Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, is a gateway to some of the most stunning natural landscapes in the world.
This summer, take a dip in the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa with mineral-rich waters. Explore the Golden Circle, a popular tourist route that includes Thingvellir National Park, the Geysir geothermal area, and the Gullfoss waterfall. For a unique adventure, embark on a whale-watching tour from the city’s harbor.
In polar and other cold regions there are ice, snow and water formations that are unusual, unique, and some of them so beautiful they take your breath away. Most of these wonders of nature can be visited only by scientists and rare adventurers who are ready for significant physical and financial exertions. Because of their volatility and locations, these formations can be seen only at certain periods of the year.
