    Beautifully landscaped parkland area
    This was a very special oasis in the city - a lovely place to walk and enjoy the beauty of the landscaped area with flowers, trees and shrubs. It is a splendid place to walk and unwind; also a good place for photography.

    Worth seeing (for plant lovers or just if you are in the area)
    We had some time before we embarked on our cruise round Iceland and this garden was within walking distance of our hotel (but not near the centre of Reykjavik).
    It was better and much more interesting than I was led to believe. We had a good conversation with one of the friendly gardeners who was obviously passionate about his work.
    The garden is laid out like a park, with a stream, colour co-ordinated borders, and amazing rockeries. There are also more formal beds with plants organised by family.
    The cafe in the centre looked good but we did not try it.
    Having been brought up in Oxford, with its world famous and ancient botanic garden, I would say this is not in the same class, but you will be amazed at what can be persuaded to grow in these climes.
    Definitely worth visiting if you have an hour or two to spare.

    Water, green, and birds in the middle of Reykavik
    Comfortable park in the middle of Reykavik. Plenty of birds nesting here, good path around the lake and through the park, flowers in the summer, and interesting sculptures on the perimeter. Everything made it an enjoyable way to enjoy a few hours.
