Wonders of Iceland, which has guests
walking through an ice cave constructed
inside the building; the Hofsstadir
Historic Park Viking Longhouse, a
Viking-era longhouse that showcases,
through interactive multimedia technology,
what it was like to live in a longhouse; the
Krysuvik geothermal area, where visitors
discover an expanse of streaming volcanic
vents and boiling hot springs surrounded
by a range of multi-colored hills; and
Hallgrimskirkja Church, which can be
seen from almost anywhere in the city.
Reykjavik's many thermal pools and
spas are also a must-visit, offering a
natural therapy that's an important part of
the Icelandic culture; the Reykjavik City
Card guarantees visitors access to all the
city's thermal pools.
The Ion City Hotel, a Design Hotel,
is a great option for a city stay as this
property offers a cool Nordic design
throughout its 18 guestrooms with large
windows that offer expansive views of
the city. Here, guests will find farm-fresh
cuisine and a bar that's known to be a
hangout for locals.
And then there's Iceland's magnificent
natural surroundings. Just a short
drive from the city is the gateway to its
boundless landscapes-from the shoreline
to the mountaintop-that make Iceland
the adventure hub it is. A plethora of
activities awaits visitors, including rafting,
fishing, diving, and snorkeling in the
country's rivers; and hiking, climbing,
dog-sledding, and snowmobiling along
its mountains, volcanoes and glaciers.
There are also waves to surf and caves to
explore. And those barren highlands?
Well, hop on a jeep and go on a safari.
Iceland's geothermal energy is also
cool to experience so make sure to have
a swimsuit at hand, because you never
know when a drive or hike can end with a
dip in a natural hot spring. ◆

> If you want the opportunity to see the famed crash site of the U.S. military
DC 3 craft, take a car out of Reykjavik and head two hours east along the
southern coastal highway. On your drive, you will pass Seljalandsfoss, the
most pictured waterfalls in Iceland, as well as Skogafoss. Keep a lookout for
a parking lot on the right side of the highway with cars seemingly parked in
the middle of nowhere. That is the parking lot for the crashed plane site. Park
your car there and enjoy the 30- to 40-minute walk towards the black-sand
beach where you will find the remains of the plane sitting strikingly against the
beautiful backdrop of rolling beach on one side and hills on the other.
