Búðir, located in the Snæfellsbær municipality on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in Iceland, is renowned for its picturesque black wooden church, Búðakirkja, which stands in stark contrast against the surrounding lava fields and rugged coastline. This small and tranquil settlement is part of a larger nature reserve, offering stunning views of the Snæfellsjökull glacier and dramatic landscapes that are ideal for photography and nature walks. The area also features golden sand beaches, rare in Iceland, and a rich history dating back to its days as a bustling trading post in the 19th century.
