Copenhagen, the largest city and capital of Denmark, is hugely popular with visitors thanks to a mix of modern attractions and old school charm. From the Little Mermaid to the free-town of Christiania, this city has its own unique character, where historical buildings rub shoulders with slick shopping streets, all brought together by its network of canals.

Insider Tip:It is worth to purchase a CPH card and enjoy even more of Copenhagen!
I really loved the city, which is not as big as I expected. You can do everything on foot, so you don't need the metro or other public transport.
Insider Tip:Do a boat trip through the city! and if you have plenty of time go to the Experimentarium. They recommend about 4-5 hours for that, it took us 8 as there are so many interessting things to do and see.
I'm italian but I live in Nordasjælland since august 2012 and I don't have any plans to go back to Italy! I love to visit Cph very often, it's simply great! It would be easy to complain about the costliness but don't forget that this is Scandinavia! Cph is for sure a not cheap destination!
Insider Tip:Christiania is not just pusher street ;) Have a walk in it's little streets!

I traveled to Copenhagen for Sensation White. Copenhagen was a very interesting city. VERY expensive unfortunately.
