Capital of design, that is Køpenhavn

Looking for a place to visit for a weekend trip? Copenhagen it is!!!  The whole city breathes design and relaxation, locals are very friendly and the food is amazing. Perfect location for a 2/3/4 days trip. 

Hire a bike and cruise across the city, stroll around in the many design museums, shop till you drop in the longest pedestrian street of Europe or in all the small boutiques Copenhagen knows, drink your take away coffee or wine on the street, in the park or even at the cemetery…! Oh and don't forget to visit Christiania - a kind of tolerated hippy area.

Does it feel like I am promoting this capital? Well, hope that I convince you with this post. I was - and still am - amazed by all the beauty and variety of activities the city offers.

 Danish Design fills the city atmosphere and can be found in the streets, at each and every corner, in the shops, in museums, in bars, hotels. Really everywhere
 
    (Kunstindustrimuseet, Design museum)                         (Ecological design kitchenware)

            (Fancy design hotel 'key drop' in desk)

Great Views
                                             (Nyhavn)                                                               (on our route picturesque little church)

(city view from Vor Freisers Kirke,                                (courtyard Kunstindustrimuseet)
                                                         Christiania)


Food is a very good reason for visiting Copenhague!!
For foodlovers the city is a Walhalla with Fresh, biological, divers food. They also pay much attention to decoration and creativity. 
                                         (free water in bars flavored                                  (Smørrebrod: tastes good wit
                                                             with vegetables)                                                           everything)
                               (In our lovely and perfectly located hotel Ibsen we had the best breakfast buffet)


 Typically Køpenhavn
                                                                                  (Street art)
                       (Buy your coffee to go in Jægersbrogade)            (nope, this is not Amsterdam….)
