Iceland - Reykjavík City Center

Although the city is ancient and much of the architecture is historic, there are many interesting examples of modern design scattered throughout. Below is the Reykjavík City Hall on Lake Tjornin - not that stunning, sure - but interesting for what it contains!

Located in the lobby of this building is a map nerd's dream come true - a giant relief map of Iceland! That is Lake Tjornin through the window...

Another view with humans in the shot so you can get a sense of the scale - for comparison purposes, Iceland is about the same size as the State of Kentucky.

Finally, last shot of Iceland - the staircase of my hotel, the Nordica. A rather stylish method of egress don't you think?
