Godafoss, one of the waterfalls of Iceland in the north of the country. The Goðafoss is one of the larger waterfalls of Iceland. The waterfall is located in the Myvatn district, in central north Iceland at the beginning (or end) of the Sprengisandur route that runs across the country. The water of the Skjálfandafljót River falls over a width of 30 meters 12 meters downwards, and the Goðafoss is divided into rocks by rocks. In the year 1000 AD, at the parliament at Þingvellir, it was decided to accept Christianity as a national religion (at least outdoors, if you could still worship the ancient gods.) The designer of this construction, Thorgeir Thorkelsson, the lawyer, who is on his way to his house At Ljósavatn came along the Goðafoss, as a reminder of his conversion, he cast his pagan idols into this waterfall. Hence the name: Godenwaterval.
