Akureyri
With just roughly 18,000 people, Akureyri is the largest town outside the southwest, and considered the “capital of the north.” It’s located next to a beautiful fjord Eyjafjörður and boasts picturesque and diverse architecture.
The highlights are the Lystigarðurinn Botanical Garden, which displays most of Iceland’s plants, the impressive Church building, and Listagilið, where visitors can find shops and art galleries including the Akureyri Art Museum.
