Danish Theme Parks
Denmark is home to the oldest and the second oldest working amusement parks in the world. Bakken enjoys the renown of being the oldest, whilst Tivoli Gardens is the second. Both are in the region of Copenhagen and both have retained their initial charms offering thrilling modern rides alongside historic wooden roller coasters.
Rosenborg Castle
Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen is a beautiful Renaissance building built in the 17th century. Wander manicured gardens and enjoy photogenic views of the castle's ornate spires and rich facade. Inside, you'll be greeted with the Crown Jewels of Denmark and royal art treasures. You can also explore lavish, well-preserved rooms that still retain the charming 17th-century furnishings.
Copenhagen Canal Boat Tour
A canal boat tour offers much more than a pleasant cruise along the water – it gives you a whole new way to see the city and its sights. With iconic attractions like the colourful district of Nyhavn and the famous Little Mermaid statue inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale, touring the canals of Copenhagen is magic, especially at sunset.
Dyrehaven
Take a walk in the wilds of nature at the lush forest of Dyrehaven. A short journey north of Copenhagen, this area has lots of well-defined walking routes and even more free-roaming, wild deer. There are fallow, red and sika deer and their numbers total around 2,000. It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a magical place in all seasons.
