One of the "Golden Circle" sights

It was shrouded in fog the day that we visited, having had wonderful sunshine and blue skies for every other day on our tour. “This is true Icelandic weather!” said our guide.

Site of Iceland's first parliament

Now it’s just a historic site.

It’s also the site of lake Þingvallavatn.

It’s also where the North American and European tectonic plates drift apart. Obviously a very geologically active site.
