Fog lifts off the Nidelva as the guide leads the group across the Old Town Bridge — colorful wooden warehouses lean over the river, and gulls wheel like small punctuation marks above the quay. The city breathes history at street level: cobbled alleys open onto Torvet’s market noise, while the silhouette of Nidaros Cathedral pins the skyline with carved stone and stained glass.
