    A fascinating look at Iceland’s history and its treasures! It’s not enormous, but filled with so many extraordinary things - Viking artefacts, bones, the famous bronze Thor, incredible knitted mittens which are hundreds of years old, jewellery, fine crafts in whalebone, weaving and silver. A really great visit.
    There is a café, a super gift shop, bathrooms and cloakrooms. Well worth a visit.

    We bought loads of chocolate bars & dried fish for friends back home. While prices are great compared to other stores, we were surprised that the airport was selling same chocolates at lower prices on a sale. And wine we bought at vinbudin (?) also less because on sale at airport tho Vinbudin has great prices too. We are still glad we bought early & packed but just an observation.

    A good sized mall with all the shops that you need including a cinema. A good place to visit as a tourist if the weather is poor and soak up a couple of hours. Nice food court with a good variety.

    Not really what we expected from a flea market, more of an expensive Covent Garden kind of experience. What we found really disturbing was there seemed to ne a corner with a bit of a fascist obsession going on. Literally confederate flags with iron crosses on, KKKs meet N@zis! Lots of related stuff & it disturbed us so much, especially with a really feeling of toxic nationalism, we actually left.

    My wife and I stopped here on our recent trip to Reykjavik. We really enjoyed our stop. The frozen drinks and decor was great. I wouldn't recommend ordering a drink that is canned or bottled as you have to drink them fast bc they with freeze quickly. Place is small with little seating but it wasn't busy when we were there. All said it was still a must see for us.

    Wonderful shop with different local artists. Lots of different items that were priced well. I got a handmade Icelandic sweater for a very good deal.

    First I’ll say not a big fan of modern art, but love classical pieces. Museum had at least one interactive piece on every floor and activities for children. My favorite piece was one of women washing clothes in a hot spring.

    Art Gallery run by local artist- the open early and close later than many others. You can meet the artists in the shop, they take turn tending to the Gallery and helping customers. Always 1 artist to help you.
    At the end of the street you see the beautiful huge Hallsgrim Church. Many good shops and cafés on the same street

    Skúli Sverrisson has curated an wonderfully intimate space for local artists. Mengi provides an atmosphere you could expect at some of the most exclusive venues in New York City, combined with accessibility to some of Iceland’s greatest talents both new and old. 10/10 would recommend an evening at one of Mengi’s events.

    Jon Samunder and the Dead Gallery is a trip. His gallery is stuffed with paintings currently in preparation for a show opening on Sept. 24th in town. While his long term focus seems to be skulls, portraits and complex-patterned paintings of faces/shapes/symbols and ritualistic figures, he is also making some beautiful images of the recent volcano, plants and flowers. He is gifted and I think very worth collecting. I purchased 2 of his volcano paintings - roughly 24x24 for under $1000. A number of the larger pieces were very impressive and will find good homes, I am sure. When we found the gallery, down a side alley off one of the main walking streets in old town, there was tape across the open front doorway. I had to knock and yell before he appeared out of a fabulously packed working art studio space. He said he was closed, too busy working on his upcoming show. I ignored his response and began pointing to paintings that I thought were interesting from the outside doorway view. He responded by spending 45 minutes talking art and looking at a wide array of his work. Jon is much more than a skull ring and t-shirt artist. He has a vision of reality that is extremely outsider, but with the skills to produce well composed and original images. It was a trip meeting Jon and I am happy to have his work hanging in my Chicago condo.

    Came to Iceland to see the sights and then stayed by the airport. On the way back from The Golden Circle stopped here for fuel (they have diesel ) for best price and the food court. Once inside it is just like my local Costco in Georgia USA.

    Was walking by one of the @MJUK shops in Reykjavik and tiok a liking to a woolly hat in the display window....went in, met Pilar and fell in love with her "princess poncho" - got exactly the same for my daughter (hope she hates it so I can have it!🤣)
    And then Pilar showed me the versatility of the reversible classic poncho with faux fur trim - all made in Iceland - and I ended up getting it for myself. I like buying Locally made / sourced items when I travel, so this was just great. What made it even more perfect was the fact that adjustments can be made to items bought (approx. 30 mins), as the seamstresses are just right up the road!
    Thanks for the great laughs Pilar (& dutections to our hotel)!🤗
