Norway’s cities are modestly sized, but immodestly beautiful. The quaint streets and picturesque waterfronts can easily be explored on foot or through their extensive networks of public transport.
The Norwegian capital, Oslo, is an extremely pedestrian-friendly city that offers many amazing vantage points overlooking its harbor and the surrounding mountain-scapes. Oslo offers ongoing free events and attractions every day. Explore canals and cobblestone alleys, view The Scream at the Edvard Munch Museum, be amazed by Norway’s fascinating history at Norway’s National Gallery, and then wander the Vikingskipshuset, the museum of the Viking ships Oseberg and Gokstad.
Beautiful Bergen is also a popular city for study abroad in Norway, due to its proximity to some of the country’s most dramatic fjords. Funiculars, hiking trails, and panoramic views will help international students appreciate the beauty of the city. The colorful wooden houses in the center lend a fairytale air to the city, and a touch of magic to any experience of studying abroad in Norway.
If you would rather lose yourself in rural areas, you will be poised to experience unforgettable outdoor adventures by choosing to study in Norway. You can learn a new mountain sport, like skiing, whitewater rafting, hiking, climbing, or mountain biking, or you could kayak on glacier lakes, visit the Runde bird sanctuary, an island of puffins, or hike and climb the Folgefonna Glacier. The fresh air, clean water, and abundance of space make studying abroad in Norway perfect for nature lovers.
