Did you know that you can sail to the Norwegian capital, Oslo, from
Denmark? It is a fantastic entry through the rocky Oslo fjord. I
remember the feeling of standing on deck in the early morning -
watching the stunning scenery of the Oslo fjord gliding by and
feeling blessed.
Besides from beauty Oslo has a lot to offer the visitor. Oslo is
known as an important maritime city in Europe and is headquarter
for a number of the world's largest companies within the maritime
world, such as shipbuilding, shipping and ship brokers.
Of course you can go maritime as well - in the form of mini-cruises
on the Oslo fjord. Most of them start in front of Oslo's impressive
City Hall, and they last from 1 to several hours. It is a great way to
see Oslo, and you will be offered sightseeing on your way. Among
the offers you will find the Viking Ship Museum, the Kon-Tiki Raft,
the Norwegian Folk Museum, the Holmenkollen Ski Jump with
museum and Vigeland Sculpture Park.
If you are fascinated by the Viking era the Viking Ship Museum,
located on the Bygdoy Peninsula, is a must. Here you can
experience a Viking burial vessel dating back to the 9th century.
The Kon-Tiki Raft is the real deal. The Balsawood Raft, that
Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl used to sail across the Pacific
Sea from Peru to Polynesia back in 1947, can still be viewed in
Oslo. You will find that on the Bygdoy Peninsula as well.
A visit to the Norwegian Folk Museum will make you feel that you
have traveled back in time. The beautiful old buildings make up the
world's oldest open air museum, and the exhibits feature daily life
and living condition in Norway from the 16th century to present
time.
The Holmenkollen Ski Jump hosts the annual World Cup in Nordic
disciplines and biathlon. The Ski Museum lets you experience 4000
years of exciting skiing history through an amazing show.
To my knowledge there is nowhere in the whole world, besides
from Oslo, where you can visit a sculpture park, and see more than
200 sculptures made by the same artist. This park features the
lifework of Gustav Vigeland; sculptures made in bronze, granite
and wrought iron.
Oslo was rated the most expensive city in the world in 2009 - but
don't let that stop you! Where there's a will there's a way! From
only €28 you can buy an Oslo Pass which gives you free admission
to 27 museums and Oslo attractions, and furthermore free travel
on public transport, discounts on shopping, food and a variety of
Oslo attractions.
