On Norway's sunny southern tip, facing the waters of the Skagerrak at the entrance to the Baltic, Kristiansand is a quaint little 17th century town of wide streets, a lively fishing harbour and market, inviting shops and restaurants - and the picturesque charm of the Kvadraturen quarter with its traditional wooden houses. Visit the open-air Vest Agder Country Museum, where you may roam among the 40 buildings that replicate an ancient Kristiansand village or walk through Ravnedalen Scenic Park, a beautiful park overflowing with flowers and rare trees.
