================== ARTICLE START ==================
Should you happen to contemplate vacationing in Europe, you
could give Iceland a try where nature that means more than
beaches and resorts. Best of all, majority of the tourist spots
the country can offer will require no entrance fees unlike in
most other countries. Summer would be the best time to go there.

1.) Bláa Lónið

This is a famous health center with pool known as Blue Lagoon
located in southwest Iceland. This happens to be a spa located
in the center of lava filled with stunningly blue waters. One
will find this place one of the warm spots in the country as
opposed to the impression of a primarily snow-filled place that
the country's name implies.

2.) Gullfoss

One can try going east of the capital Reykjavik to be able to
get to the Golden Falls. The breathtaking waterfall is fed by
river known as Hvítá. This goes down a two-fold cascade to
create one of the best waterfalls you could visit.

3.) Geysir and Strokkur

As mentioned earlier, Iceland is also home to several
geothermal spots, and two of them are Geysir and Strokkur, which
happens to be a few kilometers on the west of the Golden Falls.
Between the two, it would be safer to go to Geysir since it
hardly erupts, and Strokkur would do so every few minutes. But
what a sight it would be and a picture worth taking only if you
keep a safe distance.

4.) Skagafjordur

It is one of the cities in Iceland which offers several fun
activities to tourists. One of the parks you will find here is
the Historical Nature Park Island Drangey then you can go on to
visit the Glaumbær, which happens to be a folk museum. And you
will need to wonder no more what an icelandic horse looks like
because this place is where they are bred. And yes, it's also
time to take the challenge of river rafting.

5.) Kerið

Here lies the sight of a lake within a volcano. Many times,
what you will find in countries are both active and inactive
volcanoes which would spew lava from time to time. This time,
you get a lake instead of lava right inside the crater of a
volcano.

6.) Þingvellir National Park

UNESCO has made this national park one of the world's heritage
sites for good reasons. This happens to be the place where you
will find the movement of European and North American shelf
plates while serving as the longest running parliamentary field
there is. Again, this, too, is just about 35 miles off the
capita's east.

7.) Mývatn

On this spot, you will get to visit the desert Smajfall which
gives out sulfuric steam coming from the ground. Here, you will
also see Dimmuborgir which is also known as Gates of Hell or The
Black City. But the name Mývatn actually refers to the lake
which looks nothing like other lakes due to presence of special
volcanic craters around it.

8.) Dettifoss

If you just came off the Jökulsárgljúfur National Park, you
might want to check this place out afterwards. A powerful
waterfall awaits you at Dettifoss. This happens to be one of the
best all over Europe.

9.) Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights

Textbooks have talked about the midnight sun. It was even
discussed in school. Iceland is the place to be to get to view
this sight where the sun does not set at midnight, and you will
not be able to find this occurrence in other countries.

10.) Vestmannaeyjar

When translated, the name means Westman Islands. It is actually
a volcanic island with a wonderful collection of bird species
and the biggest puffin colony you could find in Europe. That's
definitely something not to miss.
