Bygdøy

We are now passing Bygdøy to the left, here you can find world-class cultural heritage, such as Viking ships and other Viking treasures, the iconic exploration boats Fram and Kon Tiki, as well as Norwegian houses from a whole millennium. Norwegians have always had a passion for travel and discovery with a determination to be the first. The Vikings voyaged around the world and were the first to discover America. Later the Norwegian flag was planted both at the North and South poles, but unfortunately, they did not make it to the moon first. Alongside the idyllic beaches you can also find Bygdøy royal farm. The monarchy has always stood strong in Norway and the motto of the Norwegian Kings has become “Alt for Norge” – ‘’everything for Norway”. Popular, warm, and empathetic in the good times and a man of action in the bad times are descriptions of the King that contribute to the fact that the Norwegian people not only support the King but also look up to and admire him. Should you be lucky enough to meet the King, you should address him as “Your Majesty”.
