Þingvellir National Park Hotels

Þingvellir National Park is a national park in South Iceland and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The park is home to the world's longest running Parliament, first established in 930 AD, and also has a dramatic landscape formed as a result of sitting along the border between the North American and European tectonic plates. Look for accommodation in Reykjavik, 40 km to the west, or try finding hotels in Selfoss, 36 km to the south, or Laugarvatn, 19 km to the southeast.

It's pretty enough on a sunny day, but absolutely breathtaking when it has snowed. Marlies H.
