A brightly colored, cheerful and windy view of the Oslofjord and the Oslo skyline. From the vantage point of this windswept sightseer one can see the City Hall in the distance as well as Akershus Fortress and Castle. The poster also exists in French and English, reading "Oslo / The Capital of Norway," but as this version is in Norwegian, the text promotes Oslo as the "Summer City."
