Imagine Peace Tower

The Imagine Peace Tower is a glowing light installation by Yoko Ono on Viðey Island, visible from Reykjavík. Lit annually from October 9 to December 8 and on select dates, its powerful beam honors John Lennon and promotes a message of peace. Visitors come for the serene island setting, panoramic views over Faxaflói Bay, and the contemplative atmosphere. Access is by ferry; evening trips offer the best experience when the tower is illuminated. Ideal for travelers interested in contemporary art, music history, and reflective spaces rather than traditional sightseeing.
