Iceland

5 Venues

Being a relatively young island, only 15-18 million years old(!), Iceland’s geological activity is one-of-a-kind. The abundance of volcanoes, geysers and natural hot springs provide enough geothermal energy to heat approximately 85% of Iceland’s population. When traveling to Iceland, one not only experiences the breathtaking landscapes but also the unique culture of Icelanders, known for their strong family ties, their bond with nature, their fascination with music and the art of storytelling.
