Oslo

Located at the head of the beautiful Oslofjord and surrounded by an idyllic landscape of forested hills, the Norwegian capital lies in the shadow of the imposing medieval walls of the Akershus Fortress.

Norways Lively Capital

One of Europe’s most expansive but least populated capitals, Oslo is an engaging and cosmopolitan city that is just perfect to explore on foot.

Founded around the year 1000 AD, Oslo was the site of Norway’s first university and today is the country’s commercial hub, offering a wealth of attractions for the visitor, including several excellent museums that boast amongst their number the impressive Viking Museum,
the original Fram Museum, the Kon Tiki Museum and the National Gallery. The world renowned Munch Museum contains a staggering collection of some of the most
famous works of Norway’s most revered artist, whilst the Vigeland Sculpture Park presents a unique way to spend some time wandering amongst the more than 200 bronze, granite and cast iron sculptures that make up a remarkable testament to the life’s work of Gustav Vigeland.

Aside from its numerous cultural highlights Oslo’s temperate climate and long summer days makes this vibrant city a delight for those looking for a European city with a difference. An expansive range of bars, restaurants and cafes, the abundant shopping choices along Karl Johans Gate and a bustling waterfront make this one of Northern Europe’s most attractive destination cities.
