The Pearl

The Pearl is a unique building on a hill in Reykjavik. Huge cylindrical tanks form part of the building and hold natural hot water for heating the city. In the center of the tanks a glass dome has been constructed. Under the dome is a rotating restaurant and the Saga Museum, which displays wax figures of Vikings.
