Imagine Peace Tower
292 reviews

The Statue of Leif Eiriksson
742 reviews
#15 of 65 Sights & Landmarks in Reykjavik
"A gift from the US to Iceland to commemorate the European discovery of North America by Viking era explorer Eiriksson around 1000 A.D. The statue, erected in 1932, predates the church (1945).""The statue looks like a Guardian to the Cathedral on an impressive plinth, well worth reading the inscription about its origin, I imagine it weights a lot, well worth a photo opportunity of this impressive statue."
Reykjavik City Hall

"... to the neighbourhood of the City Hall, whether it is to look a the ducks, swans and geese at the city pond, have refreshments at the coffee shop or bring foreign friends to admire the huge relief map of Iceland.""There is a large map on the lower level with topography so that you can see the different areas of Iceland and how they are divided by the north American and European tectonic plates."
Hofdi House
517 reviews
#21 of 65 Sights & Landmarks in Reykjavik
"Hofdi House is near the coast and although closed is worth a visit alone, It was built in 1909 for the french consul Jean Paul Brillouin, also was residence to a poet for many years.""In fact, we stopped on our way to the airport, it took about 10 minutes to read the plaques there and look around and then we headed out."
Sculpture and Shore Walk
36 reviews
#25 of 65 Sights & Landmarks in Reykjavik
"The path is well surfaced although a little icy... but the clue is in the name :) The views out over the harbour and to the snow capped mountains are stunning, and you get plenty of fresh air along the way.""Take in the boats, ships, Solfar and Partnership sculptures, as well as the famous house where Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan met at for a peace summit."
