15 Mind-Blowing Facts About Iceland: The Most Eccentric Country on Earth - travel documentary

Beneath the ice and snow lies a strange “universe”: Iceland – a land with no mosquitoes, no ants, but… an Elf Protection Agency. A place where the sun never sets throughout the summer, where people soak in public hot tubs and chat like neighbors (sometimes even with the president!), and where the culture is both modern and deeply infused with Norse mythology.

In this video, you’ll discover 15 shocking facts: the breathtaking black sand beach of Reynisfjara; Viking dating culture and an app to avoid “accidentally dating your relatives”; a nation with no mosquitoes or ants; alcohol sold only at Vínbúðin; a world-class gene bank; festivals that are “crazy yet poetic”; the real vs. perceived cost of living; and cuisine ranging from skyr and lamb soup to stories of dishes once considered a “national pride but later banned.”
