Skansen brannstasjon
Excellent and easily available panorama point just above the funicular lowest station. Right in front of the old fire outlook, a small white wooden tower, now used by one of the city's buekorps.
Panorama point on the Tippetue footpath to Mt. Fløyen.
Lovely place on the highest point of Nordnes peninsula, towards the aquarium.
Pleasant park at the very tip of the peninsula, towards the sun set late summer evenings.
Johanneskirken
St. John's Church (Johanneskirken) dominates the top of Nygårdshøyden, the hill that hosts the University of Bergen. Nice view of the very centre.
