Laugavegur

The main road through Reykjavik - this is where you'll find the bulk of the shops, restaurants and bars. There's a little something for everyone, but if you're staying at a hotel along this road, be prepared for some noise late at night.

Laugavegur is the main commercial street in downtown Reykjavik and is where most tourists walk to explore the city. You can find quaint shops for souvenirs, restaurants and bars all around.

Laugavegur is one of Rekyjavik's oldest and most popular shopping streets. It's the main road through the downtown section of the city and is home to many restaurants, galleries, and shops - both souvenir and otherwise. A lot of hotels are located here, as well. We stayed at OK Hotel, which is a small, two level hotel located here.

One of the stranger signs (Single Gloves and Speed Dating), spotted on the Laugavegur pedestrian shopping street in downtown Reykjavik. Excellent strip of shops, cultural sites, restaurants and bars. Absolutely worth a stroll.

Everyone ends up walking down Laugavegur, one of the main streets in Reykjavik. It's usually closed to vehicular traffic--a good thing since blurry eyed travelers are trying to figure out the city. Here you'll find tourist offices, unique shops, little cafes, and the interesting Icelandic Phallological Museum.
