Oslo Opera House

Oslo, the capital of Norway I've been back to Oslo again after 11 years. The Oslo Opera House and the Munch Museum (opening in 2021) are located near Oslo Central Station, about a 300-meter walk away! These two buildings are considered landmarks of Oslo, Norway, and are truly worth seeing. The Oslo Central Library is also about a 20-minute walk away, so you can plan a day to leisurely stroll and appreciate the artistic and cultural heritage of these buildings! Highly recommended! Don't miss them when visiting Norway!
