Went for a walk on my last day in Iceland to take some pictures at sunrise. This is a lovely sculpture to photograph. Worth a little walk to.
You mustn't miss this delightful sculpture if you are in Reykjavik. I have visited 5 times at different times of year, in different seasons, lights and moods. Lovely to see at all times.
Definitely worth a look. It was a couple of minutes down the road from the hostel I was staying at so I visited it nearly every day during my visit. I didn't wake up early enough to see what it would've looked like next to a sunrise, though. I can imagine it's beautiful.
After seeing the pictures I knew I had to visit here when I came. Since there's snow on the ground you have to be careful since the ground around the sculpture is made of marble. So we got to work on our moon walking skills while we were at it ;)
Loved the Viking Boat (as I called it!!) It was snowing really heavily when we visited and was very, very slippy on the surface of the floor directly by the sculpture. A must for your photo album!!
Walked along the front from our hotel in the icy conditions ans found this sculpture along the way, very nice piece, but be warned if the Chinese are about you will have to wait ages to take a photo. Lovely as the sun catches it .
be careful in the snow - its on shiny marble and you slip very easily. it is beautiful and ethereal in the snow
If your walking route around Reykjavic does not take you past the Sun Voyager, make a deliberate effort to walk out to see it. It is great location for photos in rain and shine, and will likely not have too many passersby at one time, allowing you have photos of it or yourself without anyone else in the frame. It is freestanding structure and you may touch it. There is no fee and there are no adjacent items of interest. As a work of art, it is a special piece in a special place. It is absolutely worth your time to get to it!
Very pretty sculpture of Viking kingship. That is all. You look at view and that's it. View over bay is stunning
Beautifully ethereal see it in day and at nightCatches the feeling of the viking forbears. Sits on the coastal walkway,which can be quite blustery but not to be missed
