The 49 best photo spots in Copenhagen

A very pleasant and lively area. A boat tour is recommended. You can see many places in an hour. I think there are two boat tours. One is very cheap. You should ask about the difference and choose accordingly.

Visited Nyhavn over the weekend and absolutely loved it! 🌈 The colorful houses along the canal look stunning, especially on a sunny day ☀️. Tip: for the best photo, click from the opposite side of the canal 📸. Lined with cozy cafes and restaurants, it’s a perfect place to relax, enjoy a meal, and soak in the cheerful Copenhagen vibes 🇩🇰.

Nice view to take pictures. Both side of the canal has dozens of shops to hang out and buy souvenirs. All are expensive then what is priced outside of this zone. There is a big obnoxious ship in the canal and it is hard to take a nice reflective photo with the colorful buildings. That is why I personally like the one in Trondheim Norway.

Lively waterfront with many restaurants! I love the atmosphere but it was very crowded at the same time. We had a Thai food at Charm restaurant close by for dinner and the ice cream for dessert just across the road from Vaffelbageren Nyhavn. It's definitely a lovely place to walk around and soak up the vibe!

It's a must see and very photographic landmark area. There are numerous restaurants and small shops. You catch a canal tour here as well. Don't forget to visit the shop where Hans Christian Anderson once lived.

If you want to see only one place in Copenhagen, it should be definitely Nyhavn. Fabulous and lovely! Full of nice and cozy cafe and restaurant around it.

Nyhavn is so colorful and charming! Loved walking around, checking out the boats, enjoying the cute cafés, and of course taking tons of photos hehe

An excellent park although off to a skeptical start when I saw the first ride we went on had a member of staff on to "pull the brake". Lots of rides to suit all with a fair number of "tummy turners". Queues were small and the facilities such as food and toilets were at a good standard. We used the Copenhagen card to get in but you need to pay extra for the rides. Was quite cold when we were there so dress appropriately. The teenage kids enjoyed it so that's a thumbs up !

Absolutely fantastic at Christmas! So beautiful love the trees the rides and all the shops. It’s expensive to visit at £28 per person but you can go in the day and get a re entry stamp And come back in the evening to see it all lit up. Also I saw families who took a picnic with them. This is a great idea as it’s a beautiful place to have a picnic and a glass of wine in the gardens. The lake is stunning at night. It gets very busy.

Its ok. If you're into food? Then great there's a lot of restaurants. There's only one roller-coaster and a few other attractions. Its expensive especially since all we wanted to do was look at the Christmas decorations. It looks amazing at night all lit up but still not worth $30 dollars.

Visited mid November, weather was pleasant during the hours of 5pm-8pm Fair amount of people about but not crowded and easy to navigate. Christmas themed throughout giving it that magic touch for this time of season. Much like the rest of Copenhagen nothing is cheap and being at the theme park its most likely a little bit more

Tivoli Gardens was at the very top of my list when we visited Copenhagen; and it honestly exceeded every expectation. We visited in early September during the Flower Festival and the whole place felt absolutely beautiful with bursts of colour everywhere. Tivoli first opened in 1843 which is wild to think about, and you can really feel that old world charm as soon as you walk in. There’s a lovely little story that Walt Disney visited Tivoli and was so inspired by its atmosphere and attention to detail that it helped inspire Disneyland; when you’re inside, that makes complete sense. We ended up spending nearly the entire day here; wandering through the gardens, listening to jazz bands play, popping into the little Christmas shops (yes, even in September), admiring the flower competition winners and going on a few of the rides. At one point I turned to my husband and said, “I feel like a kid again.” There was something so nostalgic and joyful about it, like stepping back into the magic of childhood. There are plenty of places to eat inside Tivoli depending on what you feel like; everything from quick bites and coffee to full sit down restaurants and even the beautiful Nimb Hotel right in the middle of it all. The food court is great if you want something casual and fast before exploring more. I also loved how different the park feels as the day turns into evening; during the day it’s lush and garden like, and then at night all the twinkle lights come on and it feels dreamy and romantic. Tivoli is open in different seasons throughout the year including Halloween and Christmas; I heard that November and December are extra special because Tivoli transforms into a Christmas wonderland with decorations, lights, markets and a completely different festive atmosphere. I would honestly love to go back in December just to experience that version of the park. Opening hours change depending on the season but it stays open late enough that you don’t need to rush. My biggest tip is to give yourself enough time. This isn’t the kind of place you speed through; it’s somewhere you stroll, snack, listen to music, ride the rides and just enjoy being there. Tivoli was one of the most memorable experiences of our Copenhagen trip; if you’re visiting the city, this is a must. It’s truly one of those rare places that makes you feel happy, light and a little bit enchanted.

Excellent theme park. We visited as decorated and themed for Christmas Was surprisingly a lot better than anticipated. Prices for ultimate tickets purchased on Get your Guide . Around £45 each . Great value. Lots to see and do. Food prices are similar to those around the city

This is one of the oldest amusement park in the world but it is well maintained. All the decoration and pop up events are to the point. Well decorated for the Halloween 🎃! ++ point: the food at the foodcourt is very tasty and wide range of selection.

Christiansborg Palace is a historic palace in Copenhagen, Denmark, that now houses the country's three branches of government: the Parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Ministry of State. Once a royal residence, it is open to the public and features attractions like the Royal Reception Rooms, the Royal Stables, and a viewing tower with panoramic city views. Visitors can also explore the underground ruins of earlier castles that stood on the site.

The grand, grandeur and wonderful castle in the heart of Copenhagen. What a splendid way the castle is decorated and preserved and still active. Such display of wealth is dazzling. They have visuals and videos of the historical aspect of the castle. Interesting to go through them and better for kids to enhance their knowledge.

Visiting Christiansborg Palace was one of the highlights of my time in Copenhagen. The palace itself is a beautiful blend of history and functionality, serving as a working government building while also offering visitors a chance to explore royal reception rooms, historic halls, and underground ruins. Walking through the palace felt like stepping through layers of Danish history, where modern governance and royal tradition exist side by side. The climb to the top of the tower was absolutely worth it. The viewing platform offered one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the city. From above, I could see the colorful rooftops, winding canals, and the orderly beauty of Copenhagen stretching in every direction. The view was especially impressive because it felt peaceful and expansive, giving a sense of the city’s balance between tradition, water, and urban life. Christiansborg is a must-see for anyone who wants both rich history and a stunning perspective of Copenhagen from above. It is a perfect combination of cultural depth and unforgettable views.

Christiansborg Palace is a unique and fascinating destination in Copenhagen, blending royal splendor with the seat of modern democracy. It’s one of the only buildings in the world that houses all three branches of a country’s government — the Danish Parliament, Supreme Court, and Prime Minister’s Office — all within a former royal palace. That alone makes it worth visiting. Architecturally, Christiansborg is an imposing and elegant structure built in Neo-Baroque style with touches of Neo-Classicism, especially visible in its formal reception halls. The current palace is actually the third iteration — previous versions were destroyed by fire in 1794 and again in 1884. What you see today is the result of a rebuild completed in the early 20th century, blending old grandeur with modern sensibilities. The tall central tower is the highest in Copenhagen and offers free public access with panoramic city views. Inside, the Royal Reception Rooms are a highlight, especially the Great Hall with its striking modern tapestries depicting Danish history, designed by artist Bjørn Nørgaard. The Queen still uses these rooms for official state functions, adding a sense of living history to the experience. You can also explore the Royal Stables, the Royal Kitchen, and the underground ruins, where remnants of the medieval Bishop’s Castle and earlier palaces have been preserved. In short, Christiansborg may not have the romantic fairy-tale look of some other castles, but it offers something deeper — a powerful connection between Denmark’s royal past and its modern democracy. A rewarding and educational visit, especially for those interested in history, architecture, and politics.

I visit Christiansborg all the time as a local guide, and it’s one of those places that keeps revealing new layers. The palace sits on top of centuries of history. In the 1100s, Bishop Absalon built the first fortress here, and the remains of that medieval castle are still visible in the underground ruins. It’s a pretty wild feeling to walk below the modern parliament and stand inside what used to be Copenhagen’s very first stronghold. On my tours, I often see the royal horses in the courtyard, which always adds a bit of magic. A couple of tips if you go: ride the elevator up to the tower for one of the best panoramic free views in the city, and book a meal at Restaurant Tårnet if you have time. It’s cosy, atmospheric and a fun contrast to the political building beneath you. The museums inside the palace are also worth exploring. The royal reception rooms and the ruins under the building give you a much deeper sense of Denmark’s royal and political history. Overall, Christiansborg is one of Copenhagen’s most iconic landmarks and a must-visit if you want to understand the city properly.

One of the most grand and beautiful castle I've ever been to. A must see if you are in Copenhagen! Buy the ticket and check out the beautiful reception area!

Fun & Free: Ride up the Tower (Tårnet) for great city views. ​Animals: Visit the Royal Stables to see the horses. ​Adventure: Explore the underground Ruins of old castles. ​Visuals: See the massive, colorful Tapestries in the Great Hall. Children 0-17 years free entrance.

Rosenborg Castle is a historic site in central Copenhagen, best known for housing the Danish Crown Jewels and Royal Regalia. The rooms are well-preserved and give a good overview of Denmark’s royal history. The Treasury in the basement is a highlight. The surrounding King’s Garden is open to the public and great for a walk. Worth a visit if you're interested in history or culture. Buy tickets in advance to avoid lines.

Rosenborg Castle is a wonderful place to visit: full of history, charm, and beautifully preserved treasures. The interiors and royal collections are fascinating. However, the exhibition lighting could be improved, as some areas were quite dim and it was difficult to see certain displays clearly. Overall, still a great experience and definitely worth visiting!

Well truely a marvel of the history. Absolutely loved the aura of the castle and its surroundings. There is big park and lake in front of the castle. It is easy to get to the place, thanks to the well connected public transport systems. The architecture of the castle is something that is worth mentioning. I would recommend to read and learn about the history of the palace before visiting it so that you can just relive the past and get a feel of the same. If you are planning to go in a weekend, be prepared to wait for sometime as there would be rush.

Not wheel chair accessible. My first ever Royal Castle. Be prepared for low light conditions. The history is right up and close as I have ever been in a museum setting. So respect the access. I loved looking at all the fine quality work completed by the period artisans and amazing quality especially all the inlay works in wood, tile & gems. Stunning if you live feeling the history. The Royal Treasury is exceptional and shows what was valued and when. Even in October when I went the Gardens were blooming.

