Amusements-Outdoor activities
We’re very proud of the Norwegian nature. You can go to Songsvann, a big lake where you can swim in the summer and ice skate in the winter. This place is also perfect for a walk or a picnic. You can visit the parks too, and look at flowers and statues.
The wonderful and classical amusement park, Tusenfryd, is the biggest park in Norway. It’s a place made for people of all ages. You can do everything from ride carousels to ride the most extreme roller coasters. This is a place for the whole family. The youngest guests will probably enjoy the smallest roller coaster in the world with their parents and the older ones are going to love the amazing “SpinSpider”. You’ve also got an opportunity for bungee jumping! And if you find those attractions too scary, you should try “Sverrehusken”.

Some of the most famous are: The church of Christ, St.Antonios's church, St.Georgios's church, Metamorfosis's church, St.Stefanos's church, St. Paul and Peter's Church (the Metropolitan Church) and the old Metropolitan Church. In the interior of all of them there are numerous icon paintings and portable religious icons with a huge archeaological, cultural and of course religious value. Last but not least, one shouldn't fail to visit Apostle Paul's Altar, the place where Apostle Paul preached God's will and talked about Jesus Christ to the Bereans.

The Byzantine Museum was opened in 2002. It is housed in the old Markos mill adjacent to the city walls of Veroia, on the boundary of the listed quarter of Kyriotissa. The museum’s founding mission is to make known the great wealth of monuments in Veroia and the surrounding area, which date from Byzantine and Post-Byzantine times, to make the traditions of the area known and to collaborate with other Byzantine museums in Macedonia to organize periodic exhibitions. The museum’s three-storey building will house permanent exhibitions which will retain their artistic self-sufficiency.
The exhibition entitled ‘Veria, Part of the Byzantine Empire’ is on display on the first floor of the building. It is a particularly fine collection of portable icons (many of which are double-sided), wall-paintings, mosaic floors (from the courtyard of the church of Agios Patapios in Veroia), manuscripts and early printed works, pottery (ceramic items for everyday use and glazed pottery, Byzantine coins and wood-carvings).
