Oslo? Mmmm where is that? Is that somewhere around Solo, Indonesia? Big NO!! :D
Well, Solo eits Oslo is the capital city of Norway. Yap, the famous region for seeing Aurora Borealis and great nature scenery. But, please note, Oslo is not the right one. If you want to see the great Aurora, you have to go to the north part of Norway. Actually, I am not going to write about Aurora in this post. What this post about is just my experience for visiting Oslo within short time, a very short one. So, there are a lot of subjectivities in this post which is affected by the limited time to explore more about this city. So, let just start the review.

| Oslo Central Station |
We arrived in Oslo around 11 am. Mmm no, I guess it was so close to 12 in the afternoon. And that was during winter period in early of January. So, the daylight was very short, sun would getting down at 3 pm which mean we did not have a lot of time to explore the city. And please underline, we went there on Sunday, and we just realized after we arrived that most of stores were close on Sunday! It is important for us, tourists who actually will spend several times of their visit for window shopping. We just had no where to go then. But, we still tried for enjoying Oslo though. Bringing a one day pass ticket which cost for about 90 NOK, we started our "trip" by visiting Vigeland Park.

| One of the statue at Vigeland Park |
Vigeland Park is a huge park which filled by a lot of statues, well unique nude statues. Each statue have their own captured activities, but I just did not get the meaning. And visiting the park during winter period was a big mistake for us. Well, we just did not have other option. What we saw there, was just a bleak landscape with nude sculptures which totally not fun. We went up to the highest point of the park, then we saw a good view from the top. It was nice, but the thought of how great the park will be during summer time kept passing by. And our feet were freezing but we had no where to warm up them.
