Faroe Islands

A narrow, mountainous island in the northeast of the Faroes, accessible only by ferry — known as the green island despite its stark grey appearance, and famous for the James Bond film location at the northern cliffs.

The southernmost village on Streymoy, the religious and cultural heart of the medieval Faroes — containing the ruins of the Magnus Cathedral, the 12th-century Saint Olav's Church, and the world's oldest inhabited wooden house.

A single powerful waterfall on the edge of Gásadalur village, dropping straight into the North Atlantic Ocean — one of the most dramatic water-and-sea combinations in the North Atlantic.

A long narrow lake on Vágar island, appearing to hover above the Atlantic Ocean due to the dramatic cliff of Trælanípan — the Faroes' most photographed natural illusion.

The historic peninsula of Tórshavn, where the Faroese parliament first convened in 825 AD — one of the three oldest parliamentary sites in the world, still functioning as the seat of the home-rule government.

The easternmost village on Streymoy, backed by the dramatic twin peaks of Hælur and Meyðiskor — one of the most iconic mountain silhouettes in the Faroes, rising straight from the sea.
