.
