Oslo, the oldest of the Scandinavian Capitals, was founded by Harald Hadrade in the 11th Century and is surrounded by breathtaking mountains at the head of a 70 mile fjord. Oslo is an easy-going city where history meets modernity. The city boasts world-class museums, a lively nightlife and plenty of outdoor activities and many locals are keen hikers, skiers or sailors.
