Meeting Benches World art in all forms
The southeastern part of Iceland is dominated by Vatnajokull glacier. The small villages of Hofn and Kirkjubaejarklaustur (along with some farm), greet the inhabitants of these places, where nature reigns supreme, next to the terrible sleeping volcano in the slot Lakagigar. South of the camp of Kirkjubaejarklaustur – within the grounds of a farm – you expect a masterpiece of natural architecture: the honeycomb Kirkjugolfio (80 square meters of basalt columns that are sectional, surface Honeycomb, like the floor of a church). http://www.iceland.is/
When you get to Systrastapi, observes the line of cliffs to the west of the city, where you will see two rock pillars. A legend says that on the rocks two nuns were executed. That same legend, also said that only after the Protestant Reformation the flowers are bloomed on top of the pillars of the two sisters. Fine. Now is the time of the imposing waterfall Systrafoss, one that plunges into ravine Baejargil. Above the waterfall, you will not see the two nuns in the mirror lake Systravatn, but do not do what the legend (collect a gold ring, offered by a mysterious hand), better take a walk around the lake, rising above the cliffs. http://www.icelandguide.is/kort/2013/05/southeast_iceland.html
