Tromsø Things to Do: 107 reviews and 217 photos

Tromsoy, which is the site of the first settlement of Tromso, is an island between the large island of Kvaloy and the mainland which is linked by the 1 km bridge over and tunnel under the strait to the mainland.

Unlike many towns north of here from Lyngen up to the east of Kirkenes, which were torched by the retreating German Army, the old town centre is still fairly intact with numerous old buildings giving character and quaintness.

And as already shown buildings that have been replaced have been replaced with very dynamic architectural designs which i think show just how lively and dynamic this municipality is!

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
