Þingvellir

Staður

Þingvellir (Thingvellir) is a national park in southwestern Iceland, renowned for its historical and geological significance. It is the original site where the Alþingi, the world's oldest continuously running parliament, was established around 930 AD and convened until 1798. The park is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, situated in a rift valley where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are visibly pulling apart, creating dramatic fissures and cliffs. This unique geological setting and its pivotal role in Icelandic history make it a cherished national shrine and a popular tourist destination.
