Tivoli Gardens is the world’s oldest theme park, if you’re not in the mood to get on a rollercoaster or carousel it’s an unforgettable place to roam with its romantic 19th-century representations of the Orient.
It’s among the largest pedestrian malls in the world that runs on and on, and whether you’re up for high-street or high-end shopping the chances are you’ll find what you’re looking for here.
Nyhavn
New Harbour in English, this historic waterfront area is next to a 17th-century canal, on both sides are tall painted houses dating to the 1600s, that now house bars, restaurants and cafes with outdoor seating.
Botanical Garden Christiania
Nationalmuseet
These gardens are valued as much for their botanical wealth as the majestic iron and glass structures that house them. In all there are more than 13,000 plant species on display at the garden.
It’s a commune that was established in 1971 on the back of the counter culture movement. Described best as a peaceful park, with historic army warehouses and barracks taken over by artists’ studios, organic shops, restaurants and music venues. Copenhagen’s National Museum is the sort of attraction in which you could lose hours without realising.
Copenhagen Pub Crawl
A guided tour to enjoy the nightlife. From cozy pubs and trendy cosmopolitan bars to wild nightclubs — Copenhagen has it all.
