Vigelandsparken in Oslo! Our favourite place to visit when we are here! By ARNE & CARLOS

[@judyperodeau4945]

You guys are so generous to take the time to show us such a beautiful place and sculptures… many thanks 😃👏🏼🥰🧶

[@tanyaschipp3760]

The older women in the sculpture evoke strong emotions in my heart. Thank you for sharing we will definitely visit this park in our travels.

[@miriamcromwell7260]

It is beautiful i especially liked knowing he used his students to create the sculptures. What a magnificent way to teach

[@garmo98]

Frogner is absolutely the best! Every grouping of sculptures elicits such emotion. The nudity keeps you focused on the expression rather than any detail of clothing. Simply genious.

[@dingtonia]

Thank you, Arne and Carlos. Sculpture is my absolute favourite art form. This is an extraordinary park. Thank you for showing me.

[@catherinemontrose2102]

I had no idea there was such a place in Oslo. More reasons to visit Norway! The park is amazing, and I particularly like the sculptures of people intertwined with trees.

[@kregister7921]

OH. MY. GOODNESS. What an amazing tour you’ve taken us on. The sculptures are stunning and I would love to see them in person one day. Thank you for this fabulous episode!!!

[@debbieretzlaff2912]

We loved our time at this amazing sculptural park. Thanks for the walk down memory lane! ❤

[@lisajahn6839]

Magnificent park!!! I love the sculptures and the iron work gate is outstanding and gorgeous!!! One day would not be enough to enjoy this all! Thank you all very much for sharing this with us! Be well, stay safe all. 🥰💞👍💜😊

[@carolfaber585]

Thank you for this tour of the park. When we were th ere last February, it was even colder and ice covered! But still lovely. I liked the granite statues around the fountain the best, especially the mother embracing her little children, and the old men behind your favorite old women. Thanks again for taking us on this tour which brought back wonderful memories. Someday you have to come to Michigan and visit Grand Rapids where we have an amazing botanical garden/sculpture park created by Frederik Meijer and his wife, Lena, known locally as Meijer Gardens. You would love it!

[@tdot4509]

I was there in May 1974 as a 17 year old student during a month long school trip through Scandinavia. Unfortunately, I was not sophisticated enough to fully appreciate it. However, I remember some of the pieces you showed us and knew enough that they did touch my heart with warmth. On my bucket list to return and savour the beauty more fully. Thank you for sharing this treasure.

[@carlettamlodzik5323]

What an eyeful for this Minnesota girl that had hardly left the farm back in the 70s. Been back there 2 more times and it never does get old! 👍 Thanks for taking me there at a different time of year.

[@yakimotosan]

Thank you for taking us to the park! It is absolutely magnificent! 😍😍😍

[@santagreen7360]

Thanks for this clip, and sharing this amazing place with us. The artist had incredible vision, and his skill entertains so many people ! Huge respect to him ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@juliefondurulia679]

What a beautiful park for every mood, season, and season of life. I can imagine seeing something different every visit with different light, weather, how you're feeling and so on. Thank you for sharing it!

[@chrishutson7061]

What a wonderful park. I found the statues quite moving especially the two ladies at the end. We have recently lost a family member at the age of 94 what a life she led. Not travelling much until in her 70s. The statues by the waterfall were lovely. The trees reminded me of art nouveau patterns. Art Nouveau and Art deco are my favourite architecture and designs.

[@bluelupin7955]

Wow-- 215 human forms....what a celebration! ✨️Thanks for taking us here and showing us a part of your beautiful country 🩵

[@karenfeek1706]

It is the most beautiful park I’ve ever been to twice. You are so lucky to have it In Oslo to view anytime

[@sophiabee8924]

The gates are wonderful. They're like stranded colourwork motifs. Thank you for braving the cold!

[@maizoon4327]

What a beautiful park. I do like the lady playing with her hair, it looks very art decco which just happens to be one of my favourite periods. Thank you for showing us this beautiful place. ❤

[@MarcelasPurse]

We went there, I loved the park and lov 11:20 ed the sculptures, I think they reflect life. 😊 Thank you.

