Sun Voyager (Sólfar) Sculpture

Highlight • Monument

The steel sculpture Sólfar (Sun Ride) represents a dream trip to the sun on a mystical boat. It lies on the shore path of Reykjavik against the backdrop of the local mountain Esjy and the Atlantic Ocean.
Due sculpture was created by the artist Jón Gunnar Árnason on the occasion of a bicentenary of the city of Reykjavík.

Harpa Concert Hall

Highlight • Monument

The actual architects of Harpa are Henning Larsen Architects‎ and Batteríið‎. The artist Ólafur Elíasson designed the concept for the design of the outer facade. Furthermore, visiting the Harpa is no longer free. 1500 ISK (as of 2017) has to be paid to visit areas other than the ground floor. It is also possible to book a guided tour of the Harpa.