Beautiful and well-kept heritage. I tried to visit the day after the Copenhagen half-marathon, but I didn't have time to get tickets online so that I couldn't get inside. I recommend buying tickets in advance. However, upon walking around, I can say that this is one of the most beautiful castles I have seen recently, compared to what I saw in England.

Cool old castle. Lots of history. Some interesting stuff that you don't normally see in a castle like a farting chair and a king's toilet. This is like the old and more castle-ish version of Danish aristocratic housing. For the real palace feel of the monarchy visit Christiansborg Palace. The royal family actually live in nearby Amelienborg.

Beautiful site and an easy walk from the waterfront. You can also peek at the King’s Gardens out back — immaculately kept, of course. The day pass is worth it for convenient access to the castle. Free lockers are a nice touch, and the guards with bayonets add a bit of royal drama. Inside, the halls are filled with art and artifacts — the grand hall with the thrones and lion statues is a standout. Don’t miss the Crown Jewels in the walk-in vault downstairs, complete with a step ladder for the perfect view. A truly regal visit, well worth the stop.

Absolutely breathtaking experience! The Church of Our Saviour is not only a beautiful piece of architecture, but also offers one of the very best views of Copenhagen. The spiral staircase up the tower is a little challenging, but that only makes reaching the top more rewarding. Standing outside on the winding staircase with the city right beneath your feet feels magical. You can see all of Copenhagen – from the canals and colorful houses to the modern skyline. Totally worth the climb, and a must-visit spot if you want a unique perspective of the city!

Beautiful place! Climbing to the top and amdiring views of the city is one of the nicest experiences in Copenhagen. Important note - there is not only a lot of stairs to the top, but in some moments it's narrow and steep stairs. So it's not so easy to get there, but really worth to visit.

If you see one place for free in Copenhagen, see this church. It's spectacular! If you pay for one sight, pay for the ticket to climb the tower. The views are, quite simply, breathtaking. Outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The church is impressive! Did like it from the outside better than from the inside. There is a movie that is shown and it was disappointing that it was only in Danish. I mean with so many tourists please put English subtitles on. The tower is very impressive and the view real beautiful. But please don’t go up if you have vertigo as it is very high AND NARROW. I did expect some kind of platform on the top but the stairs just got more narrow and more narrow and ended at some point. A bit weird to be honest. For what it is I would say it’s not worth your money. If you have to pay please make it better and also the number of people should be less for one time slot. It’s quite hard to cross paths on those narrow and steep stairs. I do give it 4 stars as it is quite unique!

I visited only the tower... What a view - just make sure you don't suffer from vertigo and can move agile... The view is spectacular but it's really narrow up there. You might wanna go for sunset. We didn't have wind when I was there but I assume once there is... It's not very hygge...

The Church of Our Saviour is a stunning Baroque landmark from the 17th century. Its most famous feature is the spiral tower with an external staircase, offering breathtaking views over Copenhagen. Inside, you’ll find a beautiful altar and an impressive organ. At 12:00, there is a live organ performance that lasts for about 30 minutes, creating a truly unique atmosphere. A must-visit for history, architecture, and the unforgettable experience of climbing the spire.

Church of Our Saviour – Copenhagen A stunning baroque church with one of the best panoramic views in Copenhagen. The highlight is the climb to the top via a unique external spiral staircase—fun and adventurous, but not for the faint-hearted. With over 400 steps, it’s a bit of a workout, and the narrow, winding paths can be challenging for anyone with vertigo. Entry costs €8, and it's well worth it for the view alone.

I had the pleasure of visiting this magnificent palace, and it truly felt like stepping back in time into a world of royalty. The interiors are grand and beautifully preserved, with multiple sections showcasing how the royals once lived. From the opulent living quarters and lavish dining halls to the intricately designed courtyards, every corner tells a story of elegance and power. What stood out to me most was the attention to detail—exquisite furniture, ornate chandeliers, and priceless artifacts that reflect a royal lifestyle at its peak. The guided displays made it easy to understand the history and appreciate the traditions behind each room. Walking through the palace, I could almost imagine the grandeur of royal gatherings and ceremonies that once filled these halls. Overall, it’s a place where history and beauty come together perfectly. If you want to experience the charm of a royal lifestyle, this palace is a must-visit.

We came here with the intention of observing the Changing of the Guards. It starts at 12, so try to be there at 11:30 for a better stand spot. Because lots and lots of people come to see this. Bring hat and sunglasses during summer season. If you are interested in these come otherwise enjoy the castle. You have to buy tickets for the castle and check timing.

Truely amazing.. i had visited Amelienborg palace with my family in the month of May.. just was spell bound by the beauty and architectural marvel of the same. The whole palace was worth watching again and again from each and every angle. As we had visited on a weekend there was really a big crowd which really added to the enrichment of the ambience.. We had planned to reach there to watch the famous change of guard event. It was so awesome.. even though it is something that happens on a daily basis but the accuracy and precision of the event is something to adore for.. From accessibility perspective we have the well established punlic transportation of Copenhagen.. A must watch if you are visiting Copenhagen..

Go at 11:30am to get a good view of the changing of the guard. They push everyone back behind the black lines of the quad closest to the brown doors/left of the entry pillars if you want a good view, but the guards do a march around the while Palace eventually. We also saw the marching band through the town which was cool!

Amalienborg Palace square, Copenhagen, Denmark. This complex has four elegant, Rococo style palaces that surround an octagonal central courtyard. It is close to the Nyhavn Harbour and the Marble Church. Some parts of the complex like the Amalienborg Museum or the Christian VIII's Palace, are open to public (unfortunately, due to lack of time, we could not get into the museum). The daily change of Royal guard ceremony also takes place in the square. The central figure of the square is a large bronze statue of King Frederick V, unveiled in 1771, symbolizing the complete power of the king. Frederik's Church or Marble Church, with its copper green dome serves as the official residence of the Danish Royal family. It lies in alignment with the main Palace and the Copenhagen Opera House. The architectural details of these buildings are clear, well maintained and a wonderful sight to behold. One can actually walk around the square and revel the beauty of these structures, our group did just that during the month of July 2025.

Beautiful space with a majestic architectures! These majors landscapes can be seen just around the square; Frederick Kirke, Aleksander Nevskij Kirke, Det Kongelige Teater Operaen. Just a great space to walk around and admire the landscape 🏛️🕌⛪🕍🛕

If you’re in Copenhagen, Amalienborg is a must-visit. This beautiful palace showcases the rich history, details, and artifacts of the Danish royal family. One of the highlights is the changing of the guard, which takes place daily at 12 pm and is a wonderful experience to witness. There’s no entry fee. Walk around the palace square,since the surroundings are equally charming.

We had such a great time exploring this botanical garden. What I love most is that the entrance is free if you don’t plan to go inside the glasshouse, which makes it very accessible for everyone to enjoy. The plant biodiversity is truly impressive — from peaceful water lilies and lush greenery to carefully designed rock gardens and shaded woodland paths. Every corner feels thoughtfully maintained, and you can really sense the effort to create an environment where both plants and wildlife thrive. The pond areas are full of life, with turtles, koi fish, and birds adding so much character to the place. I even spotted a magpie and a ladybird up close, which made the visit feel even more connected to nature. It’s not just a place to see plants, but a living, breathing ecosystem where you can slow down and appreciate biodiversity in action. If you’re tired of walking in the city and need a break, this is a great place to recharge. The walking paths are varied — some open and sunny, others shaded and tranquil. It feels like you’re moving through different little worlds within one garden. I especially enjoyed the mix of open views with the sky reflected in the water and more intimate trails lined with rocks and trees. Overall, this is a beautiful spot to spend a few hours, whether you’re here for a calm walk, photography, or just to reconnect with nature. Highly recommended if you’re in the area!

Copenhagen's Botanical Garden (Botanisk Have) is an absolute gem for anyone seeking a delightful and pretty stroll in the heart of the city. It's a truly restorative oasis, perfect for a leisurely walk amidst a stunning array of plant life. You can wander along charming pathways, discovering different themed sections like the rock gardens or the serene lake with its picturesque stone bridge.

A lovely botanical garden, filled with exotic plants and fun walks. The palm house was being renovated when we went, which was pretty cool to look at, they had a big mishmash of scaffolding and lights trying to keep the plants alive (not pictured, sorry). The signage to find your way around the construction wasn't fantastic, getting to glasshouse 2 wasn't as straightforward as it should have been. The rest of the glass houses are excellent, with a good level of information on what's going on there, much better than that silly Glyptotek. I would have liked more context, there were a few information panels that foreshadowed interesting facts, but didn't delve deeper. It felt like a place catering both extremes, people who want to look at pretty plants, and actually botanists, but it'd be nice if it had a bit more information throughout the entire garden for the people in between.. Shout out to the rock garden, of course, it's absolutely massive and got some cracking plants. Also, we went in October, with the season turning, the park section was begining to die back, still lots of nice things to see though. I'd definitely want to visit in summer. Long story short: lovely plants, give me more plant facts.

My visit to the Botanical Garden was one of the highlights of my 4 days in Copenhagen. The two (long ago man-made)mountains of hundres of species were amazing...I came back twice to walk through this beautiful assimilation/integration of plants.

The Botanical Garden in Copenhagen is a peaceful and beautifully maintained green escape in the heart of the city. Right at the entrance there’s a small shop where you can buy seed packets for growing various flowers, as well as peppers, tomatoes, and more. This time I didn’t visit the indoor greenhouse area, but I’d definitely love to explore it during my next visit. A wonderful spot for nature lovers and anyone looking to unwind.

The Botanical Garden in Copenhagen felt like a hidden pocket of peace right in the middle of the city. As soon as you step inside, you notice how calm and green it is, even though you’re still in the center. The paths wind beautifully through the garden, and you keep discovering new plants and flowers along the way. I really enjoyed just sitting on a bench for a while and taking it all in. It can get a bit busier on weekends, but the atmosphere stays relaxed. If you’re looking for a little escape from the city buzz, this is the perfect spot.

Absolutely lovely! One of the best Alpine gardens I’ve ever seen. There are over 1000 species of rhododendrons and the variety of flowers/plants is just incredible. If I want to compare, It’s much more impressive than the Sydney Royal Botanical Gardens. Incredible design and maintenance. Kudos!

