The Snæfellnes peninsula, @westiceland is full of beautiful gems like the famous Kirkjufell mountain, the Vatnshellir cave or this stunning black church called Buðir church 🖤 This iconic landmark attracts many visitors because of its gorgeous surroundings - mountains and lava fields. It also has a fascinating history: it was first built in 1703, but it rotted down and was rebuilt in 1848. The Buðir church is particularly picturesque in the wintertime, covered in sparkling snow. ❄️

This East Iceland gem is one of the highest waterfalls in the country and it is located only 30 mins away from Egilsstaðir. The landscape around the Hengifoss waterfall in @visitausturland is a real color explosion: the greens of moss, blues of water and reds of the clay between the rocks create a magical sight ✨
Fun fact: On the way to Hengifoss there is Litlanesfoss waterfall, equally picturesque! 😍 #inspiredbyiceland

One of the things that Iceland is famous for is definitely the cozy Icelandic wool sweater, called lopapeysa. The Icelandic lopapeysa is more than just a pretty souvenir: it’s a lifesaver in Icelandic temperatures, a truthful companion on all travels and outdoor adventures, a sustainable piece of clothing that lasts for a very long time, and finally, a stunning must-have piece, that always looks good ✨#inspiredbyiceland ...

Winter in @northiceland might be cold but seeing the beauty of the aurora makes it all worthwhile 💚
Anyone planning to visit Iceland this winter and catch the northern lights? 🤩
👉 Pro tip: Keep in mind is that although auroras can be seen from dusk till dawn, on average, they most often appear around 11 PM. So, when you are outside chasing auroras, preferably stay out between 10 PM and 1 AM, and you have a better chance of catching them! #inspiredbyiceland ...

Today we celebrate the Day of Icelandic Language! 🇮🇸
This day is also the birthday of a famous Icelandic poet and author Jónas Hallgrímsson 📖 What is interesting about Icelandic is that it does not usually adopt foreign words; instead, new words are created in order to keep the language free of outside influence. Til hamingju með daginn!
