Reykjavik travel tips
Visit to the Bókabúð Máls og Menningar bookstore is a must for avid readers
Keen on reading? Head to Bókabúð Máls og Menningar on Laugavegur 18 street. It is the largest bookstore in Iceland and one of the top 20 best bookstores in the world. It attracts not only local but also foreign book fans. The whole second floor is dedicated to English language books. Besides, the store has a pretty pleasant coffee shop inside.
See the perfect futuristic building in Reykjavik
It is not obligatory to be a concert-goer for visiting Harpa Concert Hall. Located in Austurbakki, 2 street, a building is completely made of glass with a wild geometric design. It is better to visit Harpa Concert Hall in the evening when multicoloured lights move inside it and make the building seem alive. And do not forget to have a stroll around the backside too.