A park with a playground and exercise equipment, skater areas, and a cycle path. There is also lots of graffiti and a few sculptures. Designed to promote tolerance and unity between local people and immigrants. It was fun to visit, but it had a bit of a run-down feeling to the area. The area is accessible to people who use a wheelchair, but there was not any specialist play equipment for disabled people to use.

as a tourist not much to here honestly. Seems to be a popular spot for locals though. seems like the the concept behind is to promote international ties and the place embraces attributes of other cultures in different forms

Superkilen is a very different park in Copenhagen, it showcases the diversity of Nørrebro, with design elements and objects from all over the world. You’ll find everything from Moroccan fountains to Thai swings and even a neon sign from Russia. The space is divided into three areas: the Red Square (great for skating and people-watching), the Black Market (more relaxed, with chess tables and benches), and the Green Park (for picnics and play).Perfect for photos, meeting locals, or just taking a walk through global culture, all in one neighborhood. If you’re visiting Copenhagen, this is definitely worth the stop.

This is the most creative park I’ve ever seen. Its unique and unusual appearance, along with the futuristic design, really appeals to young people. I truly admire the kind of person who could come up with something like this. I absolutely love this kind of cool, chic design. The photos came out absolutely stunning!

Nørrebro Park is a hidden gem in Copenhagen! Visit during cherry blossom season for a magical experience-soft pink petals, peaceful walking paths, and vibrant area. Perfect for walk, photos, or just soaking in springtime beauty. A must-see for nature lovers and city explorers alike!

It’s a pretty cool park but considering the other in the city it’s above average. A lot of things to do for the kids and also some calisthenic spot. It’s a must visit if you are around Norrebro.

Was good wish it had a larger park for toddlers

Very popular shopping street. You find all international brands. But very few local shops

Shopping, eating and walking around strip. Walk and eat and do alot of window shopping for a day to yourself.

The street was very pretty, but packed with tourists.

Great street for decent shopping

Must visit in Copenhagen! Iconic, beautiful and one of Copenhagens signature walking streets!

Awesome street, full of vibes and good people

My fave shopping place so far in Copenhagen!

Combine your visit to the Little Mermaid with this Military Fort Visited on Thursday, 31st July 2025, after being dropped off to see the Little Mermaid Statue, I took the opportunity to visit this army barracks. Still an active army site, so the access was limited, but what you could see was wonderful and provided the opportunity to walk the moat mounds that surround the fort. Cycling isn't allowed, but it appears the site is not supervised.

I visited Kastellet in August and it quickly became one of my favorite places in Copenhagen. The fortress is beautifully preserved, with its colorful red and yellow buildings and the iconic Danish flag creating a picture-perfect setting. Walking along the star-shaped ramparts gave me great views of the city and the harbor, and I loved the calm, peaceful atmosphere despite being so close to the center. It’s the kind of place where you can take your time, enjoy the history, and relax in the green surroundings. A wonderful spot that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Copenhagen!

The Citadel is far more than just a tourist attraction and it is fascinating to watch tourists, the Danish military and members of the public coexist in the sprawling complex. Young cadets man both the entrances to manage car traffic but you can otherwise see joggers, curious tourists and other pedestrians walk freely in and out enjoying the pleasant sights and 360 degree views. It is well worth a visit and spending around an hour to check out the inner fortification as well as the battlements, as it is effectively a living museum.

The amazing fortress with a beautiful star shape! I love the water canel around the fortress ⭐🌅 It seems to be a working fortress as we can see the army personnel checking on the vantage point and the guard at the gate as well. The path is well maintained and tidy so look great for a walking and running spot!

Free entry and a beautiful view of the harbour of Copenhagen. There are lots of people running and walking. A quiet and peaceful area in the city.

This was a neat area we stumbled across after looking at the mermaid. I really enjoyed the windmill, and all the red buildings were really neat as well. No fees or entry cost to enter.

I was stunned by the care which had been taken for these old buildings and I loved dwelling over the old bastions... The windmill, the view, the cobblestones... They transfer you back in time. Simply recommended!

Visiting the Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen was a memorable experience. The sculpture itself is smaller than I expected, but it’s beautifully placed by the water and has a certain quiet charm. The surroundings are peaceful, with lovely views across the harbor, and it’s a nice spot for a walk. Even though it can get a bit crowded with tourists, it still feels special to see such an iconic landmark in person. A must-visit if you’re exploring Copenhagen!

The Little Mermaid – A Symbol of Copenhagen We visited the famous Little Mermaid statue, and while the statue itself is quite small, it’s definitely worth the visit. Nestled along the waterfront, the surroundings are absolutely beautiful, offering peaceful views and a scenic walk leading up to the site. The walk itself is part of the experience – calm, relaxing, and filled with lovely views of the harbour. Do keep in mind that it’s a popular attraction, so it can get quite crowded. If you're hoping for a quieter moment, consider visiting early in the morning or later in the evening. A charming and iconic stop on any Copenhagen itinerary.

Copenhagen in the Spring is a nice, relatively quiet port with mostly the usual features of European / Scandinavian ports. The only unique attraction is The Little Mermaid statue, small but with it's own history of abductions, kidnapping and beheadings. If you're lucky your guide will give you the local story of the Little Mermaid which is more of a Danish Tragedy, so beware of little ears who are enchanted by the Disney version. It isn't magical but it's interesting lore. Here are a few other shots of the city as there are ample and better pictures of the Mermaid than I could get under the lighting conditions.

The Little Mermaid bronze statue, located in Copenhagen, sits on a granite rock, on the water side of langeline promenade. It is 4.1 ft tall and weighs 175 kgs. The Statue was based on the fairy tale of Hans Christian Anderson and was unveiled to the public in 1913. However, it has now become a target for defacement, due to uncaring attitude of some people, despite attracting those tourist and visitors, who are smitten fairy tale lovers, ofcourse that includes me. I loved her quiet gaze, an unassuming sureness of her existence to continue.

I visited the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen around dusk since it gets dark early this time of year. It wasn’t crowded, which made it easy to take pictures. There were no tickets or anything like that, you just walk up to it. The statue itself was nice to see in person, though it felt a bit simple to me. Still, it was a fun stop and worth seeing while in the city.

it’s a very beautiful and symbolic statue as the sea wraps around it. around the mermaid there’s also a very nice park with amazing statues and church! there are a lot of people coming there for pictures so be prepared if you come in the afternoon!

Free activity - a little underwhelming to be honest, it’s also quite far out to the north of the city. If you on a tight schedule probably better to skip but if you have plenty of time & love the Hans Christian Andersen stories then pop past for a photo - there are actually some beautiful sights near the little mermaid which you can enjoy

Also known as the Marble Church, is one of Copenhagen’s most beautiful landmarks and absolutely worth a visit. Its massive dome dominates the skyline and is one of the largest in Europe, making it a striking sight both up close and from a distance. The interior is equally impressive, with stunning architecture, serene atmosphere, and a sense of grandeur that feels both welcoming and awe-inspiring. Visitors can also climb up to the dome on certain days, which is a highlight for those who enjoy city views. From the top, you get a unique perspective over Copenhagen, including Amalienborg Palace and the harbor area. Entry to the church itself is free, which makes it an easy stop to fit into any city itinerary. It’s good to check ahead for opening times and whether dome access is available during your visit, as it’s not open every day. The church is active, so be mindful if a service is in session. Overall, Frederik’s Church is a must-see for anyone interested in architecture, history, or simply enjoying one of the most iconic and peaceful spots in the city.

Just to the opposite of the Amalienborg castle, this church just matches up to it. The exterior of the mosque is so gigantic and massive looking that it still holds beauty and grandeur. Inside the church is very spacious and the dome makes it look even bigger. What an architectural marvel!

The Marble Church is always a highlight on my walks. I pass by it several times a week on my walk and ferry tour, and every time I’m reminded of how impressive it really is. The huge dome, the elegant details in the façade and the open space around the church create a calm and majestic atmosphere. Inside, the acoustics and the circular room are beautiful, and even guests who normally don’t pay much attention to architecture are usually quite impressed. It’s one of those places where Copenhagen feels both peaceful and grand at the same time. If you’re visiting the area around Amalienborg or Frederiksstaden, this is definitely a place you shouldn’t miss.

Frederik's Church (The Marble Church) is one of the most impressive landmarks in Copenhagen. Its massive dome and intricate interior design are truly mesmerizing. The peaceful atmosphere inside the church makes it a perfect place for reflection. A must-visit for anyone interested in history and architecture. The surrounding area is also great for photos!

Frederik’s Church, also known as The Marble Church, is one of the most beautiful landmarks in Copenhagen. Its impressive dome, inspired by St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, is the largest church dome in Scandinavia. The foundation stone was laid in 1749 by King Frederik V, but due to financial difficulties the construction took more than 100 years and was finally completed in 1894. The church is free to enter, and the interior is just as breathtaking as the outside, with stunning marble details and a peaceful atmosphere. If you have the chance, climb up to the dome for an amazing panoramic view of the city. A must-visit if you are in Copenhagen!

The dome of this church absolutely blew me away when I saw it in the distance from across the river. I just had to come and see it up close! It did not disappoint, with incredible sculptures surrounding the building, and the magnificence continuing as you go inside. This church is up there as one of the most amazing I’ve ever seen. One of the best gems of København!

The Fredrik Church is simply beautiful,. The architecture is stunning, with its striking baroque design and intricate details that immediately catch your eye. The atmosphere inside is calm, peaceful, and almost timeless, making it a perfect place to pause and reflect. The church stands proudly in the heart of Karlskrona and adds so much character to the square around it.

Totally worth the visit! It has a very cool architecture spiraling all the way to the top, ending with a rooftop deck, amazing views and also an observatory. It has some art installations inside too.

The round tower is a must see if you visit Copenhagen! It is Europe’s oldest observatory building and it offers breathtaking views of the city. There is an art gallery on one of the floors which has some interesting pieces

Great attraction right in the city center. The ticket costs around €8. The climb is easy, with very few steps, and the views from the top are beautiful — you can see the entire city from above. There’s also a small museum and a small art exhibition inside. I didn’t visit many attractions in Copenhagen, but I’m glad I visited this one.

Not to be missed. The line was short (on a late Saturday morning). Built under the direction of Danish monarch Christian IV between 1637 and 1642, this impressive tower offers stunning views of the København skyline along with the Øresund Bridge and Sweden in the distance. There are stairs only at the top; the sloping ascent made it possible for Christian IV to view his realm while riding in his carriage.

