Lake in the heart of downtown, representing more than just an obligatory passageway between the center and the university district
The Tjörnin, a small lake right in the center of town, acts as a magnet for Icelanders and tourists alike. It's much more than an obligatory stopover between the city center and the university district. The most beautiful mansions in the old town surround it, and the changing weather makes it shiny, metallic or dark. Its benches invite long moments of contemplation and observation of the many Icelandic birds that frequent its banks and islets. In winter, when it's cold enough, it can also be used as an ice rink!

Situé au centre de la ville, à côté de l'hôtel de ville, ce petit lac, en partie recouvert de glace en mars, est le domaine de prédilection des habitants de REYKJAVIK, mais aussi des canards, cygnes et autres oiseaux. Le lac est entouré de belles demeures et tout à côté, on peut y voir une bien curieuse statue, celle d'un bureaucrate anonyme, constitué du torse, des bras et des jambes d'un personnage portant une mallette, mais dont la tête est remplacée par un énorme bloc de pierre.

Nice stroll along the lake where we took advantage of the sun, ducks, and a guide!

Superbe lac situé en centre ville et entouré d'habitations anciennes et typiques. Sur le lac, canards oies et compagnie se rassemblent ; et autour du lac, touristes et islandais se mélangent pour profiter de la vue. Bref, un endroit immanquable à Reykjavik
