Tjernin's green shores are lined with painted houses, rows of trees, shrubs and flower beds to relax in the warmer months or ice skate in winter. On the north shore is the city hall and a winding monument to the unknown bureaucrat. The lake is also just steps away from the Supreme Court, the National Theater and many museums such as the Living Art Museum, Iceland's National Gallery and the National Museum.