Beautiful building and it was awesome that the tower's path is the slope so it was such a nice way to travel up and down the building, I love it! Fantastic view of the city skyline at the top with a cool astronomy tower within ☀️🌙⭐🔭 There are bathrooms, shop, and gallery half way up the path. You can find a little details about the building and a replica look like it made from cork. Also an art gallery at the shop. The old bathroom was very small and interesting 😁 The final path way up the Round tower is a narrow tight space stairs so you have to wait for the lights to go up and come back down as there is only enough space for a one way traffic. It took up about an hour to get up, look around, and come back out. Definitely a recommendation of things to do in Copenhagen!

A nice walk up the round tower! Not staircases, just a walkway like walking or driving up a multi-story parking. 😃 lovely 360 views at the top if the weather permits. Lucky when we went it was dry and sunny so it was just perfect!

Cool place to see the landscape 🌆 of Copenhagen. Tip: Try to go at sunset 🌇 time. You can see how scientifics observed the sky in the past ⭐✨

Beautiful museum! I absolutely love when museums are filled with statues and this one was filled with them! The building is stunning as well, with sort of an indoor garden by the entrance and big rooms filled with artwork. There’s also a rooftop which was a surprise and has a stunning view of Copenhagen. The reason why I’m not giving them more stars is because of how rude the staff were in the mummy section. There were two young boys (staff apparently) who kept whispering and talking to each other without caring there were people in the room. It completely ruined the vibe and I felt really uncomfortable. I understand it gets boring down there and you need to pass the time, but could you NOT talk when people are there? The amusement park is next door so you will probably hear some screams thought out the museum which was also creepy at times but inevitable. Overall I recommend it. I spent around 2/3 hours there and think I managed to see most of it. You can purchase the ticket online with the QR by the entrance and it’s cheaper. Video of the cute plushies! So expensive tho.

A must-visit museum in Copenhagen! The Glyptotek is absolutely stunning, a perfect blend of art, history, and architecture. The collection ranges from ancient sculptures to impressionist masterpieces, beautifully displayed in serene galleries. The central winter garden is breathtaking, and the overall atmosphere feels peaceful and inspiring. I could easily spend hours here. Truly one of Copenhagen’s cultural gems!

Glyptoteket is, hands down, the most beautiful museum in Copenhagen. The atmosphere inside is incredible – there’s really nothing else like it, especially when you walk through the Winter Garden. It’s such a peaceful and stunning space. The exhibitions are great too, especially if you’re into ancient Greek and Roman culture. That’s definitely my favourite part of the museum. I also really enjoy the Egyptian section, and it’s super cool to go downstairs and see the mummies. They do have other exhibitions with paintings, but that’s not really my thing, so I usually skip those. For me, it’s all about walking around and admiring the statues

I think this might be one of my favorite museums I have visited in my life so far. The statues were incredibly moving and beautiful, and the interior of the museum was breathtaking, every corner is designed with such attention to detail. The exhibitions are also very interesting, and I would definitely recommend a visit to anyone coming to Copenhagen. The museum also has a restaurant and bar where you can enjoy a drink or a snack, as well as a shop with unique items if you’d like to take something home. Plan at least 1 to 2 hours for your visit. Unfortunately, we only had 45 minutes since we arrived close to closing time, but it was still worth it!

One of my favourite museums in the world, absolutely love the range of art and artists. Impressive selection of French artists, if you love sculpture then it is a great place to visit. It’s also a beautiful, well curated environment to boot.

Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek is one of Denmark’s most iconic art museums, founded by the Carlsberg brewery’s visionary creator. The museum houses thousands of rare and precious works — from Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome to 19th-century European masterpieces by renowned artists like Rodin, Degas, and Gauguin. A unique highlight is the Winter Garden, a stunning indoor oasis filled with lush greenery and natural light — the perfect place to pause and soak in the timeless atmosphere between the galleries. Good to know: Admission is free on the last Wednesday of each month, so don’t miss the chance to explore this world-class collection at no cost.

Beautiful museum with a wonderful indoor garden/courtyard, ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, and an amazing Ancient Egypt exhibit with real mummies and art from 5,000 years ago. They also have interesting audio to listen to where you can put on headphones and listen to an expert describe more about the art. I listened to the one where an expert on hieroglyphs described what an ancient stele was describing. One of my favorite museums. Good to note if you want to go that buying tickets online is cheaper.

An interesting area of Copenhagen to have a look at the housing architecture. The houses were all built for military personnel. The jewel in the crown is the folk museum that opens on Sundays between 11am and 2pm. Run by very knowledgeable volunteers it shows what like was like for people in the navy years ago. Very cheap to visit and an absolute must if you like social history.

This is well worth a swing past. There are old naval accommodations district. Now private houses they are very pretty in the conformed yellow rows. Easy to find and get to. Make the effort.

it's fine to drop by when roaming around - yellowish old rowhouses with past time atmosphere, still used for living. there are several streets ot these, at the time of our visit the main one with church was under reconstruction.

Just fell In love with this place and its History. A walk here is not necessary if you visit the city, but recommended by me, as it keeps good old vibes…

Nyboder (English: New [small] Houses) is a historic row house district of former Naval barracks in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was planned and first built by Christian IV to accommodate a need for housing for the personnel of the rapidly growing Royal Danish Navy and their families during that time. While the area is still commonly associated with the name of its founder as one of his numerous building projects around Copenhagen, the Nyboder seen today was in fact, except for a single row of houses in Sankt Pauls Gade, built from 1757.

What a beautiful and enigmatic neighbourhood. A must see.

Lovely and quiet place to visit and have a walk round the rows of historic yellow houses. Nyboder is a district which was planned and first built by Christian IV to accommodate a need for housing for the personnel of the Royal Danish Navy and their families. The buildings were completed in 1795.

This is a wonderful library but not necessarily an attraction site. It is mostly for researchers use. The grand view is fine but limited at you can see it in the photos

The Copenhagen Library is a stunning example of how design can transform a public space. The architecture is sleek, modern, and filled with natural light that floods through large windows, creating a calm and welcoming atmosphere. Clean lines, open spaces, and thoughtful details make it not just functional but genuinely beautiful. It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel inspired — whether you’re there to read, study, or simply take in the design. The balance of modern aesthetics with cozy, practical spaces makes it one of the coolest libraries I’ve ever visited. A true highlight of the city for architecture and design lovers.

Lovely building with cool melding of old and new architecture. The space is air conditioned making it a nice break from any weather outside. Free to enter and wander around with dedicated spaces for those actually wanting to read or study.

The Royal Library Black Diamond is one of the most surreal and inspiring places I’ve ever been. The atmosphere is absolutely perfect for studying – calm, bright, and so unique that you actually feel like you could sit here and study forever. The architecture is stunning both inside and out, with an amazing mix of modern design and peaceful views of the water. There’s also a cozy café with great options if you need a break, and the toilets are spotless, which makes a huge difference for long study sessions. Everything here feels so well thought-out, from the layout to the light. Honestly, it’s the best study environment I’ve found anywhere in the world.

Really enjoyable library with free lockers. The "travelator" is very fun and aesthetic to look at from above (the Grand View from the 6th floor) and the Treasures Collection on the first floor is amazing, with many old manuscripts

The Black Diamond (Royal Danish Library) is a stunning blend of modern architecture and cultural heritage. Completed in 1999, its sleek black granite façade reflects Copenhagen's harbor, while the interior boasts a luminous atrium, Per Kirkeby's grand fresco, and panoramic views. Open daily with free admission, it offers exhibitions, concerts, and a café. A must-visit for architecture enthusiasts and culture seekers.

Its a great place to see how the old (library) was joined with a new Black Diamond. Great example of Danish hygge design. And good coffee too 😀.

We visited Reffen after having lunch at Øens Have and it ended up being such a fun afternoon. Reffen is set right on the waterfront in Refshaleøen and has such a great energy; live music playing, food stalls everywhere and people sitting in deck chairs facing the sun with a wine or beer in hand. The whole place has that relaxed Copenhagen vibe where people just enjoy the moment and take their time. Getting there was easy and part of the experience; we took the ferry to Refshaleøen and from the second we stepped off the boat you could hear music and see the colourful food containers ahead of us. It almost feels like a little creative village made of repurposed shipping containers, art and food. Reffen is open seasonally, mainly from spring to autumn; during summer it opens around late morning and stays open into the evening which is perfect because the atmosphere really comes alive when the sun is out. In the cooler months the hours are limited or closed altogether, so it’s definitely more of a warm-weather experience. There are so many food vendors to choose from and the variety is huge; everything from dumplings, burgers and Mexican food to smoked fish, noodles, desserts and plant-based options. It’s the kind of place where you just wander around, see what catches your eye and go with whatever smells amazing. We loved grabbing something small from one stall, then something else from another and sharing everything. It’s also such a beautiful place to sit by the water and just take it all in. Watching locals and tourists relaxing together with music playing and the harbour right in front of you makes it feel extra special. If you love street food, a fun atmosphere and places that feel a bit more local and laid back, I highly recommend visiting Reffen. It’s the perfect way to spend an afternoon in Copenhagen.

A place with a very positive vibe. Many street food stands from all over the world, plus drinks, teas, coffees, sweets etc. Freshly made food upon order requires a few minutes to wait for, in most popular places. Many places to sit so although it was Saturday we found a table (beer garden) without any trouble. All set in post industrial zone.

Great variety and cozy outdoor vibes – just wish for more fire pits! Reffen is a great spot if you're looking to try different cuisines in one place – there's a huge variety of food from all over the world. The outdoor area has a really nice atmosphere, especially with the wood fire pits that keep you warm on colder days. We really liked that touch – it made the place feel super cozy. The only downside was that it was quite busy, and all the seats near the fire were taken, so we couldn’t find a warm spot to sit. I wish there were more fire pits or heated areas, especially during peak times. Otherwise, it was a great experience, and I’d definitely come back!

Got lucky with the weather and enjoyed a great day at Reffen sinking a few beers and eating some good food by the firepits. There's plenty of options for food and if the weather isn't playing ball there's a massive indoor area too. The staff are constantly buzzing around topping up the wood in the firepits and there's loads of comfy chairs dotted around. It's a cool place

Such a unique experience with such a variety of foods and experiences, it's somewhere you can go with friends for food and drinks or a family trip with the kids! Would recommend making the journey over here. (The journey does take a short while from the centre of Copenhagen but certainly worth it!)

