Oslo : Why go there?

Oslo is a capital of imposing beauty, nestled in a green setting in the heart of a fjord and magnificent forests. The city of 360,000 inhabitants is a cultural capital that never ceases to renew itself. Oslo can be explored by streetcar, bus or on foot, and it's a pleasure to lose yourself in a café, restaurant or museum. The heart of the city, from Karl Johans Gate to Aker Brygge, combines history, trendy cafés and restaurants, magnificent museums and futuristic architecture. To the east, Grünerløkka, once a working-class district, is now home to numerous bars and cafés. Bygdøy to the south offers beautiful walks and fascinating museums. The surrounding area, just a few metro stops from the bustling city center, is all nature again. And whatever the season, the weather is so good all year round that it's considered one of the most pleasant cities in the world!
