Lava Show Reykjavík: We Watched Real Molten Lava Flow — and Left Holding a Piece of It
Iceland does not do subtle.
The ground cracks open. Glaciers melt over volcanoes. Geysers blast boiling water into the air every few minutes to remind you of the activity underneath.
And then, in a quietly lit room in Reykjavík's harbor district, a stream of glowing orange lava — real, 1,100°C (2,000°F) molten lava — pours in front of your face while you sit in your seat, feeling your cheeks get very, very warm.
That's the Lava Show.. And yes, it's exactly as spectacular as it sounds.
We experienced it during our recent trip to Iceland, and it earned its place as one of the most fascinating things we've done in a country that is, let's be honest, already full of genuinely fascinating things.
Here's the full story — including how it works, where the lava actually comes from, and what happens when you hold a piece of Iceland's volcanic past in your hands.
