Dimmuborgir

Photos from my visit to Iceland in 2010

Dimmuborgir is an area in northern Iceland with strange lava formations, which looks to have "grown out of" the ground to create walls of lava (which becomes almost like a labyrinth)

(Dimmu: "dark". Borgir: "forts/castles")

From wikipedia:

In Icelandic folklore, Dimmuborgir is said to connect earth with the infernal regions. In Nordic Christian lore, it is also said that Dimmuborgir is the place where Satan landed when he was cast from the heavens and created the apparent "Helvetes katakomber" which is Norwegian for "The Catacombs of Hell".
