Highlights

Þingvellir national park is a UNESCO cultural site and geowhere. Þingvellir national park is a natural wonder on an international scale, with the geologic history and the biosystem of Lake Þingvallavatn forming a unique entity, a magnificent showcase. The Þingvellir area is part of a fissure zone running through Iceland, being situated on the tectonic plate boundaries of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. At Þingvellir – literally “Assembly Plains” – the Alþing general assembly was established around 930 and continued to convene there until 1798. Major events in the history of Iceland have taken place at Þingvellir and therefore the place is held in high esteem by all Icelanders. Today Þingvellir is a protected national shrine.

  1. At Thingvellir National Park, Iceland gave birth to its first parliament and was the first democratic national parliament in the world. It’s called Althing (Alþing). Therefore it’s Iceland’s most significant and historical and geological places. The parliament was founded in the year 930 AD and is the oldest parliament in the world that’s still fully operating. Althing was held outdoors at Thingvellir until the year 1844 when the Icelandic Parliament was moved to Iceland’s capital Reykjavik and has been operated there ever since. At Thingvellir, you can clearly see where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet and also how spectacularly these plates have been drifting apart. At the slow and non-violent speed the plates drift apart at the rate of 2 cm (0.79 in) per year. This process is steadily forming the island’s markable landscape over millions of years. After your visit to this markable place, you’ll leave with a sense of history as you explore more of the Icelandic nature since the area is a high concentration of volcanic activity and many newly lava fields can be found in many places as well as several lava tubes.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavík ist die nördlichste Hauptstadt eines Staates, eine bunte, kompakte Stadt voller Kunst und Musik am Tor zu Islands Vulkanlandschaften.

Die markante Hallgrímskirkja, deren Turm von Basaltsäulen inspiriert ist, ragt über Straßen mit bunt bemalten Häusern auf. Unten am Hafen schimmert die glasfassadige Konzerthalle Harpa auf dem Wasser, und die Skulptur Sun Voyager blickt über das Meer zum Berg Esja. Die Laugavegur, die Haupteinkaufsstraße, ist von Designläden, Cafés und Bars gesäumt.
