We started the day in Vigeland Park, the world’s largest sculpture park made by just one artist! It contains 200+ sculptures and is just incredible. Gustav Vigeland is Norway’s most famous sculptor and you might already be familiar with his work… he designed the Nobel Peace Prize medal!
From Vigeland Park, we walked along Bogstadveien which is a great shopping road. My friends recommended Bik Bok and Monki as the best Nordic brand stores to buy clothes. I got a really cute pair of sunglasses at Monki for only 100NOK, definitely needed as it was blazing sun in Oslo!
Next stop…city hall! Not to get married (although this is where Kristina’s parents were married!), but to admire the colorful and meaning-filled murals. Basically a free museum! It’s not much to look at on the outside, but once you enter the large brick building you find yourself in a vast hall with three-story tall murals on each side. You can exp...
This quite posh area is home to great restaurants, some modern art museums, lots of docked yachts in the harbor, and a beautiful path alongside the sea. We walked around, and then settled in a sunny spot overlooking the harbor for lunch that we picked up from the nearby grocery store.
The Opera house is a gorgeous modern building on the harbor of the west side of Oslo…but when it was built, the architects miscalculated a few things. First, every year it is sinking! Second, they didn’t mean for people to walk on the roof, but it’s so perfectly slanted that every day dozens of people traipse up the roof for views of the Oslo Fjord...
A summertime classic in Oslo is grilling! This was so much fun. So many people were lying out in the grass eating freshly cooked burgers and smoky corn. It was wonderful.
Akerselva is the main river that runs north-south through a section of Oslo. Once you get to Kuba park, a long narrow park along the water’s edge, you can walk along the river (it’s difficult to elsewhere in the city). It’s peaceful and wild and there are lots of nice bars and books tucked in along the river edge.
For us, this was the perfect place to end our day of walking Oslo, as our Airbnb was in St Hanshaugen neighborhood (highly recommend staying in that area!). The park itself is gorgeous, especially around sunset. Haugen roughly translates to hill… Meaning the park is just one big green hill with great views of the city at the top! ^ views from our S...
