冰岛因为冰川多，所以瀑布也多，人气最高游人最旺盛的是黄金瀑布，因为离首都不远，所以属于必游景点，可是我觉得黄金瀑布虽然壮观，但没有这个“上帝瀑布”具有美感，它名叫高达福斯瀑布（godafoss），含义就是“上帝的瀑布”，发源于瓦丁纳耶卡尔冰川，因为这里远离首都，所以普通游客可能无法必游。 "上帝瀑布" 最大的特征就是呈现中轴对称，而那个中轴就是中间那条细细的独立小瀑布，属于神来之笔啊，难怪要形容为上帝，这又是一件自然艺术品。

The Goðafoss (Icelandic: waterfall of the gods or waterfall of the goði) is one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Iceland. It is located in the Mývatn district of North-Central Iceland at the beginning of the Sprengisandur highland road. "上帝双瀑布"水色碧绿、雾气迷漫、涛声震耳.

The water of the river Skjálfandafljót falls from a height of 12 meters over a width of 30 meters.沿着陡峭岩壁往前走，可以探看瀑布上源，并拍照.

In the year 999 or 1000 the Lawspeaker Þorgeir Ljósvetningagoði made Christianity the official religion of Iceland.

After his conversion it is said that upon returning from the Alþingi, Þorgeir threw his statues of the Norse gods into the waterfall. Þorgeir's story is preserved in Ari Þorgilsson's Íslendingabók. A window in the Cathedral of Akureyri (Akureyrarkirkja) illustrates this story.

Named after the waterfall was MS Goðafoss, an Icelandic ship carrying both freight and passengers, that was sunk by a German U-Boat in World War II, resulting in great loss of lives.

其实这个瀑布还是比较宽的，这张照片展现，水量多的时节瀑布的全貌.
