The Culture Capital
With miles of nothing but nature all around, Reykjavík is Iceland's confirmed repository of
all things cultural, from winning museums and sleek gallery spaces to a sparkling music
scene, a fat year-round festival calendar and a colourful guild of craftsfolk and designers.
White Nights
Reykjavík is notorious for its small but fierce nightlife. The best nights out start with coffee
at one of the dozens of cafes, 'pre-gaming' drinks at a friend's apartment, an unholy pil-
grimage between several beer bars, and a 4am sticky-floored romp to Top 40 beats.
Long Weekend Extravaganza
The perfect layover between Europe and North America: urban walking and biking tours
take in the capital's top sights, but the magic of Iceland unfolds just beyond - and the city's
well-oiled travel machine can instantly launch you into the wilderness.
