Project 39 - European Church

May I present one of the most recent additions to the Reykjavik`s skyline ......
Hallgrimskirkja!
Pronounced ``hal-grim-skir-cah``

Thanks to this church, with its 75 metre high tower, we were able to navigate the city quite well since it could be seen from almost everywhere! My flat was on the same street, so thankfully even with my severe lack of a sense of direction, I could always find my way home =)
The statue in front is the viking Leifur Eiriksson, one of Iceland`s first settlers.
