Spring Hike with Me: Reykjavik

Where to travel in spring? Northern Europe might be a good choice. Let’s go hiking in Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland! 📆Itinerary: Hallgrimskirkja Church - Sun Voyager - National Museum of Iceland - Icelandic Phallological Museum - Lake Tjörning 🚗Transportation strategy: Walking 🌟Highlights of the trip: ✅Halgrímskirkja Church: This church is an iconic attraction in Reykjavik. Built in 1930 and named after a famous Icelandic writer, the organ has a unique structure and attracts many tourists. ✅Sun Voyager: A local landmark building that looks like a fish bone. It also marks the first landing of the Vikings. With the blue sky and sea as the background, it presents a unique Viking style. ✅National Museum of Iceland: The museum at the end of the world. There are 2 floors in total. Introducing the history of this country in seven stages. If you are interested in history, it is recommended to reserve at least 2-3 hours to visit. ✅Penis Museum: A unique museum in the world, it houses the penises of nearly 93 different creatures, attracting a large number of tourists every year, especially female tourists. ✅Lake Tjörning: A lake located in the center of Reykjavik. There are flocks of seabirds and seagulls, and they are not afraid of people, so you can have close contact with them. On the other side of the lake are churches, city hall and other attractions. 📌Tips for playing: ✅March to May every year is Iceland's transition period and also the off-season for tourism. The temperature is starting to warm up gradually, but you still need to bring a thick coat. You can also see snow and flowers at the same time. ✅The statue at the entrance of Hallgrimskirkja Church is based on the father of Iceland's independence. In addition, there is an observation deck on the top of the church, where you can overlook the entire city of Reykjavik. The observation deck requires an additional fee. ✅The National Museum of Iceland contains nearly 3,000 collections, allowing people to understand Iceland from the aspects of colonial model, culture, art and language. The multimedia presentations in the museum are highly interactive. ✅The largest penis in the museum comes from a sperm whale and weighs 70 kilograms, which is amazing. The smallest comes from hamsters. You can take photos freely in the museum, don’t be shy! ✅Teyoning Lake is a paradise for many photography enthusiasts. If you don’t want to squeeze in with the crowds, it is recommended to come here in the early morning or evening. The lake will freeze in winter, making the photography more artistic.
