Aske-fjeldet paa Askøen. Alle Fjeldene lade sig med
Lethed bestige; hvert af dem giver sin eiendommelige
Udsigt. Den smukkeste og videste Udsigt har man
fra Løvstakken; den lange skinnende Bræ af
Folge-†onnen i Sydost er af stor Virkning, det vakre
Nord-aasvand med sine skovklædte Øer i Syd, Skjærgaarden
i Fugleperspektiv i Vest; mod Nord ser man lige til
Sulenøerne i Sogn (8 Mil), ja i klart Veir endog helt
til Alden i Søndtjord (10 Mils Afstand).
Hardanger.
Indenfor Søndhordland ligger det for sine vexlende
Naturskjønbeder berømte Hardanger, paa begge Sider
af Hardangerfjorden., der som Bømmelfjordens
Fortsættelse under forskjellige Navne og med mange
Forgreninger stikker sig dybt ind i Fjeldmassen. Egnene
ved Hardangerfjorden høre til de skjønneste og
interessanteste i hele det vestenfjeldske Norge. Den
nøgne Vildhed optræder kun i de østligste Fjordarme,
oftest er det Storartede parret med det Yndige og
Milde; Jøkler fra Folgefonnen og vakkre Fossefald,
af hvilke flere høre til Norges høieste, giver
Landskabet Afvexling og Liv, Løvtræorne voxe yppigt og rigt
i Dalene, og over det Hele staar Folgefonnens
blin-kende Snemasser, synlige fra mange Steder. — Fra

1850, in the Theatre in Engen, and continued till 1868.
Since then the theatre, which is the property of the
Dramatic Society, has been let out from time to time
to Danish companies of players. The Fine Arts Union
(Kunstforeningen) — established 1838 — is in the
uppermost story of Losting’s Gaard, at the top of
Torvalmendingen; it is open every Sunday and
Wednesday’ from 11 to 1 a. m. The Union has also a
permanent collection of paintings. Opposite the
"Kunstforeningen" is the Public Library of the Town-, it
consists of P. Botten-Hansen’s extensive collection of
books, which were purchased in 1870 by private
subscription, and afterwards made over to the town. —
Travellers can also obtain admission to the various
Reading Clubs: — Den gode Hensigt, generally called
Logen (Engen), Athenæum (Torvalmendingen), and
Benemanns Beading Club (Domkirkegaden), which arc
open all day long. Arbeiderforeningenes magnificent
structure, close to the Nygaardsvei, built in 1860, as
a meeting-hall for the Bergen artizans, is also
employed as a lecture and concert room. — At
Lunge-gaarden (so named after Vincent Lunge, to whom it
was made ove? in 1528), a few remains of the old
Nonnesæter Nunnery are still to be seen.

arms of the city, formerly as seven balls, now as real
mountains. Farthest to the north-east, the 1) Sand-
