Copenhagen is a vibrant, modern city whose fascinating past coexists with the very latest trends in
architecture, design and fashion. This is a city that presents its myriad attractions against
a waterside backdrop that helps make it of one of the most beautiful cities in northern Europe.
Tivoli Gardens is usually top of everyone's list of places to visit. It is a beautiful, romantic park with a wealth of
high-class restaurants and stages for music and theatre, most of it free for visitors, and an amusement
park. Lanterns in the trees and bushes create a unique ambience.
Several of Copenhagen's museums enjoy a deserved international reputation for their rich collections and
inventive temporary exhibitions. The biggest museum is Nationalmuseet (the National Museum), but there are
plenty more specialised museums such as the Třjhusmuseet (the Armoury Museum) and Teater Museet (the
Theatre Museum).
Copenhagen has a thriving theatrical scene, centred around the Royal Theatre on Kongens Nytorv, where,
uniquely, world class ballet, opera and theatre companies coexist, but the theatrical scene also embraces
everything from live comedy to musicals.
Copenhagen's night life is rich and varied and, as you would expect from this most hospitable of cities,
very welcoming. Whether your taste is for cosy bars and cafés, or live music and cutting edge clubs,
Copenhagen has a place to suit your taste.
