If you are short on time but would like to see something that fully represents Iceland, make Þingvellir your destination. It is a must-see, as it is only about an hour away from the city centre by car. 

Þingvellir is a national park filled with historical, cultural and geological significance. Þingvellir was the site of Alþingi - the annual parliament of Iceland from 930 until 1798. The park lies in a rift valley caused by the separation of 2 tectonic plates and is the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. 

At Þingvellir you can also see lake Þingvallavatn, which is the largest natural lake in Iceland. Nature is breath-taking and a walk around the park will completely rejuvenate you!
