Highlights of Reykjavik


The Colourful Houses of Reykjavik

The Colourful Houses of Reykjavik


Reykjavic is the capital of Iceland. Located on the southern western coast, it is the cultural and economic centre of Iceland. Within the capital area, it has a population of just under 250,000 people. As the country has a population of under 375,000 inhabitants, the vast majority live in Rejkjavik.

Whilst the first establishment in Iceland goes back to 874 EC as a norse settlement, it was only in 1786 when Reykjavik became an official trading post. With slow continual growth, it is one of the safest and greenest cities in the world.

The first houses were constructed for the wool trade. Other trades such as fisheries, ship building and sulphur mining followed. Most traders came from Denmark as it was the Danish Crown that granted the trading rights. After 1880, free trade permitted other nationalities to trade here.

On 1 December 1918 Iceland became independent as a sovereign country under the Crown of Denmark, the Kingdom of Iceland.

During World War II, German occupation occurred in Denmark and Norway on 10 May 1940. The British requested many times to permit occupation of Iceland but was always denied on the grounds of neutrality. Regardless the allied force took over Iceland with little resistance, and in many cases, with much support. British, American and Canadian troops were stationed here until the end of the war. The allied forces built airport constructions, leaving behind them better communications for the island.

Post-war development accelerated growth. The financial and IT sector in particular gained importance.

Nowadays tourism is an important revenue earner. In particular for tourists, the top attraction is Hallgrimskirkja. A 73 metre high church with its tower having a 360 degree view of the city of Reykjavic below. You access the tower by a lift with tickets sold at the church shop.

Second is the Nature Exploratorium. It is a fun and interactive way to learn about Icelandic nature. Highlights include a life-size bird cliff, an indoor ice cave and hands-on exhibits. In addition there is a show about volcanoes and a Planetarium dome theatre with the northern lights. Views of the Reykjavik area, the ocean, and the mountains around also make it a must-see tourist attraction and learning centre.

Be sure to check out the Harpa Reykjavik Concert Hall and Conference Centre for the latest exhibitions and concerts. Moreover located in the centre of the old harbour, the building itself has won many architectural accolades as well.

Apart from seeing Reykjavik, there are many tours to see the surrounding areas. After all, Iceland is famous for its volcanoes, hot geysers and northern lights. One such tour called the Goldern Circle encompasses three stunning locations in Southwest Iceland. These are Thingvellir National Park, The Geysir Geothermal Area and the Gullfoss Waterfall. Another option is a visit to the thermal spa of the Blue Lagoon.
