What Volcano Erupted in Iceland?

For the first time in 800 years, recently a volcano erupted in Iceland. The volcano Fagradalsfjall, close to the capital city Reykjavik, came back to life on Friday, March 19th. Iceland was experiencing around 40,000 earthquakes in the past three weeks. While an erupting volcano sounds scary, this one was quite delightful. With no injuries or deaths, the most this volcano caused was a bit of a traffic jam. Otherwise, the locals didn’t mind and the singer Bjork, quite happy.

This excitement for the eruption came from locals not only because it is an insanely cool event to witness, but because they can finally rest again after weeks of earthquakes.

Iceland is full of natural wonders. It was reported as the volcano was erupting that the northern lights were visible at the same time. It is nearly impossible to anticipate the shows put on by the natural world. But that should not stop anyone from visiting Iceland and witnessing a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon. While it could be another 800 years before Fagradalsfjall decides to erupt again, Iceland is home to more than 30 active volcanos. You have not missed your chance to see one of nature’s most beautiful attractions.
