Iceland: The land of waterfalls and we were not disappointed. Our first time to see this beautiful country and we started seeing the gorgeous waterfall leaving the town of Akureyri.
**********
Godafoss
Also known as the "Waterfall of the Gods", this holds a very special place in the significant imagination of the people in Iceland. In the year 1000, the time when law speaker of Iceland encountered difficulty to convert the country to Christianity, he tossed the icons of his Norse deities into the waterfalls, however secretly continued to adore and love them. Conveniently situated near the Ring Road amidst Lake Myvatn and Akureyri, this waterfall is a must see attraction. Visitor's friendly attraction in Iceland, which really allows travelers local and international, to bring their vehicles right up to the edge of twelve-meter high waterfall that flows into the ample river of Skj�lfandaflj�t.
