Reykjavik is located on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and is the most northerly capital in the world. With the majestic Mount Esja and volcanoes as its backdrop, Reykjavik makes for an intriguing and beguiling destination.
Here, summers are bathed in 22 hours of daylight, and winters are filled with blizzards and covered by never-ending darkness. The citizens' indomitable spirit and creativity fill the streets of Reykjavik despite its seemingly extreme conditions. Tourists will also find all the trappings of a 21st-century European city such as world-class restaurants, museums, galleries, and cafes.
In fact, Reykjavik has become famous for its thriving music scene as well as its Friday-night club and bar scenes. During the day, the city's visitors can enjoy the countless geothermal baths and savour trips to Reykjavik's panoramic hinterland. As the city further develops its cultural identity, the number of festivals that can be enjoyed by guests are multiplying.
