A Reykjavik Primer
There’s nothing quite like Iceland—a comfortably cosmopolitan Reykjavik (replete with a thriving artistic community and nightlife) butts up against some of the most beguiling natural wonders the world has to offer. It’s a study in contrasts, but manages to have the best of both. Accessible enough for a long weekend, but magical enough that two weeks wouldn’t be a stretch. Here are the makings of a perfect visit:

Hallgrimskirkja
Skolavorduholti
It’s pretty hard to miss this Reykjavik landmark—though the
steeple of this Lutheran church is only 244 feet, it towers above the
city’s charmingly low-rise buildings. Take a quick stop
inside—the sweeping arches feel like a modern take on a Lord of
the Rings relic.
