Glaumbaer (11)
Glaumbaer is perhaps 30 minutes driving south of Saudarkrokur. It is a very small village of turf houses which have been restored and maintained as a period museum. The reason there are so few remains of past builds and villages is because they were mostly built of turf. And that's because there are very few trees in Iceland and therefore little lumber. Most building that remain are stone and most modern construction is metal.
These photos were taken in August 2007 mostly with a Nikon D200.
