Norway (/ˈnɔːrweɪ/ (About this sound listen) NAWR-way; Norwegian: About this sound Norge (Bokmål) or About this sound Noreg (Nynorsk)),[10] officially the Kingdom of Norway, is a sovereign state and unitary monarchy whose territory comprises the western portion of the Scandinavian Peninsula plus the remote island of Jan Mayen and the archipelago of Svalbard.[note 1] The Antarctic Peter I Island and the sub-Antarctic Bouvet Island are dependent territories and thus not considered part of the Kingdom. Norway also lays claim to a section of Antarctica known as Queen Maud Land. Until 1814, the kingdom included the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Iceland. It also included Bohuslän until 1658, Jämtland and Härjedalen until 1645, Shetland and Orkney until 1468, and the Hebrides and Isle of Man until 1266.
Norway has a total area of 385,252 square kilometres (148,747 sq mi) and a population of 5,258,317 (as of January 2017).[12] The country shares a long eastern border with Sweden (1,619 km or 1,006 mi long). Norway is bordered by Finland and Russia to the north-east, and the Skagerrak strait to the south, with Denmark on the other side. Norway has an extensive coastline, facing the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea.
King Harald V of the Dano-German House of Glücksburg is the current King of Norway. Erna Solberg became Prime Minister in 2013, replacing Jens Stoltenberg. A constitutional monarchy, Norway divides state power between the Parliament, the Cabinet and the Supreme Court, as determined by the 1814 Constitution. The kingdom is established as a merger of several petty kingdoms. By the traditional count from the year 872, the kingdom has existed continuously for 1,144 years, and the list of Norwegian monarchs includes over sixty kings and earls.
Norway has both administrative and political subdivisions on two levels: counties and municipalities. The Sámi people have a certain amount of self-determination and influence over traditional territories through the Sámi Parliament and the Finnmark Act. Norway maintains close ties with the European Union and the United States. Norway is a founding member of the United Nations, NATO, the Council of Europe, the Antarctic Treaty, and the Nordic Council; a member of the European Economic Area, the WTO, and the OECD; and is also a part of the Schengen Area.
The country maintains a combination of market economy and a Nordic welfare model with universal health care and a comprehensive social security system. Norway has extensive reserves of petroleum, natural gas, minerals, lumber, seafood, fresh water, and hydropower. The petroleum industry accounts for around a quarter of the country's gross domestic product (GDP).[13] On a per-capita basis, Norway is the world's largest producer of oil and natural gas outside the Middle East.[14][15]
The country has the fourth-highest per capita income in the world on the World Bank and IMF lists.[16] On the CIA's GDP (PPP) per capita list (2015 estimate) which includes territories and some regions, Norway ranks as number eleven.[17] It has the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, with a value of 960 billion USD.[18] Since 2009, Norway has the highest Human Development Index ranking in the world, a position also held previously between 2001 and 2006.[19] It also has the highest inequality-adjusted ranking.[20][21][22] Norway ranks first on the World Happiness Report,[23] the OECD Better Life Index, the Index of Public Integrity, and the Democracy Index.[24]

Oslo Attractions, Museums - Norway Travel Tips
Passes:
Operating on similar lines to the city passes available in the other Scandinavian capitals, the Oslo Pass is good value for tourists. As well as free admission to over 30 museums, the pass offers unlimited local travel on all forms of transport (including the ferries plying the waters between the city and the islands of the Oslofjord), free entrance to Tøyenbadet and Frognerbadet swimming pools and free parking in the municipal car parks. It also gives price reductions on sightseeing trips and numerous other discounts, including for cinemas, restaurants, car hire and souvenir shops. You can buy cards for one, two or three days (concessions are available) at the tourist information office, hotels, Narvesen newsagents and various other outlets.
Akershus Slott and Festning (Akerhus Palace and Fortress)
King Haakon V Magnusson ordered the building of Akershus Slott, in 1299. Although damaged, repaired, fortified and renovated over the centuries, the ancient walls and central medieval tower of this imposing fortified palace still dominate the seafront. The town was rebuilt within the fortress walls after the great fire of 1624. The 17th-century renovations of the castle, with magnificent banqueting halls and reception rooms, stand above dank medieval dungeons and underground passageways. The grounds also house the Norges Hjemmefrontsmuseum (Resistance Museum), with its poignant exhibits dating from the Nazi occupation of Norway.
Opening Times: Mon-Sat 1000-1600, Sun 1230-1600 (May-Aug); Sat-Sun 1200-1700, Mon-Fri closed (Sep-Dec). Guided tours of the Festning are available daily (Jun-Aug).
