Nordstrand is a borough of the city of Oslo, Norway.

The borough is located in the southern part of the city and is the second most populated district of Oslo with over 40,000 inhabitants. In 2004, the Nordstrand was merged with two other boroughs, Lambertseter and Ekeberg-Bekkelaget, to form what is today known simply as Nordstrand.

The name of the borough is after a house named Nordstranden, located at Mosseveien 196.

Nordstrand is one of the wealthiest districts in Oslo, and net incomes, real estate prices, and life expectancy are among the city's highest. Solveien, Nordstrand's most famous road, has been one of Oslo's most expensive addresses since the early 20th century.[1] Nordstrand is also known for its beautiful view of the Oslofjord.

The borough consists of these neighborhoods of Oslo:
