Sun Voyager

Iceland Sun Voyager, this building is a particularly famous building in Iceland, everyone may feel more abstract, please do a good job of strategy when you go, or ask the history of the local people is still more interesting, and it is also a square that the locals love very much.

This is a sculpture on the shores of Reykjavik, Iceland's capital, which is said to represent the pirate ship and commemorate the pioneering spirit of Iceland's ancestors. The design of the ship sculpture is indeed unique, abstract, but not difficult to understand.

The Sun Voyager is a very famous statue in Iceland, and it is also a landmark not far from the hotel we stayed in. It is very close to the surrounding scenery, and it is also very close to the concert hall. You can visit it together.

Good domineering name, facing the sea, if you don't want to go far to chase the aurora, you can consider waiting here behind the night. Online travel notes write that this sculpture is like a big bug, and it symbolizes the Viking spirit. Please take a look at the introduction on the stone pillar next to it. It is obviously a symbol of the spirit of the ancient Vikings sailing to sea to pursue their dreams and go forward.

The short stay in Olesund ended early in the morning, taking an early flight to Oslo, and then transferring to Icelandair to Reykjamok at 2 pm. Due to the time difference, it was already more than 6 pm, and there was a rain outside the airport. After getting off the plane, I went to the airport lobby to buy a round-trip ticket for the airport express (Airport Express). The airport is 50 kilometers from the city center and about 45 minutes by one-way car. Today, due to the rain, I occasionally saw traffic jams on the road. It took an hour to live in the city - "Elmo Plaza Hotel". Iceland is a strange and distant country for the Chinese. The first concept to mention it is a scene of cold and snowy weather. I stayed in Reykjamok, the capital of Iceland, for four nights and five days, and it was the longest place in the whole trip to Northern Europe. The memories I left were extremely deep, surrounded by the sea, vast grassland, endless land, dreamy sky, Ice and fire, glacier snow, waterfalls, black sand beaches, basalt stone, fishing villages and towns, etc., all of them are buckling the heartstrings and dreaming. "Sun Voyager" - this is the work created by Icelandic sculptor Alnason based on the skeleton of the Viking pirate ship that year, very artistic. Especially in the changing colors of the sky this morning, people think about it. A few hundred years ago, the Vikings came here after all their hardships, constantly fighting with the bad weather and natural environment, and surviving tenaciously, only to have today's prosperous Iceland.

A nice statute by the bay of Reykjavik. More impressive on the photos, but still iconic and must see. The walk by the harbor and the bay behind Harpa is super, and there are boards with historical info about Iceland. Bundle it all on a nice weather day.

This thing is a local landmark. It is said to be built in the shape of a Viking pirate ship, using fish bones. When I went there in the morning, I passed by and took two pictures in the car, but it was a bit shaking and deleted. When I came back in the afternoon, I didn’t take the car. I walked back. I wanted to take two more shots. I could take two more shots along the way. The result was that the walk time was greatly exceeded the estimated time. The result was that the road behind was almost rushed back to the pier at the speed of 800 meters in the sports test. I almost couldn’t catch up with the cruise. What was annoying was that I took that photo along the way, but I still didn't take a decent sun navigator. Because I was walking across the road, not a coastal trail, and I didn't even have a sidewalk until I walked, only a highway-like lane.