[@jokewijngaarden5588]

We have been twice in the park. It is beautifull!

[@kcfield601]

What a beautiful park. The sculptures are amazing. Such an honour Oslo has for a very fine artist. It's just outstanding. Thank you so much for taking us on this adventure. Your time and energy are very much appreciated. I shared the video with my daughter who is a fine artist in her own right. I hope that was okay. Thanks again.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Our pleasure! And feel free to share - the more, the merrier!

[@lisajansson4157]

I was there in 1983, so fun to see the park again. Thanks for another fascinating show.

[@barbarakb8847]

Thoroughly enjoyed visiting this gorgeous park when I went on the knitting cruise!. My favorite were the babies by the monolith-several families were there with THEIR babies, giving them an early introduction to art!

[@elizabethshultz33]

My favorite place in Oslo. Love the temper tantrum child. The sculptures are wonderful..

[@annmcg9781]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. As an elderly woman, I especially enjoyed the elderly women sculpture. Their facial expressions were amazing. Thank you for sharing this beautiful park with us. Fingers crossed I will be able to see it in person one day (after 9pm!) Hugs to you both!

[@leahmurphy3739]

Blown away by those incredible sculptures! Thank you for sharing!

[@valeriea.gladstone6440]

one of my favorite sculpture parks ever!

[@victorianicolls912]

Quite emotional... the fabric of life! Thankyou

[@candygrubisic]

VERY cool place. Even the main gate is gorgeous. Great tip. I love all the movement created in so many of the sculptures and how they nearly "float" from their bases/platforms. You get a sense of family, lightheartedness and joy from a lot of the sculptures as well. It did look quite chilly.

[@renamessenger6397]

Thank You for taking us along as you travel in your country. Always a great treat

[@loridunivon5219]

I am from the US. I've been there and it is a very beautiful park. I plan on taking my Husband there (his first time) because I love Norway SO much. It is a very beautiful country that my ancestors came from. I want to go back!!

[@debbiehanchett659]

Thank you for sharing the tour of your favorite place in Oslo. The statues are interesting and beautiful!

[@momofwilliam]

What an amazing place! Such variety of young and old, all body types that show the beauty of human connection. Thank you for sharing!

[@debtemple7141]

Thank you for taking us on a tour of this beautiful place.

[@dragonknitter]

The music you played on the video when you were visiting the fountain made me think of a children's show called mr Rogers' neighborhood, when he would visit beautiful places. A wonderful memory. Thank you for evoking it

[@lindagiering4584]

I usually watch your podcasts on KZbin, on my TV. So, I can reply, unless I get on my phone. I thoroughly enjoyed you sharing this adventure through this park. This park has some most unique figures. My favorite you the people sculpted in with the trees. I found these sculpture most intriguing, bc there was more dimension. It was so kind of the two of you to share this magnificent park. Just love to go on adventures with you.

[@hellemortensen8930]

One of my absolute favorites in Oslo... that and the Fram Museum.

[@susanabravo7613]

I’ve been there last summer. It is amazing!

[@paigemcmasters6520]

So much emotion in the statues

[@lynnniemi3053]

thank you, I have never heard of this place, it is fascinating! So much work to make so many statues! I can imagine how magical it must be on a summer night

[@isabellejamet5998]

Thank you so much!! You are so generous with your thoughts and inspiration!

[@alison2813]

My husband and I visited this park in June when we were on holiday. It is wonderful. I loved the sculptures

[@marylynnlucas3918]

So peaceful.. so real. Love this journey you took us on. Thank you for sharing such wonderful art.

[@toniprutch8956]

I was there with Githa's tour group in May of 2022 when I went on the coastal express knitting cruise with you. That park and those statues is very impressive. I'm an art lover so I enjoyed it very much. Love you both!❤

[@teodorateodosia7617]

🍀El parque en verano estará muy bonito,per ahora da escalofríos verlo.

[@bonitoclub]

We loved visiting Vigelandsparken after our knitting cruise in 2019, and thank you Carlos for the tip about visiting in the evening after the crowds have left, it was lovely! The next day we also visited the Vigeland Museum which is a short walk from the park.