Always tried something different. This time I tried the baos, they were really good. The Argentinian places are my to go. The view is breathtaking specially during the sunset. A special vibe and a nice plan during the weekdays or weekends.

Great selection of street food from all over the world in a unique dockyard setting 👍🏽 Definitely worth a visit but I would look at getting the bus or maybe the water taxi as it is a fair walk from the city centre.

Go for the live Jazz on Tuesdays! Lovely atmosphere by the water, great for people watching and connecting with friends. There’s a little place. You can get drinks and snacks. And also public toilets.

It's a nice view, you can sit there and sometimes in the evenings people are dancing Salsa and Bachata. Enjoyed it a lot

An amazing experiences .The boating company Hey Captain were an awesome group of your guides

my favourite place to just take a break and relax in copenhagen. especially sitting at the kissing stairs and dipping your feet into the sea. it's so refreshing. the atmosphere is great. you can lay down, take a nap, read, eat .. whatever you want. it's such a chill spot.

Very cool location, especially like the "The Wave" art installation that was present during my time of visit, both during the day and in evening the evening when the lights of the installation went on. Nice views as well.

When the weather is good, bring your bathing trousers!!

This place add another character of Copenhagen beautiful city. The Pier. A place to take a break, grab a snack and a drink and to socialize with friends and meet people to have fun. Now the place is become more popular with young crowds who wants to see and be seen specially during summer sunny months. This place is perfect to find a nice spot between the sky and sea to relax and enjoy the great atmosphere. Grab a drink and food while sunbathing and swimming. The place has pavilions facing the water which sells alcohol and non alcoholic drinks. Food trucks also available where you can order pizzza, burgers and fries. Parking opportunity directly underground of the pier. Ofelia Plads is also a place for events and activities to promote and city life in Copenhagen. Highly recommend this place to join the fun specially during summer sunny days.

Lovely place in all seasons. A bit crowded around Spring when the cherry blossoms come out, but well worth the visit all the same. As cemeteries go, this one is very well kept 😍

Walking through Bispebjerg Kirkegård during cherry blossom season is like stepping into a dream. The peaceful stillness of the cemetery is suddenly transformed into a scene straight out of Japan, with rows of pink cherry trees arching gracefully above the pathways. But for me, what made it even more special was sharing it with my Japanese dog, who—beneath the sakura canopy—seemed right at home.

🌸Amazing cherry blossoms🌸there are helpful pink signs near the entrance guiding the way to Kirsebæralléen for those who tend to get lost in the vast kirkegård🌱 🌸very insightful setting to have the arrival of spring (renewal of life) manifested annually at the cemetery (celebration of life)🌱I also love how the cemetery in general displays the richness and colours of lives that have gone before us, that we may see hope (spring!!) in the life ahead🌸🌱 🌸Happy Hanami to all🌸Spring is here and life is beautiful and hopeful indeed🌱

Very colourful and well looked after church yard Worth a visit Church is beautiful outside and inside

Cherry alley is a wonderful place in a cemetery in Copenhagen where one week a year in April or May cherry trees bloom and you feel you are in heaven. Unfortunately is full of people most of the time enjoying the colors and spectacle of nature but it's still worth a visit. Remember to take your camera with you.

What a place! Beautiful nature, amazing time to be visit around March/April! Quite crowded but lots of empty green spaces to escape the crowds, quite touristy but again doesn’t matter! Come here & let the flowers/trees dive in!

Late April could be the best time to visit this cemetery if you wanted to see the cherry blossom. The cherry blossom alley is beautiful even it likely crowded at that time. There are few other things to see in this big cemetery, so take some time to walk around. However, this place is a bit far from the city center.

The rooftop was pretty busy during lunchtime but the view of the city is lovely. The cocktails are good, this is a perfect place for a break between shopping.

Me and my mom are traveling to Copenhagen from New York and we had such a good experience here. We went to Rosso Pomodoro for dinner. We got the Focaccia bread for an appetizer, 2 margarita pizzas for dinner and the Mambo Italiano pitcher for a drink, which was amazing especially if you like ginger beer. We had Raul as a server and he was a sweet guy; such a great personality!

Rosopomodoro was superb. Excellent service and food. The only things preventing that 5th star was that one wasn't able to order a drink from the other restaurant that shared the space. It wasn't allowed to purchase the drink from one place and drink it in another.

We went to the coffee shop at illum rooftop. Had a nice view and the vibe was uplifting. Coffee shop was full with people. You could go alone too if u wanna pep up your mood. Nice coffee

Very cool spot! Rooftop balcony overlooking the square. The pizza is awesome! The best pizza we have had in Copenhagen. Awesome crispy and chewy crust. Will definitely eat here again.

Beautiful view, enough space for everybody (I was during the week time afternoon) and there is happy hour in that day time so you can get two cocktails for the price of only one.

We ordered filter coffee but it was only yellow water. Espresso was very strong even it was single shot, they are using bitter coffee beans The cappuccino was ok

Nyhavn is an absolutely charming place to visit, and one of the highlights of our trip to Copenhagen. With its colorful row houses lining the canal, it truly feels like stepping into a postcard. The atmosphere is lively yet relaxing, making it a wonderful spot to simply stroll and take in the views. The waterfront is lined with plenty of restaurants and cafés, perfect for enjoying a meal or drink while people-watching and soaking up the vibrant surroundings. On sunny days, the place comes alive with energy, and the reflections on the canal make it especially picturesque. If you’re planning to take a canal or river cruise, be mindful of the schedules. Delays of 15–30 minutes are not uncommon, so it’s best to check the timing in advance to avoid waiting around. Nyhavn is also very family-friendly, with open spaces for walking, calm corners for resting, and food options to suit all tastes. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, with friends, or with children, it’s a place everyone can enjoy. Overall, we had a fantastic experience here. Between the stunning views, the welcoming atmosphere, and the abundance of dining options, Nyhavn is a must-visit in Copenhagen. We’d definitely recommend adding it to your itinerary!!

At night, I enjoyed a beautiful night view along with dinner and many other travelers. In the early morning, I went for a run and quietly admired the serene Danish sunrise. It’s a place where you can truly experience the happiness that travel brings, one hundred percent.

Beautiful landmark in Copenhagen, Denmark, famous for its lines of colorful buildings wonderfully reflected in the canal. It’s packed with visitors walking around the area to catch its wonderful ambience, enjoy the cafes and restaurants along the canal, have a cruise and also shops for souvenirs. There’s a walking path as well so it’s ♿️✅ accessible and disability friendly. Parking might be tricky in the surrounding

Nyhavn is one of the places in Copenhagen I visit the most, both as a professional guide and in my private life, and it never loses its charm. The colorful houses, the historic waterfront and the lively atmosphere make it a must-see for anyone visiting the city. As a guide, I love showing guests the authentic side of Nyhavn and sharing the stories behind the houses and the sailors who once lived here, and privately I just enjoy strolling along the water and soaking in the vibe. If you want to experience classic Danish coziness and one of the city’s most iconic sights, Nyhavn is the perfect place to start.

Very pretty with all the different colored buildings but it was incredibly busy. I went back early morning & got some stunning pictures being many people were around. Definitely worth a visit.

Very pretty, even on a rainy day. Love the many colors of the buildings and it has a cozy feel with the lights strung up at this time of year. Didn’t have a chance to eat at one of the many establishments but looks like a great experience dining along the canal. Quite beautiful!

Nyhavn is a 17th-century waterfront and a canal district in Copenhagen, Denmark. It stretches from Kongens Nytorv to the Inner Harbour and is lined by brightly coloured early 17th century townhouses, bars and cafe's. Initially Nyhavn was constructed by King Christian V, dug by Danish soldiers and Swedish prisoners of war, and was a gateway from the sea to the old inner city of King's Square, where ships handled cargo and fishermens' catch. It was notorious for beer and sailors. The first bridge across Nyhavn opened in 1874. It was a temporary wooden footbridge. It was replaced by the current bridge in 1912. After World War II, Nyhavn was deserted of ships. In 1977, Nyhavn was inaugurated as a veteran ship and museum harbour by Copenhagen's Lord Mayor Egon Weidekamp. In 1980 Nyhavn quay was pedestrianised. Since then, it became a popular spot for tourists and locals. The northern side of Nyhavn is lined by brightly coloured townhouses built with wood, bricks, and plaster. The oldest house, # 9, dates from 1681. Between 1845 and 1864, even the Danish writer, Hans Christian Andersen lived at # 67, where a memorial plaque now stands. In fact from 1871 to 1875 Andersen lived at Nyhavn # 18, which now has an Andersen-themed souvenir shop. The most attractive part of this area is the multi-coloured houses and constructions, which catches the eye immediately. Even though people look casually happy and satiated, just to be there, it still seems to be like a very busy Hub. I loved it.

A wonderful historic place, with amazing events. There is a garderobe and a bar to get snacks and drinks. The inside aquarium is a huge attraction for children and seniors equally. When buying the tickets it's recommended to avoid the top balcony because few building polls are positioned straight in the middle and minimise the view. It will be nice if Tivoli administration will add a remark about this on their website to be known when people buy their tickets online.

I enjoy the venue more for the location and the excellent shows put in there, than for the facilities themselves. Positives: -The lobby is amazing, owing to the gigantic reef aquarium! You never get bored waiting before shows or during intermission. -Plentiful, clean bathrooms. Negatives: -Leg room on the balcony. Haven't experienced this problem so much when seated on the floor rows.

Beautifully decorated for Halloween. I see they put in a lot of effort for this. Really felt the Halloween vibes. However, it's too expensive. There is entrance fee close to 200dkk, and you need to buy the ride ticket to even ride. Sorry, for broke student like me, I don't have any cash reserves to spend here. But if you are wealthy, and have worked your life off to give your kids a good experience, sure.

An old-school music hall with a Lot of wood, decoration and atmosphere. The chairs are much more comfirtable as they look. Good lively sound. The bonus ist the gigantic aquarium at the entrance. Love it.

