Bergen creates energy. The ones, who want to enjoy life, will automatically show up in Bergen. Experience the magic touch of this luxurious spot, the X-factor! For over a hundred years painters, composers, poets and writers did the very same. Keeping the image of the "village of artists" alive, letting themselves be inspired. Bergen, "Pearl of Noordholland", pleasureground with its unique combination of woods, sea, dunes and polder land. Animated village with a very specific culture. Plus a conspicuous historical, social character with an easy life-style. Its art-auction, the art-and book-markets, the many musical events. But also a village with a rich history and architectonic highlights, like the area of the "Amsterdamse School".
