When visiting a new country, it’s a must to try the local cuisine! Oslo, Norway’s capital, offers a delightful blend of traditional Norwegian dishes and modern international flavours.
Chasing Northern Lights at Leknes Norway
My sisters have visited Norway and Iceland multiple times but have never witnessed the Northern Lights. Determined to change that, they booked a four-day cabin stay in Reine last December.
Little did they know that many shops and activities would be closed during the Christmas period. For instance, all supermarkets were closed from 24th to 27th December, and several traditional restaurants had already shut down from December 15th. Many activities and museums were also unavailable in December.
Nasjonalgalleriet, Oslo Norway
Nasjonalgalleriet is a national museum in Oslo and houses the first version of Edvard Munch’s The Scream from 1893. It was a 21-minute walk from our hotel, or you can take a tram towards Aker Brygge, with a stop conveniently located in front of the museum. The Nobel Peace Prize Museum is also nearby.
Travelling to Oslo, Lekness & Gothenburg for Christmas
Last month, we met up with my family from Singapore in Norway to spend Christmas together. We departed Heathrow Airport on a Friday night, taking Scandinavian Airlines SAS.
