Imagine Peace Tower in Reykjavik

You're standing at the Imagine Peace Tower on Viðey, an island in Kollafjörður Bay just outside Reykjavík. In Icelandic it's called Friðarsúlan, the peace column. It's a memorial to John Lennon, created by his widow, Yoko Ono. Start with the white stone monument in front of you. The words "Imagine Peace" are carved into it in twenty-four languages. See if you can spot your own. The words point back to Lennon's campaign for peace and to his 1971 song Imagine.
