Akureyri

Akureyri is Iceland''s second-largest city, after the greater Reykjavik area. ''City'' may be too generous a term as there are only 20,000 people who live there, closer to that of a town elsewhere in the world.Akureyri is often called the ''Capital of the North,'' while Reykjavik is branded the ''Capital of the South.'' An approximate 5-hour drive separates them.
