Thingvellir
By @silvia
Thingvellir is where Iceland’s first parliament met over 1,000 years ago. With cliffs and cracks between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, its trails lead through lava fields, rivers, and waterfalls like Öxarárfoss. It’s both a historic and natural highlight of the Golden Circle.

About @silvia
Every place whispers its story; its cafés, galleries, backstreets, and the animals that live there. My maps are small love letters to culture and to the lives I quietly watch unfold.
