Walking loops in Sentrum, Oslo
Karl Johans gate pulls you from the train station to the Royal Palace in a straight line, past the Parliament building and the university, which is a very Norwegian approach to urban planning — efficient, democratic, slightly earnest. The Opera House's white marble roof slopes into the Oslofjord, and you're encouraged to walk on it, which feels transgressive until you see everyone else doing the same. The fjord water is cleaner than you expect. In June, the light never fully leaves.
