The 7 Best Water & Amusement Parks in Oslo, Eastern Norway
The 1000-year-old Norwegian capital sits at the head of Oslo Fjord. This stunning setting gives hints of the wild wonders that lie just beyond the city. From taking in visual delights at Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Viking Ship Museum, the Munch Museum and Holmenkollen, to the challenging content within the new Nobel Peace Centre and the Holocoust Center, Oslo offers plenty of food for thought. The Oslo Pass allows free travel on public transport, free parking and many museum and sight admissions.

Norsk Folkemuseum shows how people lived in Norway from 1500 to the present through its collections from around the country. Among the highlights are the Stave Church from Gol, dating from 1200 and an apartment building with homes from the 20th Century. 160 historic buildings in the big Open-Air Museum represent different regions in Norway, different time periods, as well as differences between town and country, and social classes. Indoor exhibits present Norwegian heritage. The museum has a comprehensive activity program and is open all year.

The vast variety of homes, farm buildings, shops, churches and other structures in phenomenal condition provided an entry into another world and culture. The costumed interpreters scattered throughout the site were exceptionally knowledgeable, friendly and eager to pass on their knowledge, particularly if you showed any interest. One standout example, Levina Storakern, who portrayed a farmer's wife, not only described her "life" as a housewife but also demonstrated her talent as a musician. When the subject of music arose, she offered to play a cow horn, which was then followed by a mini-concert on a folk fiddle and Hardanger fiddle. Her explanation of various musical styles was very informative and enhanced our experience. There are thorough explanations in English throughout the site and all of the costumed interpreters speak English. The Gol Stave Church (one of only 29 remaining) was exceptionally well preserved. The "apartments" tucked away in a separate building cover a period from 1879-2002 and illustrated the interesting development of urban life. Of the 3 Open Air museums we visited in Norway and Sweden, this was our favorite. It is well worth a visit.
