The Kon-Tiki Museet has what's left of Kon Tiki, the ship that Thor Heyerdahl used to prove his theory that south americans could have reached Polynesia. He constructed the boat out of materials that would have been available at the time, mostly balsa wood.There is some controversy about what he proved in his successful transit, though, since he started his journey with a 50 mile tow out of the South Pacific gyre, which would have taken him north instead of west. The museum didn't say much about that.

    Opposite the Polar Ship Museum, opposite the Maritime Museum, the three museums form a triangle. The Kontiki Museum, located on the Bieg peninsula in Oslo, exhibits ships and objects used in the famous Kontiki expedition led by the famous Norwegian explorer Tol Heldar, and a library containing 8,000 books. The museum building was designed by architects F. S. Platou and Otto TorgersenIt and opened to the public in 1957 and expanded in 1978. The museum is used by separate areas to show short-term adventures, with cave exploration and underwater exhibitions to visit 10 meters long whale sharks. Bus: 30

    It's a small museum that I find interesting, but it may not be worth it if I go there. But we bought Osloka, and it was free anyway. This man is really brave. There are two bamboo rafts that he traveled across the Pacific Ocean. There are also statues that he brought back from Easter Island.
