I'm not much of a sightseeing kind of person, but Copenhagen is a really pleasant city to just wander around in by foot, or by bicycle along the river. I prefer walking though since I'm clumsy on a bike and also I don’t have health insurance.

Situated in downtown Copenhagen, this amusement park is a must see for tourists; mixing beautiful traditional gardens with modern fairground attractions, and great places to eat. Spend the day and then stay to see the lights after dark.

Little Mermaid Statue
No visit to Copenhagen is complete without taking a trip to the harbour to see the Little Mermaid statue; erected as a tribute to Copenhagen's famous former resident - poet and author Hans Christian Andersen.
The Black Diamond Copenhagen Royal Library | Søren Kirkegaards Plads 1, 1214.
A library seems an unlikely stop on a holiday, but you don't have to go in if you don't want to. All you have to do is admire this shiny black granite building as a symbol of modern architecture and design.
