Oslo is the lively and welcoming capital of Norway, where history is intertwined with modern design, and urban life coexists with spacious forests and bays.

The man-made sights of Oslo are impressive with their diversity: the Vigeland Sculpture Park with its famous Monolith and many expressive statues, the fountain and works of the master in the Frognerpark area. On the streets of the city you can find a bronze statue of Churchill, monuments to Roosevelt and other famous personalities, the famous Tiger near the central station, as well as unusual sculptures “Rose”, “Capricious Boy” and a monument to the Glove. Be sure to walk along Karl Johan Street, visit the Royal Palace, the fortress and castle of Akershus, the town hall, historical squares and lively markets like Basarhallene. Tusenfryd Park and sports arenas are available for entertainment, while the University of Oslo and the old buildings add cultural weight to the city.
The natural corners around Oslo are no less attractive: the Botanical Garden of the University offers calm alleys and collections of rare plants, the wide park-forest zone of Oslomark invites for hiking and cycling, and the Eiker Brigg promenade and inland bays give sea views and walks by the water. In the vicinity there are picturesque waterfalls, including the Mall, the medieval park Middelalderparken gives a green frame of history, and the islands at the entrance to the fjord, including the fortress of Oskarsborg, add to the sea experience.
