Ulica sa drvenim kućama iz prve polovine 19. veka duga je samo 160 metara This street with wooden houses that was built in the first half of the 19 th century is just 160 metres long
A nd don't forget, in ad- dition to all the oth- er beauties of the Nor- wegian capital, to visit three slightly different places this summer. ey all share an artistic touch, but also the fact that they are outside, and winter is far away. The Fishermen " e Fishermen" is a wall deco- ration dating back to 1970 that was made by Norwegian artist Carl Ne- sjar, based on drawings by Pablo Picasso. It can be seen on the end wall of the 'Y building' in Akersga- ta street. Nesjar and Picasso wor- ked together for 17 years, resulting in a number of sculptures and buil- ding decorations around the world. Many of the artworks they made together were created in the same way as " e Fishermen": the motifs were designed by Picasso and then sandblasted onto the concrete faça- de by Nesjar. e Fisherman mural and the mural on the wall of the Faculty of Architecture in Barcelo- na are their only works that can be seen outdoors.
Damstredet Damstredet is a cobblesto-
ne street with wooden houses that was built in the rst half of the 19 th century. e street is just 160 me- tres long. e cobbled road is li- ned on either side by adorable, brightly-coloured wooden houses. Most of them date back to the early to mid 1800s, but the very oldest parts apparently date back to the 1600s. e architecture here is very di erent from the rest of Oslo. On nice days, friendly locals enjoying the sun and co ee on their front steps will greet you as you pass by. Ekebergparken A few minutes from Oslo City Centre by tram lies the Ekebergpar- ken Sculpture Park. e park com- bines its long history with beautiful nature, stunning views and impres- sive sculptures in a unique way. e artworks spread throughout the park are authored by internationally renowned artists. Apart from the sculptures, in this park you can also nd traces of Oslo’s long and diverse history. e park is always open, ye- ar-round, and is free to visit.
