Parks & Nature
Almost 100 years old garden in a lava field. Started by pioneers in gardening, who were of course laughed at for trying to grow trees in Iceland. Known for rich presence of "hidden people", elves, dwarfs etc. who live and work in the garden, have their church by the pond and guard the children who play in the swings. Lovely picnic place. Next street up behind the house. Pictoresque christmas lights decorations.