[@marygrouse8004]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful park.

[@jackiewheaton4199]

I've never heard of this park or the sculptor. Amazing talent. I love that. If I go to Norway, ever, I'm going there! Thanks for showing us.

[@kristinsykes-david6768]

Thank you for the tour of the sculpture park. It brought back lovely memories of our visit to the park in early September. I have so many photos of the fabulous sculptures!

[@michelemurnane2834]

I love the little kids and the tall pillar of bodies.

[@mirabell9362]

Thank you so much for showing us around this fascinating park!

[@kathrynnordstrom5604]

I visited this sculpture park 50 years ago - it has not left my thoughts & I am so excited to view it again! I loved it so much then, I sculpt in clay these days - I would love to visit from Australia again. Thank you for enriching my memory of artwork that possibly began my quite recent encounter with clay !

[@ARNECARLOS]

Wow

[@58calangel]

I’m just in awe that a place like this exists. So beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us. ❤

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@susanmacdonald4288]

I had never heard of this marvelous park...thank you so much for sharing it with us! The sculptures are spectacular. And thank you for the tip about going when the local residents go. This planted a little seed of "I think that I'd like to visit Norway".

[@rodeanphilip7780]

Thanks so much for the tour of the Park!!! I SO love the sculptures!

[@juliemeanor6531]

Thank you , what a lovely park.

[@elainecoull7237]

Thank you for showing us such an amazing park. Am I the only one to see an appliquéd quilt in those stunning gates? Stay safe.

[@marcielynn3010]

these sculptures are life, at all ages! Thx for sharing. walked thru the park in 1982. so good to revisit with you two...❤

[@marynimocks6791]

Humbling beauty. Thank you so much!

[@Calhoungal]

What a lovely park! It must be magical in person. And what a magnificent gate! The intricate design would be a pleasure to duplicate in embroidery.

[@DeviousKnitter70]

I was at this park in 1971, and it was a beautiful. The figures were amazing! The people in Norway were wonderful and friendly. Where ever we were people would stop us and asked where we were were from, and talk to us. My father was fluent in Swedish, and really enjoyed visiting. We were there in July, and went to Midsommar in Oslo, Norway too. We have family in Sweden and Norway, and they kept us busy!! My brother and I enjoy your channel! We love yarn too!

[@Knitterly]

This place was one of my favourite experiences when I came on the Coastal Express trip in Oct 2022. It was an enchanting and exhilarating place!

[@robinjohanson4916]

One of my favorite places in Oslo! Thanks for the trip through memory lane! Always love to see what you guys have in store for us each week! Love your channel!

[@elaineenstone6834]

It is an amazing park. It was about 60 years ago when I visited with my parents when we were on a summer holiday staying in a rural area near Honefoss. 🇬🇧

[@Tichaba124]

Fantastic! Oh thank you!!! We are so lucky to have you guys!!!😊. From US.

[@davidhensley76]

This episode was a special treat. I like it.

[@deborahalchin3360]

It’s a beautiful park and the sculptures are stunning.

[@damienk5011]

Hiya Arne and Carlos 😊, thankyou for this -what marvellous entrance gates,and the vista to the " Cleopatras needle"/ monolith! Did like the angry little baby boy having his temper tantrum!However they all are marvellous- like instant photos- with such freedom of movement-& the ones in the trees😊every aspect of the human development and emotions. Keep up showing all the aspects of your surrounds, be well and prosperous. J.I.M.K Mrs. Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺 ♥ 😊

[@duqueartist3026]

Thank you for letting us travel with you and see this beautiful amazing park❤

[@MartaBotturi]

My husband and me have been there a long time ago during our honeymoon. We have visited all of Norway from Oslo to the North Cape. Very very nice places.

[@yolandaperkins6291]

So many beautiful sculptures, and I also thought the patterns on the walkway were pretty too! Thanks for the tour!

