Timeline

  1. 17:08

    Lofoten fiskerestaurant

    Grab a bite at this exclusive seafood spot near the water. Their fish soup is a classic way to start an Oslo evening before the crowds arrive.

  2. 17:38

    Astrup Fearnley Museet

    Walk to the Renzo Piano-designed museum. Spend the remaining golden light wandering the green oasis and beach area. The architecture looks striking as the sun dips low toward the SW.

  3. 18:23

    Astrup Fearnley Museet

    Head inside for a temporary exhibition. The museum is open until 17:00 on weekdays, so you have time to see a display before the doors close for the evening.

  4. 18:53

    Beer Palace

    Walk over to this popular pub for a drink. It is the perfect place to unwind after the museum closes, with a fair selection of Norwegian and foreign beers.
