Copenhagen, Denmark
Copenhagen (København in Danish) is the capital of Denmark. The contemporary Danish name for the city is a corruption of the original designation for the city Købmandshavn, meaning Merchants’ Harbour. The English name Copenhagen is derived from the German name of the city, Kopenhagen. Copenhagen is home to the national parliament, government, and monarchy, which are all situated in the heart of the city. The first fort that later became the city was founded in 1167. #travel #denmark #copenhagen

What to see in Copenhagen?
Copenhagen has plenty to offer the art lover in the Statens Museum (opens at 10.00, closed Mondays) and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art (opens at 11.00, also closed Mondays). The former houses the royal family’s collection of European art through the centuries; the latter has an important collection of modern sculptures displayed in its gardens beside the sea, and the international modern art is in several galleries. (The Louisiana Museum is a 36 minute train ride from the centre of Copenhagen on the S-train’s Line C – get off at Humlebæk station.) #travel #copenhagen

What to see in Copenhagen?
For those who like palaces and castles there are two: Christiansborg Slot which houses the Danish Parliament on an island in the city (you can go in the grounds and church, but the rest is government offices); and Rosenborg Slot, a fairy-tale castle built in the 17th century (restricted opening hours outside June – October, so check first). Then there is the Marmorkirken, a neo-baroque church said to be inspired by St Peter’s in Rome, and the architecturally interesting Town Hall (Rådhus) full of Romanticism and medieval features, but in fact designed in 1905. #travel #copenhagen
