The speed at which the weather in Fargo went from (badly needed) rain to sunshine really surprised me. So much so that I got halfway into my walk and had to shed a layer. But, that's what layers are for. In this walk we head south from Downtown Fargo to see some murals in allies, the other old train depot, setup in island park for an arts festival, a skate park, a levee, cross the Red River on a footbridge, and follow a pedestrian/bike path on the Minnesota side to the Hjemkomst Center with it's stave church and working viking longboat that has sailed to Norway. It's a great exploration of Fargo and a bit of Moorhead. Hope you enjoy it -H

Hjemkomst Center
The Heritage Hjemkomst Interpretive Center, commonly known as the Hjemkomst Center, is a museum in Moorhead, Minnesota. Hjemkomst Center first opened in 1985 and serves as a home to Hjemkomst Viking Ship, Hopperstad Stave Church replica, quarterly museum exhibits, and county archives. In 2009, the Clay County Historical Society (which was founded in 1932) and the Heritage Hjemkomst Interpretive Center merged to form the Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County.
The Hopperstad Stave Church Replica is a replica of a Norwegian stave church located on the grounds of the Hjemkomst Center. The church was built in 1998 by Guy Paulson and was constructed of cedar, redwood, and pine. It is a full-scale replica of the 12th Century Hopperstad Stave Church in Vik, Norway. The church serves as a reminder of the Scandinavian heritage in the Red River Valley.

This walk was really fun, because our house is just two blocks from Island Park, and I regularly walk all around there. I enjoyed your take on the surrounding neighborhoods and the downtown area. I've been up to the Stave Church to walk around and to photograph it, but I've never taken the tour; after seeing the church interior from your video, I'll definitely be booking my own visit! Thanks, Henry.

Thanks for this interstate walk! Fargo seems very pleasant and feels like a city reinventing itself. I like when you point out bits of architecture like ironwork on a door, or the stonework pylon over the river. Sometimes we need other people to notice things for us, and you do that well. Please don't be discouraged by people asking you not to be political. You're never insulting or vitriolic and I'd say your talking about being a good citizen rather than politics most of the time . If people want to politicize what it means to be a good citizen, that's on them. A final thought, the sunlight beaming into the church at the end of the walk was sublime. Looked like a painting. Take care.

I've lived in Fargo for the last 16 years or so and while I have been downtown quite a bit I never quite wandered around. Some good restaurants downtown though. Also you probably figured it out but that first place you thought was the courthouse was the central post office.

I live in Moorhead, Minnesota, a block from where you walked by the Hjemkomst Center and the Norwegian church. I noticed that you haven't done any videos in the other parts of Minnesota yet. I highly recommend visiting the rest of our beautiful state! The North Shore of Lake Superior is breathtaking and has so many amazing hiking opportunities with waterfalls, etc. Duluth, Minnesota would be a perfect city to do a walking tour along the Lake Walk and Canal Park area. Also, Minneapolis and St Paul are wonderful cities. So many great places to see. Let me know if you have any questions on where to visit :)

Who knew that there would be a replica of a medieval Norwegian stave church in Fargo? It looks like an exact replica of the Urnes Stave church which I visited a few years ago. The wood was treated with tar which gives these churches a very distinct smell.
@CityWalks
@CityWalks 2 года назад
THey mentioned the tar and said it was against code in Moorehead. From the website: The Moorhead Stave Church is a full-scale replica of the Hopperstad Stave Church located in Vik, Norway. Such a cool place and I envy you that you saw an original in Norway. I'd love to do that some day. Thanks. _H

At 28:35 Beautiful ❤️. Does raising of the flag in front of the house signify something about the residents? Or just for patriotic reason? Coz it doesn't show very often to some other residential houses.
@CityWalks
@CityWalks 2 года назад
Hmm. This may get me in trouble but I've been thinking about it quite a bit lately. IMO the US flag has been fetishized as of late and has been co-opted as a sign of group identity by many on the right to the point that to many more it has become a sign of exclusion and anger which is the opposite of what it has meant in the past. I fly one on my house along with an Earth flag because I believe its symbolism should not be ceded to one group that represents things I very much oppose. It should, IMO, symbolize patriotism and love of our country, of unity and community and freedom (of ideas, expression, and all those things defined in the constitution). It should remind us that even though we disagree on many things, Americans are one country with common core beliefs. I'm fairly progressive, and even though I find a fair amount to criticize about my country and government, I still love it and wouldn't choose to live anywhere else. Longwinded answer with plenty of nuance but there you go. Great question and thanks for your support. -H
@dannyhuelva4897
@dannyhuelva4897 2 года назад
@@CityWalks Well good to know that from you. I'm kind of a progressive too. That's also why I like Teddy Roosevelt. In fact, I'm curious about looking for things that can narrow the gap of economic inequality in America without giving up on capitalism. Of course, this is not a good venue to talk about it. Thanks for sharing your sentiments anyway.
