Per Viking Cruises, this is a "Living Room Concept"...
Really?
Yes, it's a real thing.
Not just a concept on paper.
It's so vast.
For a 48,000 GT ship - it's fantastic.
You get there, you sit there, and this environment wraps you with its soft wings of relaxation and calmness.
No, it's not a hall of the boredom, not at all.
It's a pleasant place to be.

The screen has no rest.

There are many places here to sit, to talk, to think, to bring your laptop to, to stop near artwork, or just to listen to the quiet melody of the ship at sea far away of everything...
The Atrium is in fact a multifunctional venue that can be used as a show room as well.
