I would like to travel to Iceland because I have read about its history and geography, it is a beautiful country, with impressive landscapes. I am very attracted to its geography. I mean the forms of the terrain, the weather, the geographical things that we found there, like the Geiser's, the basalt beaches, getting obsidian (volcanic glass) Also when I read, I traveled to the center of the land of Jules Verne, but I fell in love with Iceland .
I have inquired about its culture and gastronomy, and it has seemed fascinating to me. The people, their language and their customs fall in love with me.
One of the places I want to visit in Iceland is the very renowned village of Vík í Mýrdal which is located on the south coast of the island in the shadow of the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, which covers the Katla volcano. Despite being a small town (approx 300 hab.) Is the largest of about 70 km around. In it is a church at the top of the town very striking and beautiful. The beach near there has black pebbles, you can see the volcanic basalt geological formations that harbor seabirds like the puffins and according to tradition, these rocks are trolls that were petrified by sunlight and were trapped.
For this and more I want to know this interesting European country, which years ago was submerged from the Atlantic. Just look at the beauty of beaches in Iceland, in the previous photo and the next, they are really beautiful and dark. Regards!
