Previously, we wrote about 10 Most Beautiful Island Countries in the World, Iceland is one of great beautiful country. Hofskirkja Church is found in Öræfi which a region located in the western part of the county of Austur-Skaftafellssýsla in Iceland. Öræfi is about thirty kilometers from the Vatnajökull glacier and approximately twenty kilometers south of the Vatnajökull National Park. For a very long time Öræfi was among the most inaccessible areas in the country. The melting of the Vatnajökull glacier obstructed the path to and from the place. In 1974 a bridge was built and it finally enabled travelling to and from Öræfi. It is said to be the largest bridge in Iceland and measures 904 meters. The inhabitants of the region have upheld the wonderful tradition of greeting travellers to their place and providing them with food and shelter before proceeding on their journey. Hof is basically a small village housing a large expanse of farms which is still very sparsely populated today. The Hofskirkja church of Iceland is found in Hof and is one of the six churches in Iceland still maintained nowadays and well-looked-after as a historical monument.
