A true Christmas wonderland in Hellisgerði, this century-old and beautiful garden is located at the center of Hafnarfjörður. At the entrance from Reykjavíkurvegur, a beautiful red Christmas heart greets guests and pedestrians, and then a fairytale world of lights and wonder takes over. Festive lights and light figurines delight the eye and spirit. A lot of people make their way around the garden in their visit to the Christmas town. Families on a picnic trip with hot cocoa and Christmas cakes, children exploring the lava and caves as well as skating on the frozen pond. Some have been on an adventure and in search of elves and hidden people, as the story goes that a large number of elves and hidden people live there.
