Where are you going?/Iceland (2010)

Perlan 1 - Reykjavik, Iceland (2010, 6, 11)


Perlan. The landmark of Reykjavik. In the centre of this city, there is a hill, Öskjuhilð and four cylinders sit on the top of this hill with a hemisphere cap. These cylinders have had a role of tanks to store hot waters to produce electricity and now, these building have Saga museum that introduce Icelandic history, one of the best (and the most expensive) restaurant in Iceland and a souvenir shop. On top of the hill,  a very scenic view of this capital of will be absolutely impressive. Iceland surrounded by blue sea. The weather of Reykjavik was unpredictable, but fortunately, we could enjoy blue sea as well as blue sky. Green green glass provided us a kind of clear line between sea and sky. 


Perlan은 수도 Reykjavik의 랜드마크로 Reykjavik에서는 제법 높은 곳에 위치하고 있어서 이 곳에서 둘러보는 Reykjavik의 풍경은 가히 일품이다. 일단 Öskjuhilð에 올라서면 마치 두루마리 휴지같은 건물들 4개가 붙어있는데 이 실린더 모양의 건물들은 일종의 온수 저장소라고 한다. 이 물탱크 위로 엘리베이터를 타고 올라가면 Reykjavik 시내 뿐만아니라 더 멀리 새들의 고향이라는 Viðdey 섬까지 볼 수있다. 운좋게도 이 날은 날씨가 좋아 멋진 바다의 풍경과 푸른 하늘이 한데 어우러져 잊혀지지 않을 풍경을 우리에게 선사해 주었다. 


Around this building, there are lots of stroll to connect with the golden beach of the south or down to downtown or bike ways. So, a lot of Icelanders and tourists visit here and enjoy their own way. I just take a walk on the green grass, pick up some dandelions and blow up the seeds of the flowers. What a peaceful scenic! If I had more time to stay here, I went down on my foot and soaked up this calm  excluded from the noise of the city. Anyway, it was time to get in the building and go up on the famous hexagonal deck of Perlan. When we look up in the building, the sunshine got through the roof as dimming itself fantastically like surreal paintings. Furthermore, the reflected sky on the glass window, we could not miss it.