Fantastic place. It was great they chose it for the conference I attended however, unfortunately the games were all on hold while Tivoli garden was under huge preparations for the Halloween. There are many restaurants and coffee shops inside yet most were closed during the time I visited. The lecture halls were very clean, convenient seats and its size was quite appropriate. Bathrooms were clean and good except for insufficient tissues and trash cans. Tivli is in the city of Copenhagen and the whole place around it was full of shops, cafes and restaurents along with variety of available transportation services

Great place for entertainment. They show ballet (I saw The Snow Queen) classic music concerts and lots of other things. And the ticket to the show gives you entry into the beautiful park, which at night is usually decorated with beautiful lights.

360 all star, great entertainment with some fun, rap, stunts and cool people.

Very impressive and beautiful building. It has its old parts. The old elevator was particularly interesting

This is sooo cool building! All the time, we expected that we would meet students with togas and broomsticks. Total Harry Potter vibe. And you can enter so many spaces. That was one of the highlights of our trip.

One of my favorite places to photograph weddings in Copenhagen. The building has a real sense of grandeur, especially the main hall and the staircase — it gives a classic, elegant feel to the photos. In the warmer months, the garden is a great bonus. There’s a lovely fountain and quiet corners that work beautifully for portraits or just a quick breather for the couple. Also, if you’re interested in the history of the place, they offer free guided tours, which is a nice touch.

One of those few city halls that lets tourists explore evey corner of the building! We had such a good time.

Copenhagen City Hall is a magnificent architectural landmark and a must-visit for anyone interested in history, design, or civic culture. Situated right in the heart of the city, this imposing building stands as a proud symbol of Danish municipal heritage and architectural grandeur. The City Hall is designed in the National Romantic style, heavily influenced by the Italian Renaissance but also rooted in Nordic tradition. Completed in 1905 by architect Martin Nyrop, the building features a distinctive red-brick façade, arched windows, golden accents, and a beautiful gilded statue of Absalon — the legendary founder of Copenhagen — above the main entrance. One of the most impressive features is the tower, soaring 105 meters high — one of the tallest in Copenhagen — and offering sweeping views of the city (when open to visitors). The intricate details of the interior are equally stunning, especially the grand atrium with its arched colonnades, marble floors, and Danish coats of arms. Visitors can also admire the famous Jens Olsen’s World Clock, a marvel of mechanical engineering and astronomical precision that draws enthusiasts from around the world. Even if you don't take a tour, the exterior alone is well worth admiring. The building fits beautifully into the historic cityscape, standing proudly on Rådhuspladsen (City Hall Square), where locals gather for public celebrations, events, and even political rallies.

A beautiful historic building in the heart of Copenhagen. The architecture is impressive, both inside and out, with intricate details and a grand main hall. The highlight is the tower, which offers great views of the city, though the climb is quite steep. We skipped the guided tour and there’s really not much to explore on your own. Still definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re interested in architecture or want a unique city view!

It’s right in the city centre and free to check out. Pretty cool place—lots of people do wedding photo shoots there. The library was nice, but the real highlight for me was the clock on the ground floor. Don’t miss it. It was made by Jens Olsen and it’s not just a regular clock. It shows time, solar and lunar eclipses, positions of the planets, and has a perpetual calendar—kind of like the ancient Antikythera mechanism. The whole thing has over 15,000 parts. One gear turns every 10 seconds, and the slowest one only once every 25,753 years. And it only needs to be wound once a week. Crazy engineering.

We booked the guided tour of the Opera House, and it was well worth it. Our guide was excellent — full of insightful commentary, tasteful humor, and fascinating royal anecdotes. As an architecture student, I found the visit particularly enriching — not only for its perspective on Danish architecture, but also for its glimpse into the unique spatial logic of opera houses. I would have loved to see the main hall from the stage perspective, but it was understandable — the scenography team was busy preparing for the next performance. A memorable and thoughtful tour overall.

Visited the Opera Park that has great plantings of trees bushes and plants for year round interest. Stone paths beckon side trips over knolls of green. The gorgeous marble opera house is the backdrop scenery. Knock on the Italian marble panels to hear the unique tone of each!

Architecturally stunning both inside and out, this place has several theatres in one. In fact the backstage is larger than the stage so it can provide space for several performances to occur simultaneously. We had seats near the back in the orchestra section for the ballet, The Great Gatsby. It was a fabulous performance with good acoustics. Pro tip: get there early enough for the behind the scenes tour.

Beautiful place. Went to 4th floor and the restaurant. Can defently recommend. View 12/10.

We went there to see the premiere of West Side Story. It was a unique experience. The Opera house in Copenhagen is a modern building with high tech stage features and fantastic acoustics. The seating layout is such that everyone has a good view and can enjoy the performance. Outside the opera hall, the building is spacious with free vestibule, plenty of restrooms and seating space to have a drink before the performance or during the break. Good to know is that you can preorder drinks for your group to be ready by the break. These will be waiting for you with a little namecard when the first half of the performance is finished so you don’t have to queue up.

Stunning architecture beaten only by the performance of Tosca the staging was sublime. Recommend a visit.

Lovely modern opera house right on dockside in Copenhagen. Not a great deal else to see but canal and old warehouses very nice

Great experience at the train station. Easy to follow signs to get to the correct train. Easy to buy tickets with all credit cards and local currency. Stairs or elevator access to all trains. Lots of stores for food of all types for the train ride or to grab to take to hotel

The train transportation is really fast and comfortable. You can anywhere as much as quickly. No crowd , late or etc. i liked and strongly recommend. But i didnt like cleaning. There was always bad smell in the trains

Whether you're arriving by train, heading to the airport, grabbing coffee, or just meeting under the clock (“Under Uret”), it's a central slice of Copenhagen’s charm and connectivity.

Very well equipped with all the amenities for travellers. It's easy enough for anyone to find everything they need (platforms, coffee...). A coffee shop I went to was equipped with electricoty sockets for charging your phone, which I found very useful.

I really be interacting at some one help me to make law suit against DSB and include those have ticket or monthly tickets, as see there is train on DSb app and Rijseplanen but as u arrived in station there is no train , in there screen is say train is available, and don’t tell me it one time , as I recorded it’s more than 12 times happening to me in 6 months

Easy to find your trains. Lots of automats to buy tickets. Located very well in central of Copenhagen.

Honestly, the station looks nice and is super central, so it’s really convenient for getting around Copenhagen. But… I wasn’t blown away by the vibe inside. It felt a bit hectic and kind of crowded, nothing too special. Still, it gets the job done if you need to catch a train or grab something quick nearby. Definitely better for a quick stop than a place to hang out.

A solid North American–style burger in a fun Copenhagen setting I had been looking forward to trying this place after seeing a video on YouTube. I love the whole concept behind the Gas Station burger joint — a stylish nod to North American burger culture — and they definitely nail the vibe. As a North American myself, surrounded by some of the best burgers in the world back home, it’s always a fun experience to try the European take on a “classic” burger. But I’ll be honest: most of the time, it ends up feeling like a much more expensive version of a budget comfort food I already have access to regularly. That said — this one was a standout. If you’ve never had a proper North American–style burger and you’re in Copenhagen, this is a fantastic place to start. I had a soft, fresh buttered brioche bun, sharp orange cheddar, a classic burger sauce (think Big Mac style), sweet pickles, and a perfectly grilled, pink, juicy patty. Super well-balanced and satisfying. Final thoughts: Is it a revelation for someone from the U.S. or Canada? Probably not. But it’s a damn good version of a familiar classic, done with care and quality ingredients. If you’re craving a legit burger in Copenhagen, this place will definitely hit the spot.

Best burgers in Copenhagen is an understatement. The line at this one was quite long but service was quick and efficient. Some seating outside. Butter burger was really good, as was the cheeseburger and vinegar fries. Lemonade not amazing but refreshing. Price quite high but worth it.

Probably one of the best burgers you can ever have! The line was long but moved fast. There’s a bit of outdoor seating. The butter burger and cheeseburger were both great, and the fries were really good too. The lemonade was refreshing. A bit pricey, but worth it.

Definitely worth the 30-minute wait for a simple yet outstanding burger. The juicy, flavorful meat really stood out. Seating is limited, but there’s something fun about grabbing a burger from a gas station and eating it on the spot. A must-try when in Copenhagen!

Great burger! Fresh ingredients. I asked for a burger with lettuce only for my young boy. They messed it up by putting all ingredients and giving us extra lettuce on the side. My son still ate it! Told me it was delicious!

Their hamburgers are very delicious,made with high-quality meat. The fries are also very tasty, and the drinks are good too. It's no surprise it sells so well. In the evenings, there's a very long line of people, and you have to wait for an hour, but it's delicious and worth the wait. The restaurant only has one or two tables for dining in.

Such a great place to have a burger and a drink. Especially in summer. Great burgers, fast service and great food. The Green Burger without a veggie patty is so good and fresh. The fresh sanitary napkins are a great treat after a oily burger. Organic fast food at its best!

King’s Garden is a beautiful green space right beside Rosenborg Castle 🌳🏰, right in the heart of Copenhagen. On a sunny day, the greenery and blue sky make it absolutely stunning 🌤️. You get a great view of the castle from the garden and can click some lovely photos 📸. Note — there’s no direct entry from Rosenborg Castle, the garden has a separate entrance outside. A peaceful and must-visit spot in the city 🇩🇰.

We absolutely loved visiting Kongens Have (also known as the King’s Garden) in Copenhagen; we could easily have spent the whole day there if we hadn’t had other plans. It is stunning, quiet, beautifully maintained and full of charm. We visited in early September, and the temperature was still warm so it was so lovely to meander through the grounds and then lie under a big tree on the grass, looking up at the sky and letting time slow down. The garden first opened in the early 1600s (established around 1606) and is one of Copenhagen’s oldest and most beloved public parks. Within its bounds you’ll see the old royal palace (we spotted the castle exterior that day, though we didn’t go inside), beautiful statues, flowerbeds, leafy lawns, old trees and plenty of shady spots offering respite from the sun. The scale of the garden is impressive! It feels massive, open, friendly and surprisingly peaceful even though it’s still in the heart of the city. We found it incredibly romantic; the kind of place perfect for a stroll, a picnic and an afternoon just watching the world go by. The shady benches, the open lawns, the mix of people relaxing and families playing was so lovely to see. We found a spot under a large tree, laid out on the grass and just looked up at the sky, breathing in the calm. The garden is free to enter and open daily; typically it opens early in the morning and closes after sunset (hours vary by season). During the summer months the park stays open quite late, often until 10pm or later when daylight allows. In winter the closing time is earlier. Because we visited in September, we had plenty of daylight and didn’t feel rushed at all. If you are visiting Copenhagen, I highly recommend taking time to wander through Kongens Have. It’s peaceful, gorgeous, accessible and a perfect place for a little escape in the city.

