Take a tour of Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo, Norway -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

For a unique and remarkable depiction of humanity, head to Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo.

Here are over 600 human figures engraved in 192 different sculptures, all of them amazing.

The masterpiece of the park is "The Monolith", a towering spire of figures ascending to eternity.

Gustav Vigeland is the man who designed the models for every sculpture in the park.

A team of sculptors worked for years to create all the granite and bronze statues.

The various sculptures portray lots of widely ranging aspects of the human condition.

There are many sculptures depicting intense emotions and feelings: love, parenthood, innocence, violence, suffering, and joy.

In all of the sculptures, there is a deeply moving and poetic statement about life.
