Reykjavik receives a nine from me. It's a pleasant little city.

...8/10 that church is astonishing!

That church is pretty cool, but it really doesn't have much of a skyline.... hmmm... I give it a 5 out of 10.

Nice and beauful city!
but Skyline is not good.

Nice little town, but that's about it. 4/10.

7.5/10
The skyline isn't up to much, but that church is really impressive.
:)

It almost has the appearance of a mountain - very impressive. I can't really rate the skyline highly on that building alone though - what are the new proposals like?

5/10

The city is very nice but vere is the skyline?, well i have seen reykjavik before sio i'l give it 7/10

nice city
but where is the skyline???

Nice town, I like it...but as we are rating skylines 3 or less

I can't see a skyline, I can just see a giant church
4/10

Sometimes the height of buildings is not important and this is one of them. Looks like a nice city. I would like to see more pictures of Reykjavik and Iceland in general.

It has no skyline, but the shots are great

4/10

3.5/10

skyline?where?

It's unfair to judge Reykjavik on it's skyline as it doesn'ty really have one (except that Church is quite cool! It doesn't really need a skyline though, it's brilliant as it is.

Where's the skyline??? :? :? :? 3.5/10

for the city an 10/10 but for the skyline a 3/10, there is not buildings

Most of the other replies have said what I am thinking, nice but where is the skyline? 3.5/10.

Very nice small city and I know there are lots of tall buildings under construction now in Reykjavik

Currently 4/10 for the skyline

10/10 for the city with so many colourful houses and churches !!

the most cute little town I've ever seen. For it's size and beauty I give a 10.:)

8/10

3.5/10

skyline :?

C'est très joli! Ce serait pas mal qu'il y ait des gratte-ciel!
It's very nice! It could be godd if skyscrapers were built!

hihihi how cute .....3.5

it looks peaceful and nice!but there's no skyline,only one church!
4/10

5/10
It seems unfair to give it below 5, because it is quite nice....just missing the skyline.

5/10
Beautiful city !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

0/10

no skyline (it IS rate the skyline)

but I would give 10/10 for the colorful city

Seeing as its my hometown and the only place I've lived besides four years in the state of Illinois some years back, I'm obliged to give it 10. I'm really glad to see how everyone thinks its such a beatiful city and everything, I guess its true when I think about it, but living here pretty much since I was born kind of makes you forget how great it really is. And I agree, no skyline sucks a bit, but I've always liked Hallgrímskirkja (the church everyone here is talking about), in my opinion the most beatiful building in Iceland. Not to mention the largest one in the country, despite which it only reaches 73 meters/240 feet, though it can look bigger since its standing on the top of a hardly noticeable hill.

Actually, now that I look at them, I can see both the building I live in and the school I attend from some of the pics there, and I could draw a crude arrow or circle around them if anyones curious.

6/10 - Nice city but where is the skyline??!!

5 because no skys

6/10

6/10 for beauty
0/10 for skyline

It really looks cold!!!!!!!!

Iceland did a great jobs with the city cause its like building a city in greenland but no skyline.

3/10 for skyline!

Awesome, 9.5/10. :banana:

No skyline, except for a church and an office building. I give it a 3.5/10. :sleepy:

7/10. Nice small city, though lacks skyline.

7/10

4/10.

No skyline 3.5/10 Otherwise an amazing city 8.5/10!

5/10

I like it! 9/10

8/10- nice surroundings and well-developed for iceland's small pop.

pretty cool..
7/10

Hard to judge from one photo, but it looks uninteresting.

7/10

No tall scrapers? who cares, it's so unique and distinguished 8.5/10!

No skyline, 1/10

Went here a couple of weeks ago. I was thinking 6 at the time, so 6 it is

This is much of just a average sized city..I give it a 5/10....

Such a peaceful city.

Beautiful city, but skyline - 1/10 -)

not going to vote as I don't see anything to rate, but irregardless of buildings, the geographical beauty of Iceland cannot be faulted, what beautiful mountains and water..

No skyline....theres not even a city there, but a small nice town.

Plus, it looks very cold and empty.

3.5/10.

Iceland? Why is the grass green?

But a 5/10. Not the best, but a nice small town

2/10

Iceland? Why is the grass green?


That was a joke right?

8.5/10

I adore Iceland!

9!

Of course there is no real skyline, but... Why on Earth would a nice little city like Reykjavik want one?

6/10

9/10...

Iceland is so lucky to have a current near them... good for 131,000 people.

while us in Yellowknife (17,000)... we need to build a skyline on permafrost. looooollllllzzzzzzzzzz!!!

I don't know why people are comparing:
- Reykjavik (131,000)
- Yellowknife (17,000)
- Arkhangelsk (341,000) and
- Fairbanks (31,000).

maybe because of their northern location? but they have different populations and different scenarios. fairbanks and yellowknife have permafrost, while reykjavik and arkhangelsk have currents so they stay warm...

9/10 :)
