Top Things to Do in Oslo

About the City

Oslo, Norway: A Scandinavian Charm with a Sprinkle of Quirks Picture a city where modern art nestles beside timeless fjord landscapes, creating a tapestry of cultural delight—that's Oslo! This northern gem invites visitors with open arms, offering a buffet of museums like the futuristic Oslo Opera House that seems to float on water, and the Vigeland Sculpture Park with its intriguing statues. It's a place where you can hike in the pristine forests by day and savor Nordic cuisine in Michelin-starred restaurants by night. Yet, beware the Viking spirit isn't all that's chilling—the Nordic wind can be brisk, so pack your woolens. And while your wallet might feel lighter here, with the city's reputation for high living costs, the richness of experiences like sipping on world-class coffee makes it worth the splurge. Public transport is a smooth sail, but if you rent a car, brace for a quest for parking worthy of Norse saga. Summer days stretch long with midnight sun, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, while winter nights may steal the sun but replace it with a dazzling dance of aurora borealis. So whether you find yourself giggling at a 'museum' that's just a tiny room or gasping at breathtaking views, Oslo oscillates charmingly between grandeur and quirkiness, making it an unforgettable Nordic adventure.
