Holmenkollen ski jump

Holmenkollen ski jump is located in Holmenkollen, Oslo, Norway. It hosts the world's second oldest ski jump competition still in existence. It was first inaugurated in 1892 and it has been extended 18 times, last time in 1982. Today's tower extends 60 meters above ground, and 417 meters above sea level and the capacity of the stands have been increased to over 50,000 people. Every year, more than a million tourists visit the ski arena as the tower offers a panoramic view of Oslo and the Oslo fjord.
In 1923, the Holmenkollen Ski Museum, located at the base of the ski jumping tower, opened and it is still the oldest ski museum in the world. Its curator for many years following World War II to the mid-1980s was Jacob Vaage. Also at the base of the Holmenkollen ski jump, there is a virtual entertainment device which allows seeing and feeling how the ski jumpers do.
During more than a century, it has served as host to nine different Nordic skiing and biathlon world championships, including the 1952 Winter Olympics and the ski jump was featured in The Amazing Race 6 when the race arrived in Norway. In June 2005, the Holmenkollen ski jump came out on the fourth place in the Oslo's "Structure of the Century" competition. The ski jump will also serve as host to the 2011 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships after the ski jump itself would go through an overhaul.
Radisson Blu Scandinavia Hotel is a four star hotel that provides 488 great designed rooms and wonderful views of the city and fjord at prices starting from 105 euro per night.
