Bjørvika is a neighborhood in the Sentrum borough of Oslo, Norway. The area is an inlet in the inner Oslofjord, situated between Gamlebyen and Akersness. It serves as an outlet for the river Akerselva. Since the 2000s, it has been undergoing urban redevelopment, being transformed from a container port. The neighborhood will be Oslo's cultural "center." The National Opera is currently at Bjørvika, and the Munch/Stenersen museum might be built here, replacing the Munch Museum. A number of new roads are under construction and the Bjørvika Tunnel opens in May 2010.