The King's Garden (Kongens Have) is a must-visit in Copenhagen! Dating back to 1606, it blends royal history with peaceful gree spaces. Stroll past statues, fountains, and colorful flowerbeds, relax near the Hercules Pavilion, or enjoy a sunny picnic. Open daily with free entry, it's perfect for both history lovers and anyone seeking calm in the heart of the city

The Rosenborg Castle is free to walk around and enjoy. I did not go in...The exterior is lovely...you can then walk next door to the King's Garden/Park and see the gardens, the tree-lined walkway and the espalted garden...the rose bushes were extraordinary...especially a newer yellow species developed in Germany.

The King’s Garden just next to the hotel was a great place to hang out. As it was a sunny day, it was a nice place to walk and soak in the sunshine. To end off the evening, we got some biscuits from Netto for our breakfast tomorrow as well as some chips for our little picnic at the King’s Garden in the evening. The sun was to set about 9pm this evening so we had plenty of sun in the gardens which we enjoyed... For the full details of our 5 months Round the World (RTW) travels, visit 2bearbear today!

Cracking garden this, lovely grounds, nice wide pavements and big open spaces to have fun in the middle of the city. The planted areas are looking a bit worse for wear, it being autumn, but there still showing signs of being tenderly cared for. I can only imagine how good it looks in summer. There are fun statues around the park as well, a walk around it whilst killing time before you go to the airport is well recommended.

Very beautiful garden with a great viev of the Rosenborg Castle. I visited in November, the autumn leaf colors were amazing and it was not crowded.

Anglican Church on the outer rim of the Kastellet mound. Quaint and interesting to see the items to England. We were also treated to a display of bagpipe players when we were there. Three attractions in a 5 min walking time so always worth the effort.

St. Albans Church, located right by the harbor, is a charming example of English Gothic architecture. Though modest in size, it stands out for its intricate details and graceful design. Surrounded by a picturesque setting, the church’s beauty and peaceful atmosphere make it well worth a visit.

We were invited to come in for a look when passing by. A smaller church but nice inside. No entrance fee. Information leaf on different languages were available. Please remember always take off your caps/hat and so when entering all religious building.

Beautiful church in central Copenhagen. There is a magnificent fountain in front of it.

This small historic church is right next to the Gefion fountain. It a nice cozy kind of church that gives you warmth.

Stunning church located within the grounds of the Kastellet close to the harbour and the little mermaid statue. The church grounds are truly magical and provide photography lovers with several different perspectives to capture postcard worthy shots. Highly recommend a visit.

Impressive building and fitting that it is an Anglican Church because one can picture it somewhere in the UK. The only trouble is that it is closed to visitors for half the year, which is a real shame because there would probably be a lot to see inside such a huge structure.

Amager Strandpark is one of the cleanest and best-designed urban beach parks I’ve visited. Everything feels modern, well-kept, and thoughtfully laid out. The walking and cycling paths are smooth and wide, the facilities are spotless, and the entire area feels very safe and orderly — a real credit to Copenhagen’s urban planning! While the water is exceptionally clean and clear, it’s worth noting that it’s often too cold for swimming, even in summer, unless you're especially brave or used to Nordic waters. That said, it’s still wonderful to be near: the sea air is fresh, the views are calming, and the setting is perfect for a long walk or relaxed afternoon by the shore. The man-made island with its grassy dunes, combined with the city skyline in the distance, creates a beautiful contrast between nature and urban life. Whether you're out for exercise, reflection, or just enjoying the open space, Amager Strandpark offers a peaceful coastal escape within minutes of central Copenhagen.

A fantastic beach with plenty of facilities. Two big supermarkets in front of the beach, a pizza restaurant, fruit sellers, public toilets, everything you need. Then the clean sand along the shore, cold but calm water that keeps you at the shore, no currents. Safe fenced swimming area for children, long day with plenty sunlights under the blue blue sky. It was a perfect lazy Saturday chilling at the beach. We had a few dips and a good break from work. A perfect weekend getaway spot. Definitely recommend!

Amager Beach Park is a hidden gem just outside the city—clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The views are absolutely stunning, with the Øresund Bridge and offshore windmills creating a dramatic skyline, especially at sunset and sunrise. Whether you’re into swimming, running, walking, or just loitering peacefully by the sea, this place delivers. There’s a nice café for a coffee break, and also for having ice cream. There is plenty of parking, and wide paths for biking or jogging. You can easily spend hours here soaking in the calm atmosphere and scenic beauty.

I like the colors of the beach, gentle and soft, classic nordic vibe, or even put it to the best. I went there in summer time, weekdays, cloudy days, that is saying there were minimum people. If you ask me what heaven should be like, I would visualize with this beach in mind :)

Amager Beach Park , a peaceful escape just minutes from central Copenhagen. With clean water, long walking paths, and wide open views, it’s perfect for swimming, biking, or simply relaxing. The beach is well-maintained, though a bit windy, and the water can be cold even in summer. It’s popular with locals, especially on sunny weekends, so expect some crowds. Facilities are decent, and there’s space for sports, picnics, or quiet walks. While not a must-see for tourists, it’s a great place to unwind and enjoy the Danish outdoors. Ideal for families, joggers, or anyone needing a break from the city. And most importantly, you can see plain landing in every 2 minutes on average 🙂‍↔️

Best beach in Copenhagen. It’s spacious and easy to get around on the boardwalk swirling through the small sand dunes where you can hide in. The water quality is nice and there’s even good areas with seaweed good for snorkeling (and diving?). There’s both sandy, grassy and concrete spots to rest to enjoy the beach around. Plenty toilet facilities along the beach and both a lagoon and the beach of the ocean. There’s also both surf rental, ice cream and food options there.

Long Beach, you need to cross the bridge after metro. Also, it is a good spot to bike! Definitely try in a less windy day to enjoy amazing Copenhagen summer. Full of seagulls, salty water smell and soft sand… Summer vibe is here! Also, there is an ice cream counter just right after the bridge which was not open but in a sunny day, it is an amazing spot! Also, there is an area for beach volleyball. Good beach for swimming, walking and biking!

Come here for a swim, or a dance, or a picnic. This place is full of locals and visitors. So much happening and a delight to get to swim here!

A very pleasant way to spend an afternoon and have a bit of an explore. Felt safe on board and the video guided tour really helped understand what we were seeing!

cute spot to spend the day in the sun and swimming, specially nice during the summer

Excellent please to visit and enjoy. Take your time to walk, to ride everywhere, each corner has something to show.

Went there on a holiday and it was very crowded and still had some space for us to lay down and enjoy the sun. Regretted not having my swim shorts with me as I would have loved dipping my toes in the water! This single place is good enough of a reason for me to come back to Copenhagen!

Beautiful place. Unfortunately very busy and noisy most of the time .. Good for hanging out with friends.

Amazing place to hang out, sunbathe, swim or just take a walk.

It is a nice place if you really enjoy the historic origin of products and design and the designer themselves. They have lots of information on the design and the product displayed. Was hoping to get the audio version so we don’t have to spend a lot of time reading, however, the audio set were all out… Love the slide at the end and some interactive spots for pictures

Really fascinating exhibits here. There’s a really great exhibit on danish, design and architecture (permanent) and a very thought-provoking one on building materials for the 21st-century, that are more biologically inclusive to all creatures. Plus a fun slide, and a rooftop café with great views!

The building is beautiful. The items of the museum are ok. There are instructive videos there and a long slide. Restaurant/cafe has grand view

Such a cool place to visit if you’re into design and architecture. Sadly the second floor was closed during my visit. It’s still fun to be here even if you don’t know much about design because at least you can take a slider down from the third floor to the ground floor!

Beautiful and modern museum, with an outstanding staff, and a gorgeously curated collection of art, architecture and design. Also, do not miss the chance to slide down the slide at the end of your visit! Childhood memories instantly unlocked <3

Intriguing and interesting pomo building housing a fascinating exhibition on Danish architectural history and displays on renovation and conservation on the upper floors. Good views of the city. Only one criticism the captions and written descriptions on the historical displays could have been in bigger type tomakr them easier to read.

Really cool architecture museum, has fun things for kids to see and do as well. Outdoor playground is a model of small design but BIG fun, inside the museum there is a three storey slide for kids to zoom down. giftshop is full of goodies. rooftop terrace has cafe and great views. toilets only accessible with a ticket.

Breathtaking Garden of the Royal Library We visited this beautiful garden on a sunny day in September, and it was absolutely lovely. Some locals come here to read or spend time with their families, which adds to its charm. We’d love to return and enjoy it again!

Enjoy this hidden garden. Lovely place just behind the library. The water-falling from the tall structure is soothing too. With the flower, plants and lovely pond it is a nice place to relax.

Small but cute little garden. If you are lucky you can get sitting places in the shade.

I went there with some friends to know for first time. I should say that this place impressed me. They have a beautiful garden and all the area clean and tidy. The building with all structure well-care remains me a stories that were told to me as a child. Definitely the danish order is exceptional.

Another beautiful park which is very relaxing as you walk through the city avoiding the main streets.

A surprisingly tranquil corner of Copenhagen's most touristy and crowded district. Even though there is a constant stream of groups passing through, there was no shortage of seating for great people watching.

Absolutely amazed by the Garden of the Royal Library! 🌿✨ The garden is perfectly maintained ~ every path, bench, and flowerbed looks like it’s cared for with real love and attention. It’s such a peaceful, elegant spot in the heart of the city, ideal for taking a quiet moment or simply soaking in the beauty around you.

Great place for a quiet walk and picnic. Gardens well kept and refreshingly fragranct of the summer blossoms.

Nice little garden. Good place to sit and enjoy your lunch break. Entry free.

Amaliehaven - The Garden of Amalie In spring, Amaliehaven turns into a living painting. Every week, different trees and flowers come to life - first the magnolias, then the cherry blossoms, then the lilacs. That's why it's worth visiting this garden often, once a week, to see how it slowly changes, as if nature is breathing. The garden is named after Queen Amalie, the wife of King Frederik VI. She loved peace and beauty, and this little park by the royal palace still keeps that gentle spirit.

