Top 5 sights on the Faroe islands

When you travel to Faroe Islands, there is a lot of places to see. Top 5 sights:

Vestmanna bird cliffs Sail into deep grottoes through narrow straits, close to the almost 700 metre high sheer cliffs, where thousands of sea birds such as puffins, guillemots and fulmars breed every summer. (On Streymoy)

Gásadalur og "Múlafossur" In the isolated and idyllic village Gásadalur you can enjoy the spectacular view to the famous waterfall "Múlafossur" - et must see for all visitors (On Vágoy)

Historic Kirkjubøur Kirkjubøur is one of the Faroe Islands most important historic places with a church from the Middle Ages still in use, one of the world's oldest inhabited log houses and the ruins of the St. Magnus Cathedral dating from the 13th century. (On Streymoy)

The natural harbour in Gjógv The village is characterized by its charm, magnificent landscape and characteristic natural harbour, which is a gorge with steep cliffs on both sides. The colours on the rocks are fascinating and the acoustics in the gorge is no less impressive. On several occasions through the summer, musical concerts are held in the gorge. (On Eysturoy)

The Seal Woman Visit the village Mikladalur, that is well known for the saga of the Seal Woman. By the sea you will find a 3m tall statue of the Seal Woman, that defies the wind and rain to catch a last glimpse of her children who she the was forced to leave behind when she returned to the sea.

I think it was a great (the best) idea to do the Faroe Islands by car, because you can stop wherever/whenever to take pictures and do your own schedule.

Everyone should visit the Faroe Islands its the best place in the world and the people are so friendly

Thomas Petersen (from Facebook)

It was a great idea to come in winter, even though some parts were not open (like going to Mykines), I loved it that there were not flocks of tourists everywhere so I could have it aaaaaalmost for myself haha… that was great.
