Norway: O s l o

The sixth day, we were in Oslo -- a capital city of Norway. It was very surprised since we arrived that the city is not as beautiful as we thought. The road aren't much developped and they still had a 'toll-plaza' charging for a motor way fee. Probably, we either expected too much because of their national richness in GDP, or we havn't got a chance to see a real Fjord which is a natural beauty of Norway as it isn't a season yet. We were thinking about the next time though...

'The City Hall'

The city hall is elegantly located in the Bay area facing the sea. It is the place that they give away a Nobel "Peace" prize every year. Norway is a tax-free and nautral country (same as Swiss). Visiting the museum allowed us to understand that the country used to have a great military (especially, marine) force before the world war period (e.g. second best ship fleets from the British's force). Unfortunately, Germany attacked them during a war while they were trying hard to declare themselves as a neutral. Anyway, until now, Norway still has a number of nuclear submarine as the country is still very rich...