A lovely, lovely beautiful place to breath fresh air after you cross the concrete and stone palace and church. The fountain makes it so much better. After crossing the fountain there is a small garden on the left. Garden has so many different kinds of shrubs and flowers. There is also a nice water cooler or a bubbler. Enjoy the time here. Take it all in, relax. You can also walk to the steps next to the water way and observe the Operaen from across .

Free and beautiful. A gorgeous garden that is symmetrical, formal, includes walls, plants, fountains, obelisks, and more, all in a small space. Lovely

The best part of Amaliehaven is the fountain and view. The water soundscape is cooling, peaceful and mesmerizing while the greenery is very strictly designed. Theres nothing voluptuous, magical or charming. No curves, just straight strict alleys and lines and a very composed, Nordic garden.

Nice place, just watch out for the doctors and engineers lurking around.

Beautiful teater perfect location and lovely interior The cinema salon was okay, big enough and clean, staff was kind There is small area for kids to play

The overall experience makes it hard to believe that it is the same Nordic cinema. In comparison to Høje Taastrup's, the one in Palads needs an upgrade. The seats are spring-loaded and quite uncomfortable, some of the cinema halls' layouts are quite interesting. It's an okay place to watch a movie, but if you'd like full comfort, I would either make sure they have more comfortable halls or choose another location.

Palads Teatret (the Palads Cinema), also known simply as the Palads, is a cinema operated by Nordisk Film in Copenhagen, Denmark. It offers a wide selection of films in its 17 auditoriums, more than in any other Danish cinema.

The arcitecture of this cinema is probabbly the most stunning i've ever seen. but there were 25min of ads after the suposed starting time of the movie and it was way too loud, had do cover my ears multiple times. (Edit: not the Loudness of the adds, i meant the movie :D)

The cinemas feel uncomfortable and cramped in comparison to others and its one of the worst customer service operations we have ever experienced. Leaves a bad taste in our mouths so much that we will no longer be viewing any movies here and advising against it from now on.

We went for an English movie in screen 16. The movie was not projected on the entire screen. Not a good experience. Update: We went for an animation movie in Screen 1. We booked row 10. It was very big screen. The view was not that great from 10 especially for kids. View from row 14 was good. Very small popcorn for kids is available. That's good choice.

Such a beautiful looking building - externally it has a real retro vibe. Internally, the foyer is stunning, but definitely looks a lot more slicker and modern than it’s facade. I was in Screen 14, which was quite small but perfectly comfortable. The shop had a great variety of drinks and snacks to purchase. Staff were lovely and very welcoming.

TorvehallerneKBH is a vibrant hub of Copenhagen’s food scene, combining the buzz of a modern food hall with the charm of a local market. Spread across indoor and outdoor areas, it offers endless culinary variety, from fresh produce and gourmet ingredients to artisan coffee, pastries, and global street food. There’s plenty of seating inside and out, making it a great place to linger and savour the atmosphere. It can get quite busy, especially on weekends, but the energy adds to its appeal. Think of it as a more bespoke version of a Time Out Market, lively, delicious, and absolutely worth a visit.

Very cool food hall. Has variety of products from seafood to cheese, from meat to greens. Definitely worth to see especially for those who seeks for some local food and experience with nice vibe.

Torvehallerne is an absolute must visit when you’re in Copenhagen; it sits in a trendy part of the city with great shopping and cafés nearby, and the atmosphere is lively and full of energy. The market is both indoor and outdoor with two large glass halls and over 60 food vendors and stalls to explore. You’ll find everything here: fresh produce, pastries, seafood, cheeses, flowers, specialty chocolates, wine, spices and amazing international street food alongside classic Danish favourites. We visited twice during our stay in early September because we loved it so much. The food and flowers are incredibly fresh and it’s a great spot to grab a snack, lunch or even just a coffee break. There are also some really gorgeous little gift shops where you can pick up local chocolates, condiments or small treats to take home. The market is very central and right next to Nørreport Station which makes it super easy to get to by metro or train; it’s also close to other well known city landmarks and attractions, so you can easily combine it with other sightseeing. It felt very accessible and from what we saw, wheelchair access seemed available throughout the main areas. Toilets are located inside, which is always helpful to know as a tourist. Torvehallerne is open daily; generally opening around mid morning and closing early evening, with slightly shorter hours on Sundays. The vibe changes through the day; mornings feel calm while afternoons get a little busier We could have spent longer here; eating, browsing and people watching. If you love great food, local finds and vibrant markets, I highly recommend visiting.

The Torvehallerne Market in Copenhagen is an absolute delight and a must-visit for food lovers. Located right in the city center, it offers a vibrant mix of fresh produce, gourmet specialties, and international street food, all under one roof. The atmosphere is lively yet welcoming, with stalls full of color, aromas, and flavors from around the world. You can find everything from freshly baked bread, pastries, and cheeses to seafood, spices, and beautifully prepared meals. It’s the perfect place to sample Danish delicacies as well as global cuisine, making every visit a culinary adventure. What makes Torvehallerne especially enjoyable is the quality — everything feels fresh, carefully selected, and full of flavor. The vendors are friendly and knowledgeable, always happy to share recommendations or let you try something new. It’s not just a market but also a social hub: locals shopping for ingredients, tourists tasting street food, and groups of friends enjoying drinks together. With its central location and wide variety, it’s the ideal stop whether you want a quick bite, a foodie experience, or just to soak in the lively atmosphere of Copenhagen. In short, Torvehallerne is a top highlight of the city — stylish, delicious, and unforgettable.

Plentiful market with a variety of different fresh foods and eats all in one area. It is very close to the Nørreport Station, making it really accessible and convenient. There are juice shops, fresh fruits and vegetables, fish, and much more. You can come here for local shopping or to eat some really good food. This place has really good ice cream and juice as well! Highly recommend visiting.

Simply amazing selections of fresh everything. Definitely the place for foodies to hangout and have a drink as the afternoons are quite busy. Bring a basket and try something new or that you’ve never seen before 😋 stay hungry my friends

It’s a very stylish market with a wide selection of high-quality ingredients from various countries — from cheeses and olive oils to fresh seafood, beef, chicken, kitchenware, canned fish, baking tools, and fresh fruits and vegetables. There are also plenty of ready-to-eat options, including Spanish, Italian, and Danish dishes.

Yes, the sculpture is cool—but the real star of Thorvaldsens Museum is the building itself. The architecture and interior finishes are absolutely stunning. From the bold, unexpected paint colors to the intricate mosaic floors and rich murals, every detail feels intentional and iconic. It’s a visual feast and genuinely inspiring. I was also unexpectedly impressed by the permanent archaeological collections—especially the cameo collection, which is the most diverse and beautiful I’ve ever seen. Not just classical portraits of women, but also plants, animals, insects, and a range of stone and shell materials. It’s a thoughtful and unique display that goes beyond the expected. A beautiful way to spend 1–2 hours—and even better, Wednesdays are free!

I had longed to see the works of Thorvaldsen and the museum building itself is a masterpiece. I spent two hours and I think it's right. So unfortunate that in the app of the museum and behind the QR codes there were only Danish comments. At least the three I tried, after that I gave up. That would be a lot better to have the works' explanations also in English. Other than that I really enjoyed the stay!

Very nice museum, a bit unexpected on the visual section where they mixed the old statues with colorful, artistic video and you have to enjoy that with the audio that they provided for free. One of the best museums in my trip to Copenhagen.

Quite big museum, might take around 1-2 hours to see all while enjoying the art without rushing. Kind staff, not only sculptures, but also paintings and some interesting exhibitions. Wasn't on my list, but don't regret going there 🫡

Wonderful museum with a lot of amazing sculptures and paintings! Find all the cute dogs in all the old paintings, there's a lot of them! Free (within 48 hrs) if you go to the Nikolaj Kunsthal and/or Museum of Copenhagen! If you need to purchase tickets at the counter, there was no wait. Time well spent!

Free admission on Wednesdays. Good architecture and sculptures. They also blend in temporary exhibition among their permanent collection.

This museum is a perfect combination of art- but not just the art inside, but the building itself. Inside and out, it is an exhibition with equal level to the statues and exhibits inside. The ceilings especially, with no room the same, are bursting with colorful designs and patterns. Combine this with the floors, which are beautiful mosaics, you get an incredible atmosphere. Moving on from the building itself, the statues are all incredible. With an enormous array of art, it is hard to find something you don't like. Given, some are better than others (obviously), but I can assure you that you'll be able to learn a lot and see a lot walking around the building. Another thing to note is the personal collection of artifacts and books of the artist. It is filled with Greek and Roman pottery, coins, century-old books, and much more. This covers three or four rooms, and this is just as fascinating as the rest.

What a beautiful place. We stopped here as our final stop on the drive back into Copenhagen, after visiting Louisiana and Ordrupgaard — and it was absolutely worth it. Entrance was free, it wasn’t crowded (we came in late May, around 4pm), and parking nearby was super easy. I’d highly recommend it to any architecture enthusiast — a peaceful, inspiring visit off the usual tourist path.

Entry to this church is free, so there’s no need to buy tickets. It’s a truly breathtaking place, the interior is calming and beautifully designed. Every corner reveals a new perspective, especially as the sunlight filters through. We recommend taking a seat and simply enjoying the peaceful atmosphere for 15–20 minutes, without your phone. Just be present. And don’t skip the restroom, it’s surprisingly nice too!

One of the most beautiful churches in Copenhagen in my opinion. The architecture is amazing, build with yellow bricks entirely. Facade and the interior felt a bit gothic. Chairs with natural fiber weaving, add warmness to the cold feeling interior. You’ll love this place if you like photography.

One of my bucketlist checked! One of the most beautiful church I've ever seen. The interior and the lighting is out of this world. It's surreal and looks like a painting. From the main road, it really stands out. If you want to take a photo of the interior, be sure to come early (before the opening time at 10.00).

Stunning architecture and space. Easy to get to via public transit and free to access. Ensure you check their service schedule as they’re not open to the public during those times. Also closed on Mondays.

It's a very grand religious architecture. What makes it interesting is the design of the building's square and corners. It uses many technical aspects, including craftsmanship, mathematics, and of course, architectural principles. This is very striking and beautiful.

Grundtvigs Kirke—jolly fine Christian gem in Copenhagen! This towering brick beauty, named for hymn-writer Grundtvig, blends Gothic grace with Danish soul. Caught a divine concert at 7 PM on the 18th Sept 2025—pure bliss.
