My World Tuesday

These shots are from the city of Levanger, one hour driving north of Trondheim, captured earlier in november this year. 18500 people live in Levanger minicipal. Levanger is a Slow City or Cittaslow to be correct. Cittaslow is an Italian organization. The "slow" philosophy is the wish to live with slower rhytms, discovering and heading for the quality of life. Visit Cittaslow for more information.

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.
