The Norwegian town of Stavanger is located on the Stavanger Peninsular, in the south west of the country. Dating back to the 12th century the city's centre is largely of 18th and 19th century construction with timber houses, which are protected as a result of their historical significance. The city's cathedral also dates back to the 12th century and is a popular tourist attraction. The city, which has managed quite well to retain its small town atmosphere has a number of museums that contain items that are of both local and national importance. The Norwegian Petroleum Museum in the city was opened in 1998 and is the city's most visited museum and the only petroleum museum in Europe. Established in 1864 is the Missjonmuseet which is the city's oldest museum and is located on the ground floor of the faculty building at MHS and contains around 5,000 exhibits. The city is also popular with visitors who use it as a base to visit the Norwegian fjords. As the gateway to the fjords the most popular attraction is Pulpit Rock which attracts around 200,000 each year.
Located outside Stavanger, the town's port services ferries to Hirtshals in Denmark. Local ferries go to Tau and Kvitsøy, while fast passenger boats go to many villages and islands between the main routes from Stavanger to Haugesund and Sauda.
The English city of Newcastle is located in the north east of England, with one of the largest seaports in the country. DFDS Seaways operates daily ferry routes between the Port of Newcastle and Amsterdam, usually lasting around 15 hours which varies from season to season.
This vibrant city is full of history, with its centre containing more listed classical buildings than any other city in the UK, and has many interesting things to see and do including the elegant streets of Grainger Town, through to the modern Gateshead Millennium Bridge. The iconic bridge is a popular attraction owing to its unique architecture and tilting mechanism, while in contrast there is Whitley Bay: a popular seaside resort with a golden sandy beach and seafront promenade.
For lovers of history, Hadrian's Wall was built by the Romans in 110 AD which lies not too far away, but heading back to the city, there is the Gateshead Music Centre, which was recently redeveloped at a cost of more than £50 million.
