Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Great Geyser (3718241364).jpg |
When visitors describe the country they are hard put to find the right words for the Geyser: a spectacular water fountain, a hot water source, spouting to the heavens. The Great Geyser: you have to see it to believe it. For someone who has never seen a geyser, the sight is overwhelming. This landmark of Iceland is a spectacular natural phenomenon beyond description. The geothermal field surrounding the Great Geyser is the definitive geyser, having given its name to the geological phenomena. The Strokkur, another famous geyser located nearby, gives a performance every few minutes, shooting a tower of water and steam 30 meters into the air. There are other attractions apart from the magnificent geysers. For example, Blesi, a hot spring with water the colour of turquoise delights the senses. Walking about this natural wonder, one experiences the intensity of the forces of nature. Night time offers a fascinating view of the bubbling hot springs. A pot of boiling water takes on new dimensions. Take a closer look in Original (4213 x 2669) |
