    The Dancing House looks cool, a bit goofy too but it's different

    The Dancing House

    Very interesting looking building, reminds me of some places I forgot to nominate!

    Charles Bridge, it's a beautiful bridge, although you'd need to be up very early on a midweek morning in the depths of winter to get it as quiet as that photo.

    This is Denmark cheating a little bit I think (and there's probably places in Greenland that would wipe all these out too)

    Klaksvík is a stunning setting, but maybe an entire town is a bit big to be a landmark.

    So I'll go with the Mulafossur, the waterfall that drops straight into the Atlantic. Lovely and different at the same time.

    Woah, they are impressive.

    Might be the photo, but I think I'll vote for

    Klaksvik (Faroe Islands)


    Just think it's incredible looking

    Just wow!
    Faroe islands, I had no idea.....

    My vote goes to Klaksvik, because it has natural beauty alongside the man made world

    Never heard of any of these, but going solely on the photos provided, Leitisvatn gets my vote..... looks incredible! Mind you, so do most of them....

    We very nearly sailed to the Faroes a few years ago - and I'm regretting even more now that we never got it together.

    Klaksvik- because I like how busy the village is amongst the mountains. Nice combination of nature & convenience there ha

    I will go for Mulafossur. Ben Bulben but closer to the sea.

    Leitisvatn.

    I like how it is adjacent to the sea but at a higher level.

    Leitisvatn (Faroe Islands) beautiful and unusual with that lake so close to the sea.

    Leitisvatn for me.

    Dont know any of these but this one stood out most. Like an elevated lake looks amazing.

    First thing to note is that only the Faroe Islands got voted for here, nothing from Denmark proper. Secondly, it's our first deadlock of the competition... Tiebreaker time!
