Simply put, Iceland’s famous Golden Circle is a popular route between three of the island's most visited attractions. Usually done as a day trip, the route starts in Reykjavik and takes you south and inland, to the Þingvellir National Park. There you enter the Geyser geothermal area with the Strokkur Geyser being most eager of the bunch. Finally, you arrive at to the 32-metre tall Gullfoss waterfall in the canyon of the roaring Hvítá river. Many tour agents and travellers themselves like to make extra stops along the way to see a geothermal power plant or spend a few hours at one of the spas. You could rent a car and drive between the landmarks at your own speed. In summer, you could even use the long daylight hours to avoid the crowds that tend to come earlier in the day. If you can pick your own route, don't miss the Kerid Crater Lake — a scenic lake that occupies a 3,000 years old volcanic crater that you can easily reach on foot.

Al-Rajhi Grand Mosque stands as one of the largest places of worship in Riyadh. Its vast prayer halls can accommodate over 20,500 worshippers, and the complex functions as a comprehensive Islamic centre with libraries and educational facilities. While entry is reserved for Muslims, the impressive exterior architecture, particularly striking when illuminated after dark, makes it a notable city landmark. The mosque's scale and community role underscore its significant position within the capital's religious and cultural landscape.
