Stavanger is the fourth largest city in Norway and has recently emerged as the country's oil capital. Despite the rapid expansion due to North Sea exploration, Stavanger has successfully preserved its old-world charm while providing all the amenities of a modern city. The central area around Vågen harbor is typically bustling with activity, especially during the summer. There are numerous bars, cafes, and dining spots. The old town, Gamle Stavanger, is a beautiful collection of traditional Norse-style houses. The historic center of Stavanger houses several artisan workshops and the Norwegian Canning Museum. It is said that there are 173 white cottages from the 1800s in this area, making it the largest surviving wooden house settlement in northern Europe. The magnificent Stavanger Cathedral is located right in the center of the city, between the main harbor and Breiavatnet Lake. The overall style is Romanesque, but the eastern side is distinctly Gothic, complete with all the specific elements. The Norsk Oljemuseum, with its intriguing architecture, is located in an impressive building by the harbor and provides a history of oil in the North Sea and an insight into the industry. Beyond the central area, there are numerous parks, open spaces, and bike paths to explore the stunning local scenery. Stavanger itself offers plenty to do, with its own theater, museums, and concert hall. During the summer, various festivals are held and the city center is abuzz with activity.
