Iceland's capital, REYKJAVIK is surrounded barren lava fields, sitting under the shadowy mass of Mount Esja in the background. Even in the heart of this capital, nature is in evidence. Lake Tjornin, located in the centre of Reykjavik, is a birdwatchers paradise and is perfect location for a nature stroll. In spring, you can spot the Artic Terns returning for the summer. The Reykjavík Municipal Art Museum houses an immense collection of modern and established Icelandic and foreign art. The Museum also home to the Ásmundur Sveinsson Sculpture Museum, the Kjarval Collection, the Erró Collection, the Architectural Museum and the Reykjavík Municipal Art Collection.
