Gold Falls GULLFOSS Iceland More sheep, more horses, more waterfalls, in Iceland, there are countless large and small waterfalls, because in the golden circle, so the reputation is also the biggest, this is not my favorite waterfall, but It must be the most visited. Its a very common thing to see the rainbow at the waterfall when the weather is good. The Golden Falls are located in the capital of Iceland, Reykjavik, 125 km northeast, 10 km north of Geyser, and one of Europe's famous waterfalls. The Gullfoss is 2,500 meters wide and 70 meters high. It is the largest fault canyon in Iceland. It has a drop of 32 meters and is divided into two layers. The first floor is 11 meters and the second floor is 21 meters. After that, it flows into a 2.5 kilometer long. In the crack of the rock. It has been given the name of gold in two sources. One is that there will be a rainbow in the sun, the whole waterfall is more like gold than white, and the other is that a pirate has hidden a gold name here. The sound of water can be heard faintly. When I approached the waterfall, I found myself standing on the edge of the cliff. The rushing waterfall is distributed in steps, without a high drop, up to 11 meters, but it is tens of meters wide. The sound of the water roared, and the canyon was covered with a thin layer of water mist. The huge roar is like the war of the Viking warriors.

The only option is to drive, but it's best to hire a guide or driver. ✅Language: Icelandic. ✅Currency: Icelandic Króna. ✅Wildlife: Iceland is home to a variety of wild animals, including reindeer and Arctic foxes, but it's important not to disturb or approach them. ✅Accommodation: 1.
