The portrait of Oslo from the "landmark" point of view is both simple and interesting. It's simple - because unlike other European capitals, it's not that there are a lot of architectural monuments and museums. Interesting - because of the available not too extensive "material" Norwegians have managed to create landmark places of the city.
Take, for example, painting .Norwegian artists in general are practically unknown to the general public .However, there are few people who have not heard about the famous "Scream" Munch - albeit not least thanks to the cinema .And Edward Munch, in turn, with purely Norwegian practicality, drew several variants of a picture strategically located in different museums in Oslo, and the calculation of the Norwegians that the tourist wants to see everything was justified, so that today the public has more than enough in the Museum of Munch , and in the National Gallery .
Or, say, the Nobel Prize. Everyone knows that in five disciplines it is awarded in Stockholm - but the Norwegians have also flocked here, "snatched away" the Nobel Peace Prize. And now for a century for one day in the year draw attention to the City Hall, where the ceremony is taking place, skilfully diluting the broadcast with fine advertising of the country's tourism wealth.
It is impossible not to mention the masterpieces of modern architecture in Oslo - for example, the Opera House, curious not only by the current lines and sloping forms, but also by the nice adaptability of the roof for sunbathing. And in Oslo, just an astronomical number of monuments, most of which is located in Vigeland Park: a whole 212 sculptures on life issues.
In a word, the capital of Norway is able to surprise with hidden masterpieces - just come!
