| Spending time in the capital city of Denmark
is a study in time and evolution. As you look out across the expansive land and sandy coasts, you’ll be struck by the rich maritime history that fueled the commerce of the city. Spend a day at the whimsical Tivoli Gardens and you’ll feel like a kid again. Revel in the proximity of world class dining like Noma, the top restaurant in the world many times over. Hailed as a leader in modern design and innovation, Copenhagen has exhibited a strong spirit of innovation since it became the capital in the 15th century. |

| After spending just a day roaming Copenhagen, you’ll understand why Denmark is among the happiest countries in the world. Between a commitment to modernization and a deeply rooted reverence for our planet, the Danes have perfected a balance we all yearn for. Add in picturesque coasts with Crayola-worthy homes and the amusement park that inspired Disney Land, and you'll realize, there’s absolutely no place like this. |

Nyhavn
The Nyhavn canal has been popular among sailors and writers since it was completed in 1675. Today, with colorful houses dotting the shoreline, it is a quintessential representation of Danish landmarks. It’s also the perfect place to enjoy a sunny day at your outdoor table at one of the cafes. | | |

|
 | | | Tivoli Gardens
By day, take your pick of 26 rides (29 between Halloween and Christmas). When the sun sets, 120,000 incandescent light bulbs illuminate the park as symphony orchestras, ballet troupes and Danish rock bands take the stage. | | | |

| Rosenborg Slot
Originally the summer home of King Christian IV, today the castle’s 24 rooms are arranged chronologically to display furnishings and portraits of each monarch from the property’s original resident to Frederik VII. | | | |
| |  | | | | |
 | | | Den Blå Planet
Divided into climatic and geographic sections, the largest aquarium in northern Europe showcases the species of our seas beautifully. The most popular attraction is the 4-million-liter Ocean Tank, which is home to sharks, stingrays and other vibrant marine life. | | |

CHRISTIANIA
In the early 70s, this abandoned military campsite was taken over by hippies during the peak of the era. As a social experiment, the government allowed the community to exist as a self-governing, ecology-oriented commune for non-conformists. Today, they’ve adapted quite a bit — but you can still spot remnants of the original ideology. It’s worth a stroll to explore the DIY homes and beer gardens. | | | |
|
| |
| Here are a few top tips to keep in mind so you can fully immerse yourself in the delightful Danish culture — no matter how much time you spend exploring it. | | | | | |
| Danish is a Germanic language, like Norwegian and Swedish. A large majority of the city speaks English, but taking the effort to learn their language will be greatly appreciated — practice these phrases first! | | | | | |
| Copenhageners love their bikes. It’s estimated that almost half of trips to school or work are made on two wheels in the capital city. If you decide to get in the saddle, be sure to always ride in the bike lane, use hand signals and walk your bike through pedestrian crossings. Happy cycling! | |
| | | |
| Smørrebrød is an open-faced sandwich traditionally made using Danish bread (similar to rye) spread with a layer of mayonnaise and topped with fixings like pickled herring, boiled eggs, shrimp, roast beef and horseradish. And there’s an order to enjoying them — herring first, followed by other fish, then beef, saving cheese-topped ones for last. | |
| | | |
| For two decades, Copenhagen has been brewing up a craft beer scene focused on great beers best enjoyed in pleasant settings like beer gardens and gastropubs. You’ll find breweries using both traditional Nordic methods and unexpected global ingredients. Stop by Nørrebro, which opened in 2003 and has been instrumental in kickstarting the Danish craft beer revolution. | |
