Description
This panoramic photograph of Oslo was taken by James Blakeway. It features the downtown area of Oslo as seen looking across Oslo Fjord. In the distant left is Holmenkollen Ski Jump, the national arena for skiing and an observatory with a fantastic view of Oslo. Slightly right of center on the harbor is Akershus Fortress and Castle. Dating from 1299, this medieval castle and Royal Residence was developed into a fortress in 1592. Centered in the panorama with its large clock is Oslo City Hall. Oslo started in the 8th century as a settlement at the top of the Oslo Fjord that was developed by the Vikings.
