Oslo is known for being a city of contrasts and multitude. Its natural beauty, in combination with all the facilities of a modern metropolis, adds to the charm of a city often called "the world's biggest village".

Its beautiful natural surroundings, varied architecture, and multinational inhabitants contribute to the city’s unique atmosphere. More modern districts include the bustling Aker Brygge area, a rehabilitated old shipyard, with its many shops, restaurants and cafés.

And the development that is taking place at the moment, with focus on design and modern architecture, will make Oslo one of the most exciting and vibrant cities in northern Europe.

Yet, the old-time charm is always right there on our doorstep.
