Five days lets you add Aarhus or the coast, since nowhere in Denmark is more than four hours away.\r\nIs Copenhagen expensive? | Yes. Dorms from \u20ac32, beer at \u20ac7 to \u20ac9, restaurant mains \u20ac25 to \u20ac35. Self-catering, bakery breakfasts and street food markets bring a day from \u20ac120 down to around \u20ac70, which is what most travellers here do.\r\nShould I rent a bike in Copenhagen? | Yes, on the first morning. It costs \u20ac12 to \u20ac20 a day, the lanes are separated from traffic, and it is how the city is designed to work. Learn the hand signals and keep right.\r\nDoes Denmark use the euro? | No, the Danish krone. Cards are used for essentially everything and cash is close to obsolete, so you may never need to change money at all.\r\nIs harbour swimming really safe? | Yes. The water in central Copenhagen is clean and monitored, and Islands Brygge and Kalvebod B\u00f8lge are purpose-built for it. Locals swim from May to September, and it costs nothing.\r\nIs Tivoli worth it? | It is a garden as much as a theme park, opened in 1843, and beautiful at night. Entry plus rides adds up, so treat it as an evening out rather than a full day, and go in December if you can.\r\nWhat is Christiania? | A self-governing community in a former military area, established in 1971.
