Perlan
Six hot water tanks have became the base of Perlan, shaped and named after a pearl, it now characterizes Iceland’s capital – in the minds of citizens and travelers alike. Each tank can keep up to four million liters of hot water. The building is also an experience center which introduces Icelandic nature in unique, high-tech ways. The building houses exhibits, a Planetarium, an Observation Deck, a gift shop, a restaurant and a cafe. The large observation deck lies on the top of the hot water tanks and encircles the entire dome to give an amazing 360° view of Reykjavík and the surrounding area.
