Þingvellir is where the Icelandic parliament was established in the year 930. That's so long ago that they don't know the exact location of the Law Rock where the Lawspeaker recited the law.

Hafnarfjall is a majestic heap of black stuff. It broods between two fjords just north of Reykjavík.
Hraunfossar flow out from under a lava field. This photo shows only some of the falls. They go on and on.
