Copenhagen: Wonderful for so many reasons!


Last time but one, we have visited a city. We were in Denmark. The country did not attract my attention. Next to that I also did not knew a lot about it. So which city do we have to choose than? We saw no other idea than g
oing to Copenhagen, the famous capital of Denmark.


I will tell you how we experienced the people and the tourism over there.



Copenhagen has a lot of parks and cemeteries. Besides the city has also a lot of attractions, museums, buildings, shopping places, and so on. The most famous thing of Copenhagen is  the statue of the little mermaid.
Something you can also do is buying a map, within which stands a lot of daytrips. This is always nice to do.


There is a large number of restaurants and bars. Even the nightclubs you find over there, they are open until 5 or 6 in the morning.


We could easily relocate ourselves, by the large network of transport. You can take the metro or the S-train. We also made use of the Intercity and the Express trains. We also hired a bike, because it is for certain that this city is known as one of the most bicycle-friendly cities in the world.
You even have toll-free motorways. This economizes already a lot of money.

Maybe good to know: Copenhagen is one of the most environmentally friendly cities.

The city dwellers speak Danish of course, but they understand English as well. That is quite handy, because none of us speak Danish and English is the language we speak the best, after our mother‑tongue. 


We found the people really friendly and helpful. Denmark is called the country of “the happiest people in the world”, and I have to admit that all the people over there seem to be happy.


Unfortunately we did not go a few weeks later. From the 17th until the 19th May there will be carnival. It is one of the major events of the year. I really regret we could not have experienced it. But you cannot want everything in life. See you one more time and then… then I will tell you about Norway.
