Oslo like most of Norway is beatuiful to an unrivaled extent. If you plan to travel to Europe I advise that Scandanavia especailly Norway and Sweden should be a priority. I also recomend that if you are to fly into Gardermoen that you stay at least a night in the prestigous SAS hotel in Oslo. This trip will not dissapoint you definitley do not allow Norways reputation of being an artic nation deceive you.... More