Admission Fees: Yes
Disabled Access: Yes
Unesco: No
Address: Akershuskaien, Oslo, Norway
Frognerbadet
Next to the wonderful Vigeland Sculpture Park, the open-air swimming pool complex of Frognerbadet is one of the most popular summer spots in the city. With three open-air pools, including a diving pool, water slides and separate adult and children sections, the entire city seems to pack into the complex at weekends, although many Norwegians make the most of the glorious summer days, with everyone from families to groups of friends converging on the pools every single day of the week. The weekend often sees long queues so a morning visit is recommended. Frognerbadet is well equipped with changing rooms, toilets and a cafeteria.
Opening Times: Mon-Fri 0700-1930, Sat-Sun 1000-1800 (mid-May-Aug).
Admission Fees: Yes
Disabled Access: No
Unesco: No
Address: Middelthuns gate 28, Oslo, Norway
Munch Museet (Munch Museum)
The Munch Museum, to the east of the city centre, lies in the broad parklands of Tøyenhagen, close to the museums of the Bygdøy peninsula. The National Gallery might have Munch's best-known work, but the Munch Museum has some real gems, including Summer Night/The Voice and his 1902 Madonna. The museum hit the headlines in 2004 when two of the most famous works were stolen, but has stepped up security since then. The museum also hosts an ever-changing roster of exhibitions giving an insight into different aspects of Munch's oeuvre.
Opening Times: Daily 1000-1800 (Jun-Aug); Tues-Wed and Fri-Sat 1000-1600, Thurs 1000-2000, Sun 1000-1700, closed Mon (Sep-May).
Admission Fees: Yes
Disabled Access: Yes
Unesco: No
Address: Tøyengaten 53, Oslo, Norway
Vigeland Sculpture Park
Unusual, unique and occasionally spooky, the Vigeland Sculpture Park is home to over 200 bronze, granite and cast iron sculptures by 20th-century artist Gustav Vigeland who was also responsible for the design of the park itself, and the stunning stained-glass windows of the cathedral. Located in the southern borough of Frogner, the sculpture park is one of Norway's most visited attractions with over 1 million visitors each year, although thanks to its large acreage, it never feels crowded.
Opening Times: Daily 24 hours.
Admission Fees: No
Disabled Access: Yes
Unesco: No
Address: Frognerparken, Oslo, Norway

10 Best Places to Visit in Austria - Travel Video
Austria is a country that is as well known for its scenic beauty as it is for its cultural activities. Situated in the Alps, it is a very popular place with skiers and hikers, but it is also a country that gave the world an important musical heritage, ranging from the classical composer Mozart to the Strauss waltzes and the Von Trapp family whose story was told in The Sound of Music. An overview of the best places to visit in Austria:
Restaurants in Oslo - Norway

Oslo - Norway Tourism, Travel Guide
Restaurants in Oslo - Norway
Copenhagen might have Rene Redzepi, but Oslo has no shortage of talented chefs and top places to eat. Boasting four Michelin-starred restaurants among its food outlets, the cuisine on offer in Oslo varies wildly with everything from local Norwegian to Indian, Thai, Japanese and even Ethiopian eats on offer. Prices are generally pretty steep but there is a small band of Oslo eateries where fine food and low prices co-exist.
The Oslo restaurants below have been hand-picked by our guide author and are grouped into three pricing categories:
Expensive (over Kr1,000)
Moderate (Kr500 to Kr1,000)
Cheap (up to Kr500)
These Oslo restaurant prices are for an average three-course meal and for half a bottle of house wine or cheapest equivalent per person; they do not include tax or tip. Reservations are recommended wherever possible and in the case of upscale and popular restaurants, they are essential.
Restaurant Eik Annen Etage
Price: Expensive
Located in the Hotel Continental, this Michelin-starred restaurant is something of an Oslo institution. Offering what it describes as an 'international menu inspired by French cuisine', it is located centrally close to the National Theatre. The restaurant seats up to 90 diners, while the attached bar is buzzing on theatre nights and is a good spot for a postprandial aperitif.
Address: Hotel Continental, Stortingsgata, Oslo, Norway
Spisestedet Feinschmecker
Price: Expensive
One of Oslo's four Michelin-starred restaurants, Feinschmecker opened in 1990 and rapidly gained a reputation as one of the city's best eateries. It is located in the Frogner district to the east of the city centre. In addition to its à la carte menu, it offers a fixed priced daily five-course meal. An extensive wine list and a daily vegetarian alternative are available.
Address: Balchens Gate 5, Oslo, Norway
Bagatelle
Price: Expensive
Probably Norway's best-known restaurant, Bagatelle was reopened in 2011 following a period of renovation and is currently the holder of one Michelin star. French style is very much the order of the day here. The menu is based on an eight or 11 courses containing a broad selection of innovative dishes using ingredients from local suppliers; and the food is complemented with a choice of more than 400 wines. The interior is decorated with works by well-known artists.
