 Ecological animal farm for kids |
Skedsmogata 23 Oslo 0655 Norway +47 22 19 7071 http://www.koebb.no/ |
A horse, a goat, rabbits, ducks, chickens and pigs are among the numerous animals that live here. An ecological farm for children, Kampen Barnebondegård is a place where urban kids learn to take care of animals and grow food. After a visit here your children will definitely know where the milk comes from (not the carton). There is also an ecological herbal garden and a vegetable garden. The main attraction for many Norwegian children is Hulda the pig, known from children's television. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Idyllic old wooden houses |
Bogata and Toyengt Oslo 0654 Norway |
Located not far from the Munch Museum and the Botanical Gardens, the area of Kampen is full of idyllic, old wooden houses on narrow streets. Being there feels like walking in a children's book. In this area, you should see the church, walk around in the area in general, and maybe end up at the local cafe, Kafe Kampen. Oslo's water reservoir used to be where Kampen Park is now located, a great place for children to play in freely with sculptures and fountains, and a beautiful view of Oslo. Bus 60 will take you there from the centre. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Highest point on Tøyen |
Ola Narr and Frydens gate Oslo 0564 Norway |
Situated within walking distance from the Botanical Gardens and the Munch Museum, this is one of the many places with a panoramic view of the city. In the summer you can have a picnic in this park, let the children run freely, play with your Frisbee, take pictures or sunbathe. Ola Narr is the highest point in the Tøyen area. The name comes from a servant who was expected to dress nicely both on and off duty. So the other working-class people nicknamed him "Ola Fool" because of his style. This man got his own business after a while, and lived at Tøyen until most of his farm became the Botanical Gardens. He left to live on the west side of Oslo. Review © 2007, Wcities |
