DIVISION BETWEEN EURASIAN AND NORTH AMERICAN TECTONIC PLATES, ÞINGVELLIR

Our next stop was at the ancient historical site of Þingvellir, where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet. It has also been the location of the outdoor Icelandic parliamentary gatherings and festivals for over 1000 years.
