Oslo is beautifully situated at the very head of the spectacular Oslo Fjord. The proximity of the great and vastly unspoiled nature lends a special atmosphere to the city. The city centre of Oslo is relatively small and compact, with most attractions within walking distance. Karl Johan is Oslo’s main street. A walk from one end to the other will take you past Oslo’s cathedral, Norway’s parliament, the Grand Hotel where Nobel Laureates sleep and finally up to the Royal Palace at the top of the hill.
The city centre offers a wide selection of museums and galleries and an unusual variety of affordable bars, cafés and restaurants – six of them with Michelin stars. In summertime, the harbour-side Aker Brygge complex is a very charming and lively area. It was originally an old dockyard that has now been converted to outdoor pubs, restaurants, shops and upscale apartments. Enjoy a walk along the waterside where locals and visitors mingle.
