Denmark's capital city sits across two coastal islands, Amager and Zealand. You're never far from the sea in this historic port town. The Oresund Bridge connects Copenhagen to Sweden's Malmö and wooden boats bob up and down in the glistening harbour. This forward-thinking city is clean, green, and compact, making it easy to explore by foot or bicycle. From Rosenborg to Christiansborg, opulent palaces lend a stately elegance to the city centre. Yet tucked in between the baroque churches and neoclassical mansions, you'll find chic gallery spaces and ultra-modern streetwear boutiques. Copenhagen is the epicentre of New Nordic cuisine, put on the fine dining map by Noma. Airy, modern eateries showcase organic, locally grown produce in fresh, innovative ways. Street food markets frame the city's open-air squares and intimate cafes line the Nyhavn waterways, the perfect settings to soak up the city's day-to-night buzz.
