A local would say...

Iceland's most vibrant street is a leisurely walk from vinyl record shops and hand-knitted sweater boutiques up to a volcanic-rock cathedral at the top of the hill.

Reykjavík's liveliest district, built around two intersecting streets that are home to the city's top independent shops, music venues, restaurants, and the landmark Hallgrímskirkja church above. The neighbourhood buzzes with a creative, design-forward energy unique to Iceland — part Nordic cool, part volcanic island eccentricity. The street leading up to the church becomes a gallery corridor of street art and boutiques.
