About Reykjavik

Reykjavik, la capitale la plus au nord du monde, ville colorée d'art et de musique ouverte sur les paysages volcaniques islandais.

L'église Hallgrímskirkja, dont la tour s'inspire des orgues basaltiques, s'élève au-dessus de rues de maisons aux couleurs vives. Près du port, la salle de concert Harpa, aux façades de verre, miroite sur l'eau, et la sculpture Sun Voyager fait face à la mer en direction du mont Esja. Laugavegur, la principale rue commerçante, est bordée de boutiques de design, de cafés et de bars.
