Downtown Reykjavík
This stop sits in Reykjavík's historic downtown core, the 101 postcode — the oldest, densest part of the city, built around the old harbour and Austurvöllur square, and still the beating heart of Icelandic culture and government.
📍 toward the south of Downtown Reykjavík.
Parking downtown is limited and metered — if you're driving in, the bus is usually the easier option.

A circuit of the pond takes about twenty minutes, which makes it an easy break between the museums and shops nearby. Spring and early summer bring the most birds, including Arctic terns and their chicks; you are asked not to overfeed the ducks with bread. In winter the surface often freezes, and locals skate on the ice.
Take the lift up the tower for a 360° view over the colourful rooftops, the harbour and the mountains across the bay; it is one of the best vantage points in the city. Allow around an hour including the interior, check opening hours for services and concerts, and look for the statue of Leifur Eiríksson on the square outside.
Made by the sculptor Jón Gunnar Árnason and unveiled in 1990 for Reykjavík's 200th anniversary, it is often described as a Viking ship. The artist himself saw it as a dream boat, an ode to the sun and a symbol of hope, progress and undiscovered territory. The work was cast in steel and sits on a granite base.
