Christian Ringens provided the sculptures for this amazing park. There are so many extra ordinary installations by Jenny Holzer, Marian Abramovice, James Turell and 31 more artists. My favourite is an insgallation that blows mist into the forest which makes you feel like part of a fairy tale by Elmgreen and Dragset.
You should plan to spend at least two hour in the park if you want to enjoy it. There is also a coffee shop near by if you need a break.
The entrance is free but you need to book a tour to see James Turell's Skyspace and Ganzfeld.
