Boasting stunning modern architecture, world-class restaurants and cutting edge design, Copenhagen has much to offer visitors.
Canals, lakes and the sea form the backdrop to modern Copenhagen and are a reminder of the city’s heritage as a major Baltic port.
Despite being the largest city in Scandinavia, Copenhagen nevertheless retains a disarmingly provincial, small-town atmosphere. Gabled houses, narrow streets and delicate spires add it its appeal. Copenhagen is also Europe’s greenest – much of the centre is reserved for pedestrians, strict anti-pollution laws are enforced and bikes often outnumber cars on the streets. Green spaces (including the world-famous Tivoli) abound, while, in the summer, locals throng to pavement cafés and restaurants.
