You'll find everything from 'The Scream' to modern design in this massive building by the harbor. The Light Hall at the top is worth the visit alone. It's so big that you can wander around at your own pace without feeling rushed.
Why it works
The museum is so huge that you'll always find a bench if you need a little break from talking.
What to order
Don't try to see everything. Pick two rooms and actually take your time there.
Best time to go
Weekday mornings if you want some peace and quiet.
What it costs
