Gullfoss (The Golden waterfall) is a waterfall located in the canyon of Hvítá river in southwest Iceland. It is Iceland's most famous waterfall, and one of the natural wonders of the world. Gullfoss is actually two separate waterfalls, the upper one has a drop of 11 metres and the lower one 21 metres and also by far Europe’s most powerful waterfall. On a sunlit day, the mist clouds surrounding the hammering falls are filled with dozens of rainbows, providing an unparalleled spectacle of color and motion. Gullfoss appears on the cover of the album Porcupine by the British band Echo and the Bunnymen.
