Perlan is one of Reykjavík’s most notable landmarks. Perlan was built on top of six hot water tanks, each of which holds over 4 million litres of hot water. Perlan opened in 1991 and features The Glaciers and Ice Cave Exhibition Wonders of Iceland, a cafeteria, restaurant and an observation deck. Wonders of Iceland provides insight into Iceland’s unique nature. Visitors can experience the power of volcanoes, earthquakes and see realistically rendered bird cliff. Experience oceanic wonders and walk through a 100 m long real Ice Cave.
