The next stop is at Thingvellir, the site of the original Althing, considered the oldest democratic parliament in the world. This area is noted for its spectacular lava formations. After having explored the area we proceed to Geysir, the “geyser” which gave its name to all other erupting hot springs. We then continue to Gullfoss, a spectacular series of waterfalls.
