Oslo, the capital of Norway, is undoubtedly one of the world’s most beautiful cities, both inside and out. Framed by Mother Nature’s finest works of art from imposing fjords and snowy mountains to pine-covered forests and glittering lakes, combined with mankind’s brilliant contributions of innovative architecture and a burgeoning cultural scene, Oslo is truly a bombshell in every sense of the word. Whether it’s the brief but sparkling summer or her magical white winter, Oslo never blows hot and cold in her charms. Meet this Nordic stunner with both look and personality to boot with a customised Oslo and Norwegian tour package from Chan Brothers Travel Private Tours today.
Viking legends
So much of Norway’s medieval history was tied to the Vikings, rampaging seafarers who sailed, raided and traded across northern and central Europe from their Scandinavian homelands, that we inadvertently link the Norwegians as people that are equally at home out in the sea as on land. The Viking Ship Museum now tells of this tale and their legendary exploits. See three of the world’s best-preserved Viking ships dating all the way back to the 9th century, marvel at the rich and intricate artefacts discovered together with the finding of the ships, and imagine yourself back in those storied times when these fearless Scandinavian warriors ruled the sea.
Solo vision
Vigeland Park, located right in the middle of Oslo’s 80-acre Frogner Park, is the world’s largest sculpture park made by a single artist. Set in a massive ground with palatial lawns, brimming gardens, ornate gates and splendid fountains, visitors can marvel at a collection of more than 200 naked human figures carved by Gustav Vigeland, one of Norway’s most celebrated sculptors who also designed the Nobel Peace Prize medal. Holding hands, running together ahead, groups of friends contemplating, lovers knitting in embraces, older men hunching in resting positions – this famous artist’s sculptures tenderly depict an expansive wealth and breadth of human emotions.
Jump in
Everyone knows Norwegians love to ski and Holmenkollen is one of the iconic ski-associated landmarks deeply seated in the Norwegian consciousness. Hosting skiing competitions that have thrilled the nation and its residents for more than a century, the area houses one of the world’s oldest ski museums and a futuristic ski jump tower with an observatory that offers an incredible view of Oslo and the fjord below. Its star attraction, for the adventurous, is probably the extremely exciting Ski Simulator where you can jump straight in and experience how it is like to fly off one of the world’s toughest and steepest downhill ski slopes.
