    Close to Vigeland park is Vigeland Museum. The museum features many of the models used for the park and what I found most interesting was alternate ideas Vigeland had for the park.

    This is a little off the beaten path in Toyen and is run by the University of Oslo. The highlight is a section on Alpine plants of the world

    Although an international capital, Oslo has a real small city feel, largely due to the fact its spread out and in a very beautiful natural setting. To see some of this take a cruise on Oslo Fjord.
