The Stortinget transforms into a spectacle of lights during Oslo summer evenings, when illumination enhances the building architectural details. The yellow brick facade takes on golden tones under the spotlights, while lit windows reveal activity inside parliament. The blue sky of Norwegian blue hour creates an evocative contrast with the building warm lights. This night view of Karl Johans gate shows Parliament in its role as democratic heart of the nation.
