Iceland

Iceland another stunning destination that I dream to visit to. This is a place that is so amazing with the incredible amount & diversity of attractions, with jaw- dropping natural phenomena.  Iceland is the least densely populated country in Europe, with a pure, unpolluted and truly magical landscape where nature reigns supreme.

Gullfoss


The powerful, two-tier waterfalls at Gullfoss on the Hvita present a stunning sight, whether part-frozen in winter, in full flood during the spring melt, or roaring away during the long summer twilight. Gullfoss looks almost too perfectly landscaped to be real: The Hvita river hurtles over a low tier, turns 90 degrees, plunges into a cloud of spray, and shimmies offstage through a picturesque gorge. Clear skies guarantee a rainbow.


The Blue Lagoon
The Blue Lagoon is Iceland’s premier geothermal spa and one of the country’s most beautiful. Set in a desolate lava wilderness, the lagoon’s bright blue waters add a surreal splash of color. The lagoon was artificially created from pumped-in seawater and runoff from a geothermal power plant -- not exactly a natural wonder, but it could make you feel like one.

A dip in the sublime waters of the Blue Lagoon is a quintessentially Icelandic experience. 


Landmannalaugar
There is a naturally heated bathing area in the middle of the campsite. This is totally natural & it can be strange to be swimming with the wildfowl. Most suitable destination for campers, photographers and hikers who frequent the hills. This is a hiking area, so be prepared with good walking boots and suitable backpack. A lightweight tripod or mono-pod is convenient. 
 
 
Other than that, Iceland also a destination that available to see the incredible Northern Light or Aurora Borealis. The Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis is a natural phenomenon that can paint the night sky with unearthly, surreal color. 


 The Northern Lights (or Aurora Borealis) are among the most spectacular phenomena on earth – and Iceland is the perfect place to see them.

Optimal conditions to see the northern lights in Iceland:

  • clear dark sky (away from the city lights)
  • the colder the temperature, the brighter the show
  • When? From middle September to middle April
