Oslo

“Oslo”, by Rick Steves' Europe, is best treated as a travel film for trip-planning rather than a substitute for an itinerary. Oslo’s useful lesson is scale: architecture, landmark density and a walkable centre let visitors connect cultural stops without building the day around transfers. The city also rewards a planner who leaves room for art and food, two cues that shape how it is read on the ground. Use the film as a first pass, then map one compact cultural walk and one meal-led pause; that keeps the Norwegian capital legible without reducing it to a checklist.
