  • Hi everyone and welcome back to our RUclips channel!
    This is last video in our series about Oslo and we want to share the top attractions of our capital. Today, we’re starting with the Oslo Opera House. Even though it is very summery in Oslo now this was filmed in November on a beautiful, but a cold day.
    Join us as we explore this architectural marvel, completed in 2008, with stunning acoustics and a roof you can walk on. Learn about its history, cost, and the Snøhetta architects who designed it.
    Next, we’ll head to the Munch Museum, which took 20 years to build and now enriches our lives with its extensive collection of Edvard Munch’s works. We’ll also show you the impressive “Mother” sculpture by Tracey Emin nearby.
    We’ll walk you through Karl Johan Street, from the Parliament to the Royal Palace, and share tips on seeing the Nobel Peace Prize laureate at the Grand Hotel. Don’t miss the National Theatre, National Museum, and more!
    Finally, we’ll visit the Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, designed by Renzo Piano, showcasing works by Damien Hirst and Jeff Koons.
    If you enjoyed this virtual tour, give us a thumbs up, subscribe, and consider joining our membership for exclusive content. Thanks for watching, and we hope to see you in Norway soon!

    Thank you for the visit to central Oslo this morning. I haven't been there for about 37 years and am surprised by all the changes. My grandfather stood guard at the royal palace at the turn of the last century. One of my cousins stood guard at the palace years later and others were connected to the band. My grandmother stood in front of the Grand Hotel when King Haakon and his family arrived in Oslo and she told of seeing the royal family walking in the park.. Some relatives lived on Kral Johan years ago. The West Train Station brought back memories for me as I took the train to Larvik several times from that station. Akershus was a favorite place to visit and have ties to those who built the fortress centuries ago. Good memories. Thank you for sharing. 😀😀

    Carlos and Arni, this video makes me want to move to Norway so much!! I used to live near San Francisco in California here in the states!! I went to the opera, I went heard many Musicals, And Many wonderful Orchestra!! Oh, how I miss that!! Now I live where there is nothing!! I can't even go to Detroit! I don't even know if there is any kind of theater groups or any thing like that!! Where I live, there is basically not much in the way of culture!! It gets very Boring!! I would love to go to a big Museum but the one that I could go to is mainly filled with cars!! And very expensive to get in!! This area just doesn't have anything, not even a nice quilt shop!! I have to mail order everthing!! You have the best of everything where you are!! Well all for now, I hope you are both are well and are staying safe!! God bless you both! Thank you for another wonderful video!!

    This is one of my favourite videos from you. I loved it, and the other Oslo videos too. Thank you for sharing them with us. Unfortunately I won't be able to visit Norway as planned this year so I will make a play list of all your Oslo videos so I am ready for when I can visit. Your comments about having Munch in your life resonated with me. I have favourite artists who enrich my life and bring inspiration, yourselves included. Life would be very dull indeed without Munch and the work and shenanigans of ARNE & CARLOS.

    This brings back nice memories of my time in Oslo before the cruise. I probably asked our guide at the time, but I have forgotten what the sculpture that looks kind of like a sailboat is that you can see between the opera house and the ferry to Denmark. Does it have a name, or is there anything you can tell me about it? Also,I’m glad that when we were there, the museum had a couple of your Christmas balls on display.
