The Oslo Maritime Museums
These three museums are definite "must sees" for those who love explorers and adventure.- Vigeland Sculpture Park
This unique sculpture garden is also known as Frogner Park, and has over 150 interesting stone and bronze sculptures. - The Oslo City Hall
You can't miss the dark brown twin towers of the Oslo City Hall. The inside atrium is decorated with some spectacular murals. The Nobel Peace prize is awarded each December 10, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death, at the Oslo City Hall. The Oslo Tourist Bureau is across the street from the City Hall. - Akershus Fortress
This ancient castle was built around 1300 and overlooks the cruise ship pier. Its thick earth and stone walls tell the tales of many Norwegian battles. - Royal Palace of Norway
The spacious Palace Park is always open and the Royal Palace has guided tours in English during the summer months. The changing of the guards ceremony at 1:30 each afternoon is quite impressive. - Holmenkollen Ski Jump and Ski Museum
The Holmenkollen ski jump can be seen high on a hill from all over the city. We rode an elevator and climbed over 100 stairs to get the ski jumper's perspective seen in the photo above. The views of Oslo and surrounding countryside are amazing.
