The museum, part of the Reykjavík City Museum, began collecting buildings that were threatened by redevelopment in the city centre. Instead of demolishing them, they were moved here and restored. Together they give a vivid sense of how Reykjavík grew from a small fishing and farming settlement into a modern capital over the past two centuries.
Joining locals in the hot pots is one of the most authentic things you can do in the city; bring a swimsuit and shower thoroughly first, as is the custom. The botanical garden is a peaceful stop in summer, and you could spend half a day in the area, especially with children. It is easy to reach by bus.
Plan two to three hours if you want to see the exhibits as well as the observation deck. Booking tickets in advance is wise in summer. Afterwards, the woodland trails on Öskjuhlíð hill are great for a short walk, and Nauthólsvík geothermal beach is just a few minutes away. In winter, wear warm layers for the ice cave.