Address: Bygdøy Allé 3, Oslo, Norway
Oslo Spiseforretning
Price: Moderate
Located by the Middelalderpark (Medieval Park) in the Gamle Byen area immediately southeast of the central station, this is an unusual venue offering authentic Norwegian fare such as reindeer and various seasonal fish made with locally sourced ingredients. The 1920s-style décor is slightly off-putting but very cosy in winter when the logs in the open fireplace are lit.
Address: Oslogate 15, Oslo, Norway
Theatercafeen
Price: Moderate
A buzzing atmosphere combined with international cuisine of excellent standard continues to make this café and restaurant one of the most popular in Oslo. Located next to the National Theatre, this is a legendary Viennese-style establishment with a unique ambience. Probably the best place in town for celebrity spotting, it was listed by the New York Times as one of the 10 most popular cafés in the world.
Address: Stortingsgata 24-26, Oslo, Norway
Angus Steakhouse
Price: Cheap
Attached to the popular Scotsman pub, the Angus Steakhouse has a straightforward menu of pizzas and steaks presented in a basic way at a basic price -- cheap (by Oslo standards) and cheerful is the order of the day here. Reached through the bar upstairs, it offers varying fixed menus at different times of the day.
Address: Karl Johans gate 17, Oslo, Norway
Lorry
Price: Cheap
With an eclectic mix of interior design fittings, ranging from bicycles swinging from the ceiling to the ceramic busts adorning the walls plus comfy leather booths, Lorry's provides a warm and inviting atmosphere in which to enjoy its hearty fare. Simple yet honest grub is the main draw, with door-step sandwiches, quiche and burgers popular choices among the many punters.
Address: Parkveien 12, Oslo, Norway

Norway (Norwegian: Norge), officially the Kingdom of Norway, is a Nordic country in Northwestern Europe whose core territory comprises the western and northernmost portion of the Scandinavian Peninsula; the remote island of Jan Mayen and the archipelago of Svalbard are also part of the Kingdom of Norway. The Antarctic Peter I Island and the sub-Antarctic Bouvet Island are dependent territories and thus not considered part of the kingdom. Norway also lays claim to a section of Antarctica known as Queen Maud Land.
Norway has a total area of 385,252 square kilometres (148,747 sq mi) and a population of 5,312,300 (as of August 2018). The country shares a long eastern border with Sweden (1,619 km or 1,006 mi long). Norway is bordered by Finland and Russia to the north-east, and the Skagerrak strait to the south, with Denmark on the other side. Norway has an extensive coastline, facing the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea.
King Harald V of the Dano-German House of Glücksburg is the current King of Norway. Erna Solberg became prime minister in 2013 and was reelected in September 2017. Erna Solberg replaced Jens Stoltenberg who was the prime minister between 2000 and 2001 and 2005–2013. A unitary sovereign state with a constitutional monarchy, Norway divides state power between the Parliament, the cabinet and the Supreme Court, as determined by the 1814 Constitution. The kingdom was established as a merger of a large number of petty kingdoms. By the traditional count from 872, the kingdom has existed continuously for 1,145 years, and the list of Norwegian monarchs includes over sixty kings and earls. From 1537 to 1814, Norway was a part of the Kingdom of Denmark-Norway, and from 1814 to 1905, it was in a personal union with the Kingdom of Sweden. Norway was neutral during the first World War. Norway remained neutral until April 1940 when the country was invaded and occupied by Germany until the end of World War II.
Norway has both administrative and political subdivisions on two levels: counties and municipalities. The Sámi people have a certain amount of self-determination and influence over traditional territories through the Sámi Parliament and the Finnmark Act. Norway maintains close ties with both the European Union and the United States. Norway is a founding member of the United Nations, NATO, the European Free Trade Association, the Council of Europe, the Antarctic Treaty, and the Nordic Council; a member of the European Economic Area, the WTO, and the OECD; and a part of the Schengen Area.
Norway maintains the Nordic welfare model with universal health care and a comprehensive social security system, and its values are rooted in egalitarian ideals. The Norwegian state has large ownership positions in key industrial sectors, having extensive reserves of petroleum, natural gas, minerals, lumber, seafood, and fresh water. The petroleum industry accounts for around a quarter of the country's gross domestic product (GDP). On a per-capita basis, Norway is the world's largest producer of oil and natural gas outside of the Middle East.
The country has the fourth-highest per capita income in the world on the World Bank and IMF lists. On the CIA's GDP (PPP) per capita list (2015 estimate) which includes autonomous territories and regions, Norway ranks as number eleven. It has the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, with a value of USD 1 trillion. Norway has had the highest Human Development Index ranking in the world since 2009, a position also held previously between 2001 and 2006. It also had the highest inequality-adjusted ranking until 2018 when Iceland moved to the top of the list. Norway ranked first on the World Happiness Report for 2017 and currently ranks first on the OECD Better Life Index, the Index of Public Integrity, and the Democracy Index. Norway has one of the lowest crime rates in the world.
