WishList: CityTrip - Copenhagen (Denmark)

I have never been to Scandinavia. Yet. Such a pity and something that I really need to change. When building myself a travel map last week I noticed that I visited most of west, south and middle Europe, but not much else. I still need to see the Nordics and all of Eastern Europe. So there is work to do. I need to start planning trips. A brand new batch of days off from work is waiting for me in 2015. And some of them, I would like to use to go to Copenhagen. I love the sound of the Danish language and on all pictures everything just looks wonderful.

 

Here are some of the things like would like to see and do when I am there.

 

 

The Little Mermaid

 

A famous landmark so I definitely need a duck picture there. Also, the statue has a lovely backdrop next to the water.

 

 

 

 

Nyhavn

 

I love colored houses and I love the water side. This will be the perfect day for me to sit and have a drink after a long day of sight seeing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

National Library of Copenhagen

 

I wrote about it before (http://ohtheplacesyouwillgoandsee.blogspot.com/2014/10/musthaveseen-libraries-around-europe.html ) and I still really want to see this library. On the pictures it looks amazing so I hope I'm able to book a library tour and see al of it with my own eyes.  

 

 

 

 

Den Blå  Planet (aquarium)

This is Northern Europe's largest aquarium. It has been a long time since I visited one so it would be great to go.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Christiania

 

More colored houses, much to my delight. This is also a car-free area that is very oriented on a green way of living. Sadly, it is suggested not to take any pictures in this area and the area it mentioned to be quite unsafe by Copenhagen's tourist website. Still worth a visit though.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Frederiksborg Palace

 

This palace and its environment simply look amazing. It is also house to the Museum of National History.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Louisiana Museum of Modern Art

 

I don't always get modern art but some of it I really like a lot. I also quite enjoy the strangeness of some of it. And this museum as has a nice garden for an after visit coffee. Perfect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And the list goes on. Copenhagen seems to be a city with many different types of tourist attractions. I always enjoy cities that are next to the water. Bring on the tours by boat and the harbour walks by night.  I am looking forward to my visit already!
