Byparken, Public park in central Bergen, Norway

Byparken extends around two connected ponds, Lungegardsvannet and Smalungeren, with tree-lined pathways and seasonal flower displays throughout the grounds.

The establishment of Byparken in 1865 followed Bergen's devastating fire of 1855, serving as a protective fire break within the municipal anti-fire regulations.

The Music Pavilion stands as a central feature of the park, hosting performances while Festplassen provides space for Norwegian Constitution Day celebrations.

Light rail stops connect visitors directly to the park, with multiple benches and walking paths offering easy navigation through both sections.

The park's two ponds, known as Large Lung and Small Lung, maintained their connection despite the central area being filled between them.
