Attractions

As a blend of the old and new world, Copenhagen feels like equal parts fairy tale city and equal parts booming metropolis.

Artists and culture-seekers will enjoy the Danish National Gallery for works by some of the modern greats, while Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek is home to some classics. Other recommended art museums are the Ordrupgaard and the Arken Museum of Modern Art.

For iconic Copenhagen sights, the Rundetårn should be at the top of your list as it offers a great view of the city. Work your way up the Church of Our Saviour or check out Christiania, home of the iconic brightly-colored buildings you see in most pictures of Copenhagen.

History nerds will love paying visit to the palaces of Amalienborg, where you can see the change of guards at noon. Lastly, don’t miss the Rosenborg Palace and King’s Garden, which act as a royal museum and home of the crown jewels.
