In this first photo you can see Levanger Strait, going from Trondheimsfjorden to Eidsbotn. Eidsbotn is a fjord basin, and the tide runs back and forth through this strait.
The tallest building behind the bridge is a hospital.
Here you see more of the centre of the city. The ferry crosses the fjord out to an island called Ytterøy ( 'øy' is the norwegian word for island).
This beautiful building is the railway station in Levanger. 83.90 km north of Trondheim, 3.3 meters above sea level. Opened back in 1902.
This last photo I borrowed from Fotonor AS.
Please visit My World Tuesday for more pictures around the exciting world.

Amazing views. I love that old railstation. Is it still used as such? Love that you sometimes include an aerial view as well. Gives an interesting perspective.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, Ivar. I'd heard of slow food but not slow cities. I'll have to read more about that.
ReplyDeleteI like the Cittaslow idea. I think living at a fast pace is not living well at all. One thing I like about photography is it's slowing me down to appreciates our beautiful world.

ReplyDeleteVi kjørte igjennom Levanger sentrum i sommer. Det er en koselig plass med mange flotte gamle hus og bygninger.
Du kunne jo sagt at det siste er tatt fra en GSM mast. hehe.
Bilde fra Verdens Ende er ikke fra en borg men fra et gammelt fyr.
Har bilde av den hvis du ser under etiketter og Verdens Ende.
Nice photo's. They make this area look bigger than the 18500 people that live here.

ReplyDeleteMost excellent! the landscape in the background reminds me of the area in Germany, where I grew up.
ReplyDeleteWonderful images, Ivar!
Cheers, Klaus
Wow very beautiful scenery and the city looked so lovely with all those unique designed buildings.
ReplyDeletehar muligens vært i Levanger dersom det er den veien (E6) vi benyttet da jeg i 1970 haiket fra Oslo til Bodø.
ReplyDeleteHusker imidlertid ikke noe fra stedet, så dersom E6 er yngre enn <40 år er dette mine første opplevelser av et vakkert sted
your world is so beautiful

I've been reading about individuals leading "slow" lives but haven't heard of a city doing it. It sounds fascinating.
