Rosenborg Castle
s正正好
Rosenborg Palace stands quietly in the King's Garden in the center of Copenhagen. As a model of Danish Renaissance architecture, it was ordered to be built by Christian IV in 1606 and completed in 1633 after 27 years. It is based on the Dutch Renaissance style, with red brick walls and bronze eaves, and a simple and rustic atmosphere. On the three-story main building, the towering tower and the spiral roof point straight to the sky, and the painted marble on the top adds to the luxury. Surrounded by a moat, the north suspension bridge connects to the main entrance, and the "Green Bridge" in the south is hidden in the garden. It is a landmark landscape in Copenhagen.
Amalienborg Palace
横竖是二温小迪
We arrived at 2pm and were lucky enough to see the Royal Guards' Changing of the Guards. I felt that the guards' hats were too high, which made the guards look shorter than they actually were, and they didn't look so beautiful when they walked.
We didn't go into the palace, but just walked around outside. The exterior of the palace is quite spectacular. It is said that when the queen lives here, the Danish flag will be raised.
If you want to see the cavalry changing of the guard, it is recommended to come at 12 noon.
New Harbor

Nyhavn, Denmark is a landmark attraction in Copenhagen. It is an artificial canal built between 1669 and 1673. The canal is lined with colorful townhouses from the 17th and 18th centuries, which are rich in color and form a unique landscape. Andersen once lived here and created many classic fairy tales, adding cultural heritage to it. You can stroll and take a boat tour here to experience the rich Nordic style and cozy atmosphere.
Tivoli Gardens

This is the best recreation and leisure place of Denmark. The park is very beautiful and well designed and maintained. There are lots of activities for kids and families. I did enjoy a lot here even for the short time. Highly recommended!
Grundtvig’s Church
老王自由行
The Organ Church is reached by taking two buses from the city center. It got this nickname because a group of decorations inside the church look like an organ. The church is not big, but it has a unique facade, high ceilings and symmetrical design. It is also very spectacular. It is a must-see attraction when visiting Copenhagen.

Copenhagen is the largest city and port in Denmark. It is also the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Denmark, and the largest city in Northern Europe. Denmark has also had a glorious history. Parts of Norway and Germany have been ruled by Denmark. Even earlier, Britain was also a part of Denmark. Copenhagen has many old medieval buildings, and it is also at the forefront of modern times. On one hand, it has a modern and modern style, and on the other hand, it has an ancient historical tradition. It is a veritable historical and cultural capital in the world. The City Hall Square is located in the center of Copenhagen and has a history of more than 800 years. The central building of the square, the City Hall, has been burned down many times. The current building was built in 1905. It combines the styles of ancient Denmark and the Italian Renaissance. It is mainly used for wedding ceremonies and official receptions. The gilded statue above the main entrance is the founder of Copenhagen-Archbishop Absalon. On the left side of the top of the City Hall is a 110-meter-high bell tower, and above the bell tower is the famous "World Clock". When most people mention Denmark, the first thing that comes to mind is the man who accompanied us throughout our childhood - Andersen. Andersen is the "sun of world children's literature". From "The Little Match Girl" and "The Ugly Duckling" to "The Daughter of the Sea" and "The Princess and the Pea", he has woven a colorful fairy tale world for countless people. Denmark is also synonymous with the fairy tale world, and even the entire City Hall Square in Copenhagen has a fairy tale color.
