Copenhagen must be the most easy-going major city in Europe. Harmonious, welcoming and hospitable, the capital of this little kingdom lets you explore it at your own pace. Here there are no sky- scrapers or intimidating financial centres to dwarf you. Instead, you will find yourself in a friendly village-like atmosphere with winding pedestrian streets, lakes, parks and squares. 

Built for people, it is much more like a "big city" than a major metropolis. In fact, Copen-hagen is a fun-loving, free-wheeling town where visitors are made to feel welcome and living - good living - is taken very seriously indeed. Street vendors, musicians, birds and church bells weave a symphony of sound.

And the shops - tempting you with the best of Danish design - are within easy walking distance of museums and galleries offering exciting new cultural experiences. At Copenhagen’s many cafés and restaurants you may sample a wide variety of Danish specialities as well as deli-cacies from all over the world. And if you arrive in our beautiful capital in the summer, you will not want to miss a visit to the world famous amusement park, Tivoli, which is situated in the very heart of the city.

So come take a tour of Queen Margrethe II’s city. Founded as early as 1167 it is still a modern fairytale city in the 1990s where the red-tiled roofs and green copper-clad spires of the eighteenth-century houses rub shoulders with advanced modern architecture.
