Things to do in Copenhagen

Nyhavn, Denmark is a landmark attraction in Copenhagen. It is an artificial canal built between 1669 and 1673. The canal is lined with colorful townhouses from the 17th and 18th centuries, which are rich in color and form a unique landscape. Andersen once lived here and created many classic fairy tales, adding cultural heritage to it. You can stroll and take a boat tour here to experience the rich Nordic style and cozy atmosphere.

Stunning gardens and flowers. Beautiful scenery. Amongst rides good choice of food. Able to leave and return providing wrist is stamped. Not too long queues. Open till 10pm as Tiivoli lights up.

On the way to see the Little Mermaid, I happened to catch the changing of guards at the gate of Amalienborg. Since we couldn't enter, we just watched the changing of guards for a while. The soldiers marched in unison, and the unique ceremony looked quite interesting, attracting many tourists to stop and watch.

The park is the best part of the castle. It’s stunning with lots of trees and flowers. To enter the castle, you need to buy a ticket stick to time. So it’s best to book online first. It takes about 1h to see inside of the castle.

I visited the Little Mermaid statue in Denmark on a solo trip during winter. The cold breeze from the sea and the quiet atmosphere made the experience feel even more magical. The statue itself is smaller than I expected, but its delicate expression and connection to Andersen’s fairytale give it a unique charm. Since it was off-season, there weren’t many tourists, which allowed me to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. It’s a simple yet iconic landmark worth seeing at least once.

It was good to see the town from the canal. The sound system expanded so well about the buildings and history of Copenhagen. The inside seat was warm but couldn't see properly because of the clouded window. The outside seat was good to see the seanery but it was very cold.

Beautiful palace with pretty painted ceilings. Nicely decorated. Admired the architecture and decor.

Castle Island is also a very good place to go. The castles are all historical heritages and there are quite a lot of them. This castle is also an ancient heritage of Denmark. Many of them are well preserved and have a sense of age.

The Gefion Fountain, like the Little Mermaid, is a landmark statue in Copenhagen. It is a mythological statue of a goddess leading four cows. It is not special in terms of its design, but there are many attractions around it that you can visit together.

It is a fairy tale country with many castles. I had a good impression of Copenhagen in just two days. Although it was late autumn, it was not as cold as I imagined in the Nordic countries. The sun was warm and the people were very enthusiastic. It felt better than Norway.
