The Vigeland Park

12 July 2011 By: Marlene7 Comments

Would you agree that the best place to be regardless of seasons is the park? We may or can not be in there everyday but when we need to be with ourselves or with friends in solitude, the park is absolutely a good choice. When hubby and I are travelling, we often find a park to sit and admire the bounty of nature; apart from seeing imminent structures in the city. Some parks may also have distinct structures and sculptures and it might be a disappointment to miss them in your travel. Like when you’re in Oslo you should not miss the Vigeland Park, the world’s largest sculpture park.

It has been quite a while since we were in this park. It’s quite peculiar in that it has a lot of sculptures inside, not only in bronze but also in granite and wrought iron. I especially admired the Monolith Plateau, which is on the highest point of the park. I posted a photo of it in my first year of blogging and I recently changed the small photo to a bigger one.

It was said that it took 10 years to complete this park. The 850 meter long axis consists the main gate, the bridge with the children’s playground, the fountain, the Monolith Plateau and the Wheel of Life.
