Karl Johans is the main pedestrian street of Oslo and approx 1020 meters long. Lined with impressive buildings and boutiques, this is where you go to "shop until you" drop.
The Norwegian Parliament
The Parliament of Norway (Stortinget) is located right along the main pedestrian street Karl Johans gate, and houses various occupations and activities.
Akershus Fortress is one of the impressive landmarks of the City of Oslo, located along the water and overlooking the Oslo Fjord.
Bankplassen
Bankplassen (The Bank Square) indicates where the Bank of Norway was once located. The square is also known for Engebret Café, which was frequented by famous Norwegians such as Ibsen and Munch.
Walk through Christiana Torv, where we find the statue of Christian IV’s hand. The area Kvadraturen ("The Quadrature") is named after the rectangular street pattern of Christian IV's Renaissance town.
Vigeland Park is home to over 200 sculptures sculpted by one man only. Learn more about the man behind them, Gustav Vigeland (and pick your favourite!)
The Fram Museum is a top-rated attraction in Oslo that tells the story of Norwegian polar exploration and the nation's polar heroes. Its two buildings display two original polar ships, the Gjøa and the Fram, that were used to explore the two most hostile regions in the world: the Arctic and the Antarctic.
