Straight out of a fairytale. Saksun, Faroe Islands, Denmark

Nestled in a picturesque valley next to a lagoon flanked by mountains, Saksun is a small, remote village famous for its stunning vistas. It is situated on the coast of Streymoy in the Faroe Islands and is home to its iconic houses with turf roofs and a tiny population of fewer than 15 people. In fact, there are more waterfalls in Saksun than people living there.
