I was impressed by the thoughtful design and the variety of play options available for children. The area felt safe and welcoming, with plenty of nearby seating for parents. It is great to see such a high-quality public playground integrated into one of Oslo's most popular districts. A wonderful place for children to have fun while adults enjoy the surroundings.

This is an amazing area to come visit while in Oslo!!…read more While here on vacation in Oslo, I was interested to visit bygdoy for a few various reasons. First of all, this is a nice area with lots of natural scenery, fresh air and open space. Great to visit in order to escape the craziness of the main city area and to experience the museums (the majority of the museums in Oslo are situated out here on this peninsula). We took a ferry from City Hall to get here after purchasing our Oslo Pass. The ferry was a very enjoyable ride. It was a beautiful, warm, sunny day and made for a great boat ride, during which we got to capture lots of great pictures and see some open water. Many nice houses and boats situated along the oslofjord to observe on the way. Upon arriving, we were glad to see much open green grass to picnic and enjoy the view; the museums are also located close by. We first stopped at Fram (polar ship) Museum, but decided to skip Kon-Tiki Museum. After that, we wanted to see the viking ship museum and the norwegian folk museum, but we quickly discovered after consulting the map that those 2 places were located a bit of a walk away. After enjoying a nice, pleasant walk we arrived at the museums. They were both very enjoyable and could spend hours there. There are many homes and locals located on this Peninsula of Oslo, which i was surprised to discover; however overall we had a fabulous time and really enjoyed having a visit here. I would recommend to other people who come here on vacation. By the way, the Oslo pass is worth the money in order to get entrance to all the museums and transport here!

Very beautiful part of Oslo,i like it so much. It is ful of historical museum,and very good see viewread more

This is a very hyped-up area in Oslo. It promises to be this place to hang out in cools cafes,…read morebars, and restaurants. I guess its interesting but it all seems just a little too much contrived. Basically, Grünerløkka is this one very long street. Yes, there are tons of places where you can grab a drink or a meal. And yes, in the evening this place can get pretty full of both the local crowd and the, "Looking for something Oslo-ish," travelers. So, it serves its purpose. But, it's just really not that much fun. Some of the bars get way too crowded awhile others are just empty and looking for customers. That's the paradox of this area. This street does have few shops that are pretty interesting. So, it is worth the visit. Just don't have too high of expectations. I'm not saying anything negative about this area, you just need to know what to expect.

Speciality shops, the best coffee shops in town, the food court Mathallen, and plenty of restaurants, pubs & cafe's. The list is too long to complete, but it's truly a really cool, vibrant part of town, no matter when you are there. And it's a very short walk from your hotel.
