Lonely Planet review for Det Kongelige Slott

King Harald V sleeps in Det Kongelige Slott, the royal palace, peering from a hill over the Karl Johans axis. Guided tours of 15 rooms are available in English, once daily at 14:00 (late June to mid-August). Tickets are difficult to obtain - ask the tourist office for details. The rest of the grounds comprise Slottsparken, an inviting public park that's free to enter. If you happen to be around at 13:30, watch the changing of the guard.

    Really nice view!

    sjaf_xo recommends this,

    You get an amazing view down Karl Johan's Gate!

    Also watch the changing of the guards at 13:30 daily! They will also allow you to take photos of them and they are very nice!

    Changing of the guards

    cjboarder1 recommends this,

    I definitely reccommend watching the changing of the guards, daily at 13.30. The guards on duty are also very friendly and more than happy to talk and have photos taken!
