Weekend in Copenhagen

We kicked off June and the summer with a long weekend in Copenhagen. The weekend started with an rather early flight on a Friday, 6 in the morning, but after leaving our luggage at the hotel we rented bikes that many of our friends recommended and set off with the whole day in front of us to explore. 
Actually this was the first time we rented bikes in a large city and for Copenhagen it was perfect! The whole city is adapted for it, lots of bike paths and plenty of space in the traffic. Another important thing, the drivers were careful.
After three day there we had probably seen most of the 'tourist' parts. Our favourite places were along the harbour with all the nice places to spend days just watching time pass by, especially Christianshavn with its relaxing and energizing atmosphere. Not to forget all the parks that are amazing and plenty.
Another thing of importance to us is the food :) which was great. Sea food and of course I finally got to try out open-faced sandwiches (smörrebröd) which were a work of art. Recommend strongly restaurants Aamanns and Musling.

Copenhagen is for sure one of the best cities in Europe.

  1. Det ser väldigt gott ut på bilden! Jag har inte varit i Köpenhamn på många år, många nya modernare hus och skyskrapor verkar ha uppenbarat sej! Vet att arkitekterna till det nya kvarteret i Sheffield där gamla Castle Market låg har inspirerats av Köpenhamn :) de vill göra ett River Quarter som liknar Christanshavn :)

  3. Håller med!
    K-hamn är perfekt för oss skåningar när vi vill bli stadsmänniskor för nån dag. Har aldrig cyklat där men låter som en verkligt god idé.
