As you probably know, Iceland came onto the tourist radars because of great success in world football. Then this beautiful country was actively visited by many tourists, including celebrities -Justin Bieber and others. Icelandic landscapes have also appeared in various Hollywood films (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Prometheus, Oblivion, etc.).
So I decided that this wonderful and mysterious land deserves a separate quiz that may even consist of several parts. Let’s try to get the warmest impressions of the cold Northern exotics! Welcome to Iceland!
P.S. As always, there are some hints in the text of my tasks and pictures.
