I've been a fan of Ting since my first visit to this store. Although on the smaller side the shop…read moreis filled floor to ceiling with some amazing home goods. A fun selection of kitchen items, lamps, pillows and pictures in a fun variety of colors. They sell high quality stuff. Its also really well lit and extremely organized and immaculately clean. If your looking for a gift for a friend or family member I recommend stopping into Ting.

This is a beautiful Culture Centre (Arts Centre? Not sure of the direct translation) just outside…read morethe centre of Oslo. Even if you're traveling with small kids or fussy "meh, not really into art"-types, Henie Onstad is worth a visit. It's a beautiful site, and the drive from Oslo (we took a car, but local public transportation makes it accessible via bus) takes you along the water. Henie Onstad has an indoor structure with a gift shop and whatever exhibitions are on at the time (note: there is a cost for admission). There is also a lovely cafe serving a variety of options. When we were there most were opting for glasses of chilled wine on a balmy July afternoon, with outdoor seating overlooking the water. I can think of few locations better. The real star of the show, though, is the outside of Henie Onstad. It serves as a great public park space where kids and dogs and local Norwegians sit, and picnic, and sun themselves on the rocks. Because the site is on a point there are both public and more private spots to relax; in the case of the former there are two main swimming areas with great jumping spots to launch off of into the water. Spotted around the grounds are also many sculptures; some abstract, some less so, and it's a great time just walking around trying to pick out all of the art. No wifi, but free parking. Recommended visit. Yelp note: it seems like a destination spot for a lot of locals on a sunny day. Looking out over the marina remember to bring your bathing suit and maybe even a few sausages...the man next to us had a portable grill so you could get lucky and score a cheap meal AND a great swimming hole surrounded by art at no-cost (DREAMDATE).

Amazing museum with a view of the city at the waterfront, also right and right next to the only…read morebeach in Oslo, very tiny little staccato...according to our guide person. Well the museum is about Munch and his works, especially the "scream" ones. Three version in a dark room within a room that only shown one at a time in 30mins rotation. Sure it is a well known work but his others works are equally or some can be greater from my perspective. His work is only shown 1/3 or even 1/4 of the museum. The rest are many varies exhibition that both enjoyable and you can take part into it. It's a modern building and quite unique architecture but nonetheless, it's very lively vibe and a lot of folks are visiting so plan ahead of time and get your tixs in advance if you can. Definitely a must checkout place.

Munich's work is interesting, but the cost and time to see this museum isn't really worth it to me…read more I used the Oslo pass and only spent a short time browsing and enjoyed a glass of wine on the bar at the 13th floor. The museum itself is beautiful and nicely presented.
