Do you know that trolls are real? Yes they are and if you don’t believe me, you can go and visit the woods in Belgium to see them with your own eyes. They may not be what you’ve expected – after all, they’re made out of wood!
Thomas Dambo is the person who is responsible for placing huge troll statues across Belgium in order to create a fairytale-like feeling in the forests. He wanted to create something that will take away the attention from mobile phones and computers and make people go out in nature and explore more! This is why he hides the wooden trolls in different areas of Belgian forests. Every troll is made out of recycled material, so no trees were harmed during the process of creating them!
Thomas is also a fan of traditional tales that include stories with fairies and trolls roaming the woods. That is one of the reasons why his work is named “The 7 Trolls And The Magic Tower.” His statues shows trolls in different scenarios, but no matter their role, they’re all really carefully made and with the right proportions. If Belgium is on your travel list, make sure to look for the trolls!
