About Copenhagen
Why Visit Denmark's Copenhagen
Copenhagen, the cultural and geographic bridge between mainland Europe and Scandinavia, is often called one of Europe's most enjoyable and livable cities. With a perfect mix of shopping, culture, and vibrant nightlife, it still retains the charm of a cozy city with an intimate, friendly atmosphere.
Known as the world’s most bike-friendly city, cycling is one of the best ways to explore Copenhagen. The city's coastline stretches over 7,000 km (4,350 mi), meaning you're never far from a beautiful beach. No wonder Denmark is considered one of the happiest countries!
For a truly unique dining experience, Copenhagen offers everything from delicious pastries and open-faced sandwiches to Michelin-starred restaurants. For those seeking cultural and historical insights, must-visit museums include The National Gallery of Denmark, Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, and the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek.
As the historical and spiritual home of the Vikings, Copenhagen lets you dive into the Viking spirit while exploring modern architecture alongside ancient history. And with its title as the European Green Capital of 2014, Copenhagen sets a great example for a green economy.
If you plan to continue your journey in Scandinavia, consider taking the modern and fast train to Sweden. Check the Copenhagen to Stockholm train schedule when planning your trip.
