Le cœur urbain de la Norvège, Oslo regorge de musées d'art de classe mondiale, de cafés confortables et d'une architecture à couper le souffle. Les visites à pied, les promenades guidées à vélo et les bus à arrêts multiples sont parmi les meilleurs moyens d'explorer les sites culturels de la capitale norvégienne, notamment le musée Vigeland, le chantier naval Aker Brygge, la forteresse d'Akershus et le musée des navires vikings. Une autre façon populaire d'explorer Oslo est à travers sa nourriture; la scène culinaire en plein essor attire les gourmets du monde entier. La proximité de la ville avec la nature en fait également un point de départ populaire pour les croisières autour des fjords norvégiens et les incursions à Bergen et Tromsø.
Deciding when to visit Oslo really depends on what you plan to do there. Summer’s great for warm-weather activities such as fjord hopping, while winter’s ultra-freezing temperatures are perfect for winter sports. Coincide springtime visits with May's National Day, which sees the streets fill with parades, marching bands, and locals wearing traditional costumes.
Oslo is known for its fjord setting and a waterfront lined with cultural attractions from the Munch Museum to the striking Oslo Opera House. The city’s maritime history encompasses Vikings and polar explorers, which you can learn about at the Viking Ship Museum and the Fram Museum.
...PlusTwo or three days in Oslo should be enough time to see most of the city’s attractions, including the Oslo Opera House, National Museum, Royal Palace, and Fram Museum, and to get onto the fjord by boat. With more than three days, you can add on a day trip to Lillehammer.
...PlusYes. Technically you can see the northern lights in Oslo, but it is unlikely. The city is too far south for reliable aurora-viewing and there is too much light pollution to see them when they do appear. Northern Norway, especially Tromsø, is a better place to see the northern lights.
...PlusOslo and Bergen are wonderful cities. Both are filled with history and have thriving cultural scenes, and both have access to water. Bergen, which is surrounded by mountains, has the slight upper hand when it comes to nature. Oslo is a better bet if you want a cosmopolitan city feel.
...PlusDon’t miss visiting the Munch Museum and National Museum. Art lovers should also explore the sprawling sculpture parks at Vigeland and Ekeberg—the view from the latter is noteworthy. Get out onto the water, whether island-hopping by boat or jumping into the chilly fjord from one of its several floating saunas.
...PlusYes. While Oslo is often overlooked in favor of Copenhagen and Stockholm, it is a gem of a city that is filled with culture, history, and stylish and creative people. One of its greatest assets is its ease of access to nature: a perfect complement to the modern cityscape.
