Along the street are many beautiful sights and attractions, including Egertorget; a large square where musicians and jugglers gather to entertain the masses. At the western end of central Oslo, you’ll get an up-close-and-personal view of how the monarchy lives at Slottsparken, where the Royal Palace sits grandly.

Go from modern to medieval, the Akershus Fortress is a proud pillar of Oslo’s past and present. It has withstood many sieges since its construction in the 1300s and now serves as a popular venue for concerts and holiday celebrations. Millions of people flock to Vigeland Sculpture Park each year to see the 200+ unique statues created by sculptor Gustav Vigeland.

Change your perspective! One of the amazing features of this iconic landmark is, of all things, the roof. Designed to give the waterfront back to visitors, you’ll be able to see everything from the fjord archipelago and its dwellings to Oslo’s cityscape and the mountains beyond.

Another iconic landmark, the Tivoli Gardens, was founded in 1843 and has become a national treasure.

Continue on to see the Stockholm Palace, first built in the 13th century as a fortress, it is now the private residence of the Swedish royal family.
Details: Vasa Museum visit
 Built in the 1600s by Dutch master shipwright Henrik Hybertsson and his business partner, Arendt de Groote, the Vasa was one of the most powerful warships to sail the Baltic. When fully outfitted with ten sails, 64 cannons, 120 tons of ballast and hundreds of sculptures the ship weighed over 1200 tons. The maiden voyage of the sea beast would be its last; after making it less than a mile and still in sight of the shipyard, it leaned onto its portside, filled with water, and sank. In September of 1956, navy salvage divers discovered the impeccably preserved warship but it wasn’t until April 1961 that the Vasa would reappear from its resting place of 333 years.

Uspenski Cathedral is the largest Eastern Orthodox church in western Europe. The cathedral is dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos (the death of the Virgin Mary). The exterior, while moderately decorated, is still striking with its deep-red brick walls and green-gold onion domes.
