Þrídrangaviti lighthouse


Construction completed in 1942.  Now equipped with a helipad and powered by solar energy.  Video of helicopter approach.  More info.

  1. That looks VERY fake. Like one of those where the next picture would have the photographer in the frame showing how he set up the shot of the two inch miniature lighthouse. I know it is not, but wow. Gorgeous. Seems like they would want the light taller then the peak of the rock there next to it.

  5. "Why Did You Lie" is a great mystery by Yrsa Sigurðardóttir that is set here.
