lekeland (NO)

These are pictures from a trip to a few Norwegian urbex locations with http://knudsens.wordpress.com/ this summer. His other page: http://www.knudsenfoto.com/ I’m terribly slow with updating my blog page I’m afraid. :/

This small playland/lekeland in the middle of a Norwegian city is deserted and forgotten. Quite a lot of different objects and remains of rides are still there. We were blessed with blue skies and great weather which usually makes it a bit difficult to make great photography. The place had water slide, mini-golf, strange troll-figures, car rides, gold digging etc. It opened in the 80ties and was actually once Norway’s oldest familiy park.

    Ikke all verdens av bilder denne gangen, men de er fine:)
    For dere som “må” vite hvor denne plassen er hen, så kan jeg gi et tips om at det er ganske enkelt å søke opp!

    Thanks for sharing photos, I didn’t know about this place’s demise. It thought it was a bit amusing that they had a small theme park squeezed in between a graveyard and those tall apartment buildings :-)

    I was there the other day, to take some portraits. The place has not changed since we were there.
