The Bridge Between Continents is literally what it sounds like - a bridge that connects two tectonic plates.

Located in the Reykjanes peninsula, it's a cool spot where you can literally stand between the North American and Eurasian plates.

You can stroll across the bridge, take photographs of the area, and explore underneath, too. The surrounding landscape is quite barren, with volcanic black rock all around the ocean in the distance. It's a unique area, and well worth a stop if you're on the peninsula.
