▲ The "sand" at Reynisfjara Beach is actually granular volcanic lava. These lava particles contain no impurities, silt, or dust. When you scoop up a handful, your palm turns completely black, yet a gentle shake sends the dark grains scattering without leaving a trace on your skin—a truly remarkable phenomenon. Additionally, near the beach stands a peculiar lava mountain rising dramatically from the sea.
▲ Skógafoss cascades down 60 meters from a lush forest with tremendous force, often featured in advertisements. Its fame stems not from its grand scale or beautiful appearance, but from an ancient legend. The Viking who discovered this waterfall supposedly threw a large chest of treasure into the deep pool below. After this tale spread, countless treasure hunters flocked to the site.
▲ Seljalandsfoss is located in southwestern Iceland and is one of the taller waterfalls near Reykjavik. There is a curved path at the base of Seljalandsfoss that allows visitors to walk behind the waterfall, offering a unique perspective to admire its spectacular scenery.
