Best Things to Do in Oslo

Oslo attractions are refined and laid-back. Enjoy a coffee and snack at one of the many cafés (travelers recommend Café Mono), take a stroll through the city center on a warm summer's evening, head north to go skiing in the winter or gaze at one of Edvard Munch's The Scream paintings in the Munch Museum (As soon as possible, before one is stolen again). Also be sure to check out the diverse and world-renowned music scene; the city has a wide variety of musical venues, from opera to jazz to rock.
