Tivoli is an amusement park in the summer, market before Christmas and restaurant centre all the year round.

One of the most famous amusement parks in the world – but also a green park with romantic paths, lots of flowers and many nice restaurants and cafés. One of the big meeting places for Copenhageners.

Don’t miss one of the world’s most-photographed ladies!

The Little Mermaid

Hans Christian Andersen wrote the story about the Little Mermaid, Disney made the film and Copenhagen erected the statue in her honour. While you’re there, enjoy the beauty of Langelinie.

Amalienborg is easy to find – it’s right in the centre of the city!

Amalienborg

Would you like to see where Queen Margrethe lives? Don’t miss a visit to her beautiful palace in central Copenhagen! Parts of the palace are open to the public.

The pedestrian shopping precinct Strøget runs from Rådhuspladsen to Kongens Nytorv.
