Things to do in Reykjavik
Located in southwest Iceland, Reykjavík is the world’s most northerly capital. Its coastline area is characterized by peninsulas, coves, straits, and islands. It is the beating heart of culture and life for Icelanders, as well as a focal point for tourists, the city has a small but extremely lively center. Reykjavík's life and culture stretches out to its suburbs, especially with the summer 24-hours of light seeping through the residential neighborhoods. During winter, on the other hand, wind, darkness, and snow are the protagonists.Just like day and night, Iceland's capital is filled with contrasts: old versus new, colors versus snow-white purity, the fervor of a modern city-life versus silence of a frozen landscape. Reykjavík is all this and much more, part of which is yet to be discovered as the Sun Voyager, the dreamboat sculpture weighing anchor toward freedom and the future, symbolically communicates.
