Gol Stave Church<\/p>\n

Oslo is a place with many things to do and see, but the museums at the\u00a0 Bygd\u00f8y<\/a> island which is one of the things I wanted to see most.<\/p>\n

Viking ship museum \u2013 Vikingskipshuset
\nFolk Museum \u2013 Norsk Folkemuseum
\nKon Tiki Museum
\nFram Museum<\/p>\n

As I said in my previous post, don’t forget to buy the Oslo Pass<\/a>, it will give you free acces to the museums in this island.<\/p>\n

Viking Ship Museum- Vikingskipshuset<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At this island, we can find the Viking Ship Museum<\/a>. This museum is the one I wanted to see most.
\nThis museum has many items that were used by the Vikings more than 1000 years ago, including wooden ships, wagons and agriculture tools.<\/p>\n

\"Vikingskipshuset\"The Oseberg ship<\/p>\n

\"Vikingskipshuset\"A burial chamber found inside of one of the ships. If you watched the movie “The 13th Warrior”, you should remember this in the beginning of the movie, where there is a Viking funeral.<\/p>\n

\"Vikingskipshuset\"<\/a>Shoes found within the ships.<\/p>\n

\"Vikingskipshuset\"A wagon used by the Vikings, also found inside one of the ships. This is the only known wagon of the Viking period.<\/p>\n

Folk Museum – Norsk Folkemuseum<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can’t miss the Folk Museum – Norsk Folkemuseum<\/a>
\nIn this museum, you will find wooden houses made 500 years ago, that shows how was the Norwegian life years ago.
\nAnother worth to see in this open air museum: The Gol Stave Church.<\/p>\n

\"Christiania\"Did you know that Oslo was called Christiania until 1925 ?<\/p>\n

\"WoodenMany wooden houses used 500 years ago<\/p>\n

\"Me<\/p>\n

Inside on of the houses, there was this lovely lady explaining to me the old norwegian traditions. She gave me a traditional norwegian coffee, made in the fireplace. A very nice experience and a nice place to be!<\/p>\n

Kon Tiki Museum<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In the same island, you can find the Kon Tiki Museum<\/a>
\nIn this museum, you can see the vessels that Thor Heyerdahl<\/a> used to cross the oceans. Thor believed in the theory that says that it was possible for the people of South America to reach the Polynesia in simple rafts like the one he built and used in 1947.<\/p>\n

In addiction, Thor build the R\u00e1 II, a vessel made of papyrus that he used to cross the Atlantic in 1970.<\/p>\n

Fram Museum<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The last museum I visited in the island was the Fram Museum<\/a>. In this museum you will see the ship used to go further north and further south in the world.
\nThe ship is the Polar Ship Fram. Unfortunately, I didn’t got pictures inside =\/ I really don’t know why, I just arrived home I realized that I had no pictures, BUT, I made some videos there. The two videos below can be watched in high definition. Yes, I have problems to use my camcorder and keep shaking all the time =)<\/p>\n

\"WaitingTo finish the day, nothing better than a good norwegian meal with norwegian beer while we waited for the boat back to Solo, with a splendid sea view<\/p>\n

No doubt, a wonderful day that will be in my memories forever =)\"page-divider\"<\/a><\/p>\n
