It is one of two towns in Norway that were historically designated mining towns , along with the silver-town of Kongsberg. The modern-day inhabitants of Røros still work and live in the characteristic 17th and 18th century buildings which have led to its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980. Røros has about 80 wooden houses, most of them standing around courtyards. Many retain their dark pitch-log facades, giving the town a medieval appearance • Source: Wikipedia • Gear used: • Canon 5D MkIII + 24-70mm f2.8 L II usm lens • Dynamic Perception Stage Zero time lapse rail • Music: • Left On My Own, from the album Day Dreams - Smartsound.com
