Perhaps it's because Iceland has some of the purest air and water in the world, as well as some of the best hot springs.

Perhaps it's because Iceland is a mysterious country: compared to other Nordic countries, Iceland seems to be very primitive and very close to nature. Therefore, although the environment here seems to be harsh, there are still many people from all over the world who like to travel here to challenge and see the natural environment here.

Iceland is famous for its cold climate and low pollution, so it is famous for its wool.

Necklaces with Norse ancient characters are also a special souvenir worth bringing home.

Iceland has three national parks.

The first, Thingvellir, is located in southwest Iceland, 50 kilometers east of the capital, where the first national "People's Congress" was held by early Icelandic settlers in 930, establishing the world's first democratically elected parliament and the first Icelandic constitution.

Therefore, it is called the National Park of the Former Parliament.

It is a beautiful place, famous for its fractured valleys of the Eurasian and American tectonic plates and the pristine and deep Parliament Lake.

The park is also a World Cultural and Natural Heritage Scenic Area.

The second is Vatnajökull National Park (Skaftafell), located in the southeast of Iceland, which is the largest national park and nature reserve in Iceland.

The park combines glaciers, volcanoes, canyons, forests, waterfalls and spectacular scenery.

The second, is the Glacier Canyon River National Park (Jö Kullsargljufur), located in the north of Iceland, is home to one of the largest waterfalls and one of the longest canyons in Europe.

In fact, everyone who comes to Iceland knows about the Blue Lagoon.

The Blue Lagoon is the largest hot spring in Iceland.

About an hour's drive southeast of Reykjavík, Iceland's capital, is the Blue Lagoon, Iceland's famous geothermal hot spring. Some tourists come here to take a short break from a plane transfer in Iceland to the Blue Lagoon.

Ye Chao also went to join in the excitement......

The Blue Lagoon has now become almost the most typical promotional photo in Iceland.

Many people soak in the light blue hot springs, and once you leave the airport, the geography begins to change significantly.

Ye Chao occasionally has a small fishing village next to the coastal road, and after entering the interior, the road on both sides is even more desolate, and the endless volcanic lava is covered with bryophytes, like a soft carpet on the earth.

It's beautiful......

Overall, this Blue Lagoon is Iceland's famous outdoor bath, a world-famous geothermal hot spring, located southeast of the city of Reykjavík.

People call the Blue Lagoon a "natural beauty salon".

The formation of the Blue Lagoon is very special, the sea water absorbs heat through the hot volcanic lava layer underground, and the water contains many chemical and mineral crystals that have been proven by the Icelandic medical school to have some kind of healing effect on mental stress, so the various products extracted from the Blue Lagoon are also recognized.

Don't be reckless when entering the Blue Lagoon, go down the sand slowly, the bottom is undulating, and be careful not to hit the sudden lava.

Of course, for Ye Chao, he would never make such a low-level mistake.

The Blue Lagoon is famous because: 1. It is an open-air hot spring. Thanks to the geothermal heat, visitors can soak in the warm water and fully enjoy the bounty of nature even when the snow is falling.

2. Hot spring mud.

Since Iceland is a volcanic country and the Blue Lagoon is located on an extinct volcano, the beneficial minerals in the strata are deposited at the bottom of the lake, and people with good water or luck will rejoice when they dig into the white mud, because this mud is said to be beautiful and healthy.

It is said that the formation of the Blue Lagoon is very special.

Seawater absorbs heat from hot volcanic melt formations underground, and the water contains many chemical and mineral crystals that have been proven by Icelandic medicine to relieve stress and have some healing properties, so the various products extracted from the Blue Lagoon are also popular.

In Iceland, there is a type of horse called the Icelandic horse.

This breed of horse has one of the purest bloodlines in the world, having been brought to Iceland from Northern Europe about 1,200 years ago and has not been crossed with other breeds for thousands of years.

Despite their small size, they are incredibly powerful, brave the cold, and excel in long-distance races.

Iceland is known for its icy Arctic scenery and abundant geothermal resources, while the small Icelandic horse is a popular item for the Royal Guard and horse racing enthusiasts due to its hardiness and disease resistance, strong physique and steady pace.

Icelandic horses are the purest breed of horses on the planet, and they are the pride of Icelanders because they are born with more footwork than any other horse in the world.

Why do there are horses in Iceland?

It is said that during the 9th century, piracy flourished, bringing different horse breeds to the Icelandic region and stationing them, most of which were of German origin.

There are two explanations for the ancestry of Icelandic horses: the first is that Equus Scandinavicus, which originated from Scandinavia and Northern Europe, is said to have been partially separated during continental drifts, partly crossed with horses of foreign blood, and retained to evolve into Icelandic horses.

Another theory is that the Icelandic horse is a relative of the English Exmoorpony horse.

Icelandic horses play an important role in the lives of the local people.

In old Norwegian mythology, the gods were mounted on an eight-legged Icelandic horse. So much so that most club monograms in Iceland adopt the image of this horse.

Icelandic horses are also often seen in modern legends.

In the battle for pirates, the Icelandic horse is an indispensable element for the warrior to defeat the pirate, and even if the hero dies, the Icelandic horse must accompany the burial.

For centuries, Icelandic horses have been the main means of transportation and agricultural animals. It is the best "slave" of human beings from birth to death.

But from 1904 onwards, Icelandic horses were replaced by automobiles and gradually lost their usefulness.

Luckily, some horse lovers also founded the Icelandic Horse Association in the same year, making a big contribution to the conservation effort. There are 80,000 horses in Iceland, which is a large number compared to the population of 270,000.

The modern use of Icelandic horses is for riding and racing, and the only agricultural use is the annual sheep pen competition, where farmers ride horses and corral sheep in the highland pastures. From 1906 to the present day, breeding competitions have gradually brought Icelandic horses back to life.

Icelandic horses are known as "fassi" in Icelandic, which means "eye-catching mane". This is not without reason, as Icelandic horses all have long manes, as well as long tails. Icelandic horses are the purest breed on earth, as in 930 A.D., Iceland banned the importation of horses in order to avoid mixing.

At the same time, Icelandic horses are not allowed to return to their home countries even if they only participate in an international horse race.
