Tinganes

The attractive, historic centre of Torshavn, with old grass-roofed buildings. The headquarters of the Faroese Government is based here.

Reviewed By earthtravelller

Lovely picturesque compact area in the centre of Torshavn between the two harbours and steeped in history. This is the location of the Faroese Parliament and Government buildings, narrow cobbled streets, grass roofed cottages and a photographic opportunity at every turn. Well maintained and a living area with residents rather than a museum, an absolute must see in this tiny capital.

Olavskirkjan

Reviewed By ivart2017

The Olavskirkjan is a part of the three churches at Kirkjubour. It is still in use even it is very old. The church invites the visitors to pray in silence but you are also welcome to study the architecture and changes to it over time. The wood structure in the tower is wonderfull and of very high level of craftmanship. A must place to visit!

Saksun Church

Reviewed By 355stefang - Brussels, Belgium

This entire area - the church, the tiny village with the grass-covered roofs, the large bay, the waterfalls, etc. - make this place so picture-postcard perfect. While there we did the hike that starts in Saksun and finished in Tjørnuvík (Tjørnuvík also being an incredible place with a beautiful beach) and we hiked back. For really superb views, do the very first bit of the hike that takes you to the top so you can overlook Saksun and the bay from on high. In Saksun there is a car park and there are toilets (free). Also, a mile or so away, there is another car park and you can walk out to the bay itself via the beach, all the way to where the bay dumps into the ocean. Be aware of the tides - high tide and it'll be impossible to do this. Check the tide timetables online, though it's also posted at the entrance gate where you have to pay about $10 per person, which in my opinion is a rip-off (and you MUST pay, as there is no way around the gate and the surrounding fence appeared electrified and there are video monitoring cameras), but then again how often are you in the Faroes? Might as well pay, though I'm pretty sure the owners don't need the cash, as is evident by the huge house, multiple cars, even more multiple 4x4 vehicles, etc. that you will walk by as you make your way to the bay - but I digress. Overall, a truly wonderful landscape. Enjoy!

Skansin Fortress

Reviewed By kr0elle - Amman, Jordan

From Skansin you have a nice view onto business at the ferryport and Helsoy island (if weather permits). The climb up is easy and it is free of charge.
