OSLO

Oslo is the capital and largest city of Norway, located in the southeast of the country. It is a bit smaller than other Scandinavian capitals, but it has a lot to offer - first: a captivating location, among lakes and hills, on the picturesque Oslofjorden bay full of small islands, second: modern, inspiring architecture, interesting museums and art galleries. Norway has for years been considered one of the world's most pleasant places to live, and Oslo itself is such a Norway in a nutshell - perfect for the beginning of the adventure of exploring this beautiful Nordic country.

Oslo - what to see in the city

Many tourists' first steps, due to its proximity to the port and the city's main stations, are towards the Opera House with its curved white facade as if emerging from the water. Its rooftop is a great place for a walk and a souvenir photo of Oslo. At least one of the museums is also worth a visit, such as the Oslo National Museum with its most famous exhibit - Edward Munch's "The Scream," Frammuseet, which is a museum of Norwegian polar discoveries and expeditions, or one of Europe's largest open-air museums - the Norwegian Folk Museum.

Above the city center rises the Royal Palace, the official seat of the Norwegian monarchy. Every day at 1:30 pm, a changing of the guard takes place in front of the palace's main entrance. In addition, the medieval Akershus Fortress, once successfully defending enemies' access to the city, is worth a visit. A little further from the center, you can see the famous Holmenkollen ski jump with its Ski Museum.

Commuting to Oslo - bus, plane or own transport?

Oslo-Gardermoen Airport is located 48 kilometers north of the city center. Sandefjord-Torp Airport, on the other hand, is 120 kilometers from Oslo. Oslo is a very well-connected city. You can move around it using buses, subways or streetcars. Polish PKS Oslo will not be missed, but international and domestic bus services stop at the bus station connected to the train station in the very center of the Norwegian capital. If you are dreaming of a trip to Norway and want to visit Oslo, the bus can be an interesting option for traveling to northern Europe.

ZYWIEC

Zywiec is not just a local brewery. It's a city located in the middle of the mountains and full of attractions. That's why check out what to do in Zywiec right now before you check out the beer museum.

What to do once you reach Zywiec by bus

If you are considering an extended stay in or around Zywiec, especially during the holiday season, a trip to Lake Zywiec is a must. It is a reservoir created in 1966. In order for it to be created, several villages had to be depopulated and flooded, including Zarzecza, Tresna, and Stary Zywiec.

In the part of Tresna that was not flooded, a dam and hydroelectric power plant were erected.

Zywiec has a municipal beach, although it still lacks infrastructure. Therefore, plan an outing to the water with your own provisions.

A regatta is organized on the waters of Lake Zywiec in August, a memorial to Adam Banaszek, commander of the Bielsko Yacht Club, who died in 1992 while sailing the "Dar Bielsko".

Zywiec is located in the middle of the Beskid Mountains. The Beskid Zywiec is of course surrounded by it, but right next to it you will also find the Beskid Slaski or Beskid Maly. If you go further south, you can hit the Slovak Beskid, while west of Zywiec is the Silesian-Moravian Beskid. If you're a novice hiker, it's worth climbing Skrzyczne, the highest peak in the Silesian Beskid, which rises more than 1,200 meters above sea level. In Beskid Maly you must climb, if that's the right term, Czupel (just 933 meters above sea level). In Beskid Zywiecki, Babia Gora awaits you with 1,725 meters above sea level, making it the highest peak in the area.

There are several roads leading to the summit. One of them is the Akademiks' Pass. When deciding on this particular route, you need to be aware that it's a one-way road, and before the summit itself you will face a short climb over rocks using chains attached to the rocks. Therefore, if you manifest a fear of heights, you should consider a slightly longer, but easier route.

The city is located in the Zywiec Basin in southern Poland, next to Lake Zywiec. The seat of the Zywiec district government is located here.
