5 good reasons to go to Copenhagen

The ultimate cycling city

Denmark’s capital, Copenhagen is one of the happiest countries in the world. It just radiates joy! Do it like the Danish during your time in Copenhagen! Here, one of life’s simple pleasures comes from cycling around the city. As you ride, you’ll see the canals, botanic gardens, arty districts, fair trade shops and organic restaurants.

Meet the Little Mermaid

When you visit the city, you must see the capital’s famous statue: The Little Mermaid. Head for the fortress to meet Hans Christian Andersen’s famous character! The half-woman, half-fish statue greets travellers arriving by boat. It may not be huge, but it’s definitely worth a look.

The city’s castles

If it's castles you're after, you're in luck! Copenhagen has four in total. Rosenborg Palace and Amelienborg Castle are open to the public, where you can visit the royal living quarters and see the crown jewels. Christiansborg Palace is now the seat of the Danish Parliament. Frederiksberg Palace, meanwhile, is closed to the public but offers beautiful gardens.

Flâner au Superkilen Park

In the heart of the cosmopolitan district of Nørrebro, discover the very graphic Superkilen Park. An ideal place for children, with many places to play, rest and share good times. The innovation and the atypical character of this park reside in the particular layout of the space, and the cohabitation of urban furniture from a multitude of countries.

Culture and history

A breathtaking church

The Church of Our Saviour was built at the end of the 17th century. Its spire pierces the sky above Copenhagen, while its Baroque interior is subtle but still beautiful. Its sculptures, altar and organ are incredible. The icing on the cake is undeniably the black and gold twisted spire. Climb (with difficulty) to the top and admire the stunning views of the city.

Stargazing at the Round Tower

The Round Tower or Rundetårn was also built in the 17th century and is now a working astronomical observatory. A library and church were set up inside the tower, but could only be accessed using a spiral ramp, which leads to all the individual rooms in the Round Tower. It’s worth knowing that the very top of the building offers unrivalled panoramic views of Copenhagen.

Freetown Christiania

Christiania is much more than a district of Copenhagen; it’s a free town in itself. In 1971, a group of hippies took over a former military base. Since then, inhabitants of Christiania have maintained that the area is a town in its own right, separate from Copenhagen. Here, you enter a completely different world, one that’s chilled, alternative and creative. A very welcome break!

Outings

A wild visit to Tivoli

Enjoy the magic of Tivoli Gardens! Adults and children alike will adore this beautiful theme park, which was opened back in 1843. You’ll get shivers down your spine, especially on the Star Flyer, one of the world’s tallest swing rides. Although the park is only open between April and September, it does open for Halloween and Christmas.

Torvehallerne market

The local produce on sale at Torvehallerne market is a real treat to behold. A stroll through the two glass and steel halls filled with stalls displaying the best of Danish cuisine is enough to tempt anyone's taste buds. And there are plenty of tables for sitting down for a quick bite to eat. The hardest part is choosing from all the mouthwatering options!

Gastronomy

Smørrebrød, a traditional Danish snack

Why not treat yourself to a smørrebrød? Smørrebrød is a type of open sandwich that’s sure to quell any hunger pangs. Slices of buttered rye bread are topped with all sorts of ingredients: salmon, smoked kippers, cheese, salad, cold meats and more. The Danes mostly eat them for lunch.

Flødeboller, a sweet treat from the North

Flødeboller are traditional Danish teacakes. The classic Flødeboller consists of a small meringue covered in chocolate and topped with buttercream. But the kind of flødeboller you find more commonly today are made with a biscuit base, which is covered in Italian meringue with a marshmallow consistency.
