What about Oslo? ;)

in #photography7 years ago

Hello y'all! This is a quick photo tour in the city of Oslo, capital of Norway, where we stayed for a day with @creutzy after coming back from a hiking experience in Trolltunga! I will be posting soon about that, and he did already! Check it out: https://steemit.com/travel/@creutzy/trolltunga-the-trolls-tongue-breathtaking-views-whilst-hiking-and-camping-in-norway

Small city, just like most Scandinavian cities, but not very conventionally Scandinavian architecture wise! Oslo in comparison with Copenhagen, Stockholm and Helsinki is remarkably diverse when it comes to architecture, which is an interesting fact I think everyone should know when planning of visiting, and especially enjoyable for architecture lovers! ;)

We stayed at the Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel, an incredible place with (once more!) a fascinating view and we were lucky enough to get a sunny day to walk around and take pictures!


Typical (?) apartment building - Just beautiful!


The view from the 15th floor of our hotel!


Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel - oh so proud!


@creutzy while working ;)


Construction site of the new National Library, to open in 2020!


The Opera House


Glass artwork in the sea, next to the Opera House


DFDS Cruises - the way from Oslo to Copenhagen (even though we actually took the bus instead ;) )


Reflection - next to the Opera house building


The Parliament


The Royal Palace


Modern sculpture at the Vigeland Park

And here's a slideshow of facades and buildings around the city center - some traditional, some modern, some strange, some interesting - Oslo has it all! Enjoy the tour and don't forget to smile!
