A city of fjords, bold modern architecture, and some of the world's finest nature experiences.
Oslo sits at the head of Oslofjord surrounded by hills and is the gateway to Norway's dramatic nature. The Opera House on the waterfront, Vigeland Sculpture Park, and world-class museums like the Nasjonalmuseet combine with a city just an hour from mountain skiing or coastal sailing. Living standards are high — and so are the prices.
