We are now
in the Kingdom of Denmark. I am a bit sad because our journey is almost coming
to an end.
I have to
say that Denmark is a very beautiful country. Wherever you are, the coastline
is not far from you. Denmark consists of more than 400 islands and also the
Faroes and Greenland. Only 72 of those islands are inhabited.
Bridges
connect the larger islands to each other and you can reach the smaller islands
by ferry or small aircrafts.
The
coastlines of Denmark are absolutely wonderful. I love to stroll on the beaches
and watch the high cliffs.
Because we
are in the northern of Europe, temperatures are not very high.
The nature
in Denmark is fascinating. There are three national parks in the country and if
you are up for an adventure, you can go camping in the wild. You can still see
the untouched forests and some rare animal species.
If you love
cycling, Denmark is the best place to go. You will find more than 12,000km
cycle-routes.
The famous
statue in Denmark is The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen. The statue is based on
the fairytale of the little mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen. In spite of the
popularity of the tourists, the statue is mostly the target of protests and
vandalism.
Grundtvig’s Church is one of the weirdest churches I
have ever seen in my life. The church is located in Copenhagen and is a rare
example of the expressionism. When I first saw this, I did not realise it was a
church!
Not far from the German border, you can find some
reconstructed Viking houses and when you have a closer look, they seem very
small.
We are now going to the last country of our
travelling route. I am looking forward to going to Norway.
