Bakklandet is Trondheim's historic district on the east bank of the Nidelva River, known for its well-preserved 18th- and 19th-century wooden buildings painted in vibrant hues. Visitors can wander along narrow cobblestone lanes, browse boutique shops, and relax at waterside cafes. The area's lively atmosphere and photogenic scenery make it a favorite for both locals and tourists. Key sights include the old wharves and the iconic wooden houses that line the riverbank.
