😱🇧🇻 Scream for the Scream! Edward Munch Museum Oslo
Did you know that "the Scream 😱" is drawn by a Norwegian 🇧🇻, Edward Munch? In Oslo, there is a whole museum dedicated to the legendary artist, covering all his works in his lifespan! 😮🎨
🚄 Just a 10-minute walk southeast is needed to reach the museum from Oslo Central Station, an easy reach! 😍 In the museum you can also see other temporary exhibition about various topics - I visited one about mpdern technology, which is innovative and very interesting 🙈
🕣 If you have a little bit more time, hop on 12th floor of the museum and enjoy a meal at the sky restaurant! 🏙️ This is one of the tallest place in the city and you can have a very nice panoramic view in the city 🇧🇻 Definitely don't miss it 😋

Who said that Oslo's Citywalk is not fun?
Let's set the record straight, CityWalk is quite interesting. Here are a few tips:
1. In winter, try to go out early. Due to the high latitude, the sun's angle is low, and it might just peek out from the clouds.
2. The Munch Museum offers a great experience. There are three versions of 'The Scream', and they switch every half hour. On the top floor, you can experience painting your own Munch work in the Munch Life Exhibition (although it's not very convenient to operate).
3. If you're up for it, you can walk the entire way. The park from the Cathedral to the Royal Palace in Oslo is a nice walk, as is the area around the art museum and the opera house by the fjord. I didn't go to Akershus Fortress due to lack of stamina, but Aker Brygge with its modern architecture is also worth a visit. When tired, you can eat or drink something in a restaurant with a view of the fjord. I had reindeer thigh meat at the Pastis restaurant, which tasted fine, it's just that eating out in Norway can be quite expensive.
4. Another experience to try is the ice baths, which are quite common by the fjord. Public baths are not expensive, around a hundred RMB, and private rooms are over a thousand.
5. Transportation: walking, ruter (you need to buy a regional pass at convenience stores and other places), oslo little blue bikes (I didn't buy a day pass to ride in the winter because of the snow).
6. If you like visiting museums, you can buy the OSLO PASS, which offers free admission to several major museums. Public transportation costs are also covered, and while a single-day pass may not be cost-effective, a two or three-day pass is quite OK.

The last stop of the Norwegian vignette is Oslo
After considering our itinerary, which only allowed for a visit to one place in the Norwegian capital of Oslo, we decided on the Munch Museum, home to the famous painting 'The Scream'. You can buy tickets on the spot for entry.
1️⃣ The first floor has lockers for luggage storage and a creative products shop; it's recommended to browse the shop after experiencing the museum.
2️⃣ On the second floor, they rotate the display of three versions of 'The Scream'. We were lucky that shortly after we checked in the first one, they immediately switched to the second, and after casually strolling around, we saw the third one 30 minutes later. Additionally, most of the other paintings are quite abstract, with distinct and vivid colors, which are quite dreamy and interesting.
6️⃣ The sixth floor offers the opportunity to make your own prints, with templates, crayons, and paper provided on-site.
7️⃣ The seventh floor is Munch's house, remember to look for the hidden mouse hole!

falling for Oslo
A little weekend away to Oslo, Norway.
The temperature is making me feel cold
However the autumnal tones ooze warmth and shops and cafes have an inviting glow.

Munch Museum in Oslo
The brand new Munch museum in Oslo is well worth a visit .Situated right on the waterfront near Oslofjord, the hugely imposing and iconic building reaches 13 floors high and overlooks the city and fjord areas. Each floor offers something different, and includes something for younger visitors too .The top floor has a very classy restaurant although I didn't eat here. The main attraction, The Scream, is well worth the visit alone .There are 3 versions of the work on show, each for an hour at a time so that each piece is preserved and that the light and oxygen don't damage them over time .My only criticism is that there are some floors that are completely empty, and I wondered if these could be used to house exhibits by other artists? #oslo #norway

Don't miss the expressionist master Munch when you come to Scandinavia.
Do you still remember the screaming emoji in your collection? Its origin comes from the classic painting "The Scream" by the famous expressionist master Edvard Munch in art history. In Oslo, Norway, his birthplace, there is also a Munch Museum dedicated to him.
The Munch Museum is located in the center of Oslo, eight minutes from Oslo Central Station and three minutes from the Oslo Opera House. It overlooks the entire fjord by the sea.
The Munch Museum is mainly composed of Munch's exhibits, exhibits of artists who have won the Munch Grand Prix, a bar, and an archive room. The bar on the rooftop should have the highest view of the entire Oslo city center.
Famous Cry has four original works in total, three of which are collected here, with one displayed every hour. In addition to Cry, Munch's other works are also worth seeing, with strong strokes and emotions that are very touching, and the themes expressed have also crossed time and are still easy to empathize with.
Compared to other museums, it's relatively easy to stroll around the Munch Museum because its style doesn't vary greatly, and Munch's paintings themselves are not completely abstract, with clear themes. The overall experience is still very good.
Remember to reserve about three hours for it, and also remember to come and see it when you arrive in Oslo. Munch is worth it.

Speaking of Munch, the first thing people think of is Edward Munch. When you come to Oslo, Norway, you must come to the Munch Museum to appreciate Munch's "Scream", which is the most classic representative of Munch's life. The museum collects a large amount of precious materials such as paintings, drawings, letters, notes, photos, etc. from the master artist Edward Munch, so that you can fully understand Munch's life.
Edward Munch is a pioneer of Norwegian expressionist painters, printmakers, and modern expressionist paintings. In order to commemorate Munch, there is the Munch Museum in Oslo. Since its opening, it has exhibited 60 selected works by Edward Munch, including "Scream" and the world's largest collection of Edward Munch Art.
The museum is not big. It will be enough to appreciate it for more than an hour. The bag needs to be registered, and then the security check can be taken inside, but it cannot be recorded. The museum houses the works of Edward Munch, and according to his will, the work is donated to Oslo. In addition to all the masterpieces of Munch, there are paintings, letters, and works of his childhood. In addition to other donations, the museum has a collection of 1,100 paintings and 18,000 prints, and often holds concerts.
