Hveragerdi

This picture was taken in Hveragerði in south Iceland in the year 2005. There are lot of hot springs in Iceland and Hveragerði has a lot of them...

The house in this picture is the hotel "Frost og funi" in Hveragerði. A very nice hotel...

"Hveragerði lies east of the main volcanic and eruptive zone of Iceland. The Mid-Atlantic ridge, which divides the American tectonic plate from the European plate, stretches up through the island in a northeasterly direction. Hveragerði is situated on an old main volcanic magma chamber of the so-called Hengill area, named after the mountain Hengill. The town, Hveragerði, gets its name from old descriptions, where its hot springs, hverir, were said to form a pattern like a fence, gerði."