[@marie-reinecoffin3032]

What a beautiful park! I absolutely enjoyed seeing it again! I visited it years ago and love sculpture. Believe it or not my favorite one is the girl dancing holding her hair in the air. I still have the post card here with me. It was a very nice surprise to view your video. Fantastic. Thank you. You guys are great!

[@karentoynton8948]

The park does look very pretty, I would imagine it would be lovely for a summers evening walk. The statues/ sculptures are definitely different , but good also. I was thinking like you Carlos the sculptures do show the story of life.

[@robinrehrer6739]

We loved this park and will visit each time we are in Oslo...

[@ceciliacondal958]

I went when I.visited Oslo, it is fantastic! Some.sculptures are really wonderful!

[@marilyn9155]

Love it !! Sculptures are spectacular !! Right ! It’s life and art- why should we ‘hide’ ?! What beauty thank you so much for taking us along ! Never have seen anything like this! Right - circle of life -at all stages. Oh how I wish I could visit the park as well as all Oslo😔 ❤ Marilyn xx

[@1checkers]

The sculptures are beautiful ❤

[@genevievegiella9066]

WOW BEAUTIFUL ❤ SOME OF THE SCULPTURES LOOK LIKE ABSTRACT DANCING…..THANK YOU 🙏 😊

[@kristind.8379]

I am spending a cold afternoon by the fireplace knitting (your chain-link scarf). You are such fabulous ambassadors for Norway! I almost feel like I have been there. Thank you ❤

[@karenkoziol5353]

Thank you for adding a few moments of beauty to my day

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

Wonderful, fascinating, thanks for that great visit. I'd spend hours in this park.

[@MD-gw9kj]

Great share here with the park. However I love that Carlos direct us to the nearby yarn shop where we can get our “yarn fix”. I had to laugh, you guys clearly know your followers; a walk in the park is great so long as it ends with a yarn project on your lap afterwards!

[@ARNECARLOS]

😂😂

[@catnapper3923]

I’m glad you mentioned the time of year because I was going to ask. This was WONDERFUL. It is one of my all-time favorite episodes. thanks.

[@GSusie]

Remarkable visit to a unique and beautiful place. Please, can you take us back on a June or July evening to enjoy the park as you describe? Thank you for inviting us. I enjoyed the visit.

[@pamelamckenzie2685]

How lovely the sculptures are and a beautiful park bless you both for showing us. We got real windy weather in England.

[@annafaboartado]

I visit this park in past in a sunny day. Wonderful! Beautiful!

[@Patriciahill1]

Thank you guys for the culture, such amazing sculptures! Hope to see them one day in person.

[@darcicole5530]

Fabulous park. Thank you for sharing.

[@chantald9661]

The gate doors are beautiful!

[@cathgllt4255]

A beautiful place to visit I remember I enjoyed it when I visit Oslo many years ago

[@maggieboazman2245]

Oh wow, what an amazing park…..thank you for showing it to us 😊

[@miabagley2202]

Wonderful video! We had a chance to visit the park during our trip several years ago. I love the sculptures with the figures under the trees. I remember one with the zodiac symbols, and a metal backdrop/gate like structure with vines that I loved. Thanks for giving us a glimpse.

[@jenniferjohnson9335]

What a fascinating place! Love the park and the sculptures. Thank you for sharing that with us--would love to see in person!

[@tl4214]

Wow!! How generous to share this beautiful park and so many sculptures!

[@JaneDawsonWiley]

I haven't stopped thinking about the Vigeland sculptures since I saw this video this morning. I am fascinated. I can't thank you enough for sharing this video. I hope I get the opportunity to visit them in person and not just because you mentioned the yarn store near by.

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome Claire!

[@messokarenk]

Thanks so much for the tour. Myself, my daughter and granddaughter are visiting Oslo at the end of May. We will certainly visit this amazing park. Oh, and thanks for the directions to the nearest yarn shop!!

[@pipmurray1419]

Really love this thank you. It’s something I would never see because I can’t see myself ever getting there and never knew this existed and it was beautiful thank you.

[@NicolaWood-gq1rn]

What a wonderful park. I had no idea it existed. Thank you so much for showing it. It’s added to my list of places I want to visit now.
