An overlooked romantic fairy tale kingdom | Copenhagen, a spur-of-the-moment trip

In July 2022, a spontaneous trip to Copenhagen. As we all know, the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen, which accompanied us through childhood, originated here. In a moment of impulsiveness, I bought a ticket for the next day. I departed from Hamburg, Germany, not far from Denmark. Since I couldn't get a train ticket at such short notice, I bought a Flixbus ticket instead, which took about 5.5 hours. The fantasy begins here... Got on the bus, after two and a half hours of driving suddenly entered a pitch-black environment, and we all got off the bus. After getting off the bus with a bewildered look, I found myself on a huge ship ⛴️... with duty-free shops, dining, and more. Opening Google maps, I realized that I was floating on the sea. So, blowing in the sea breeze, I began to make a travel plan... 🌟Highlight features: 1. Mermaid 🧜‍♀️ A bronze sculpture based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "The Little Mermaid". Every tourist will go to the place to take photos. I think passing by, the surrounding lake and greenery are very beautiful. Address: Langelinie, 2100 København Ø, Denmark 2. Xingang Copenhagen is a place of charm, with many beer houses and restaurants. 3. Organ Church 💒 Suitable for taking photos, a bit far from the city center, about half an hour by bus. Address: På Bjerget 14B, 2400 København NV, Denmark Monday closed 4. Qu Fu Li Park 🎠 Disney's predecessor, it is recommended to spend at least half a day here. There are fireworks before closing at night. The fireworks are beautiful, but the music doesn't quite match. The park has a separate app that can be downloaded in advance. Location: Vesterbrogade 3, 1630 København V, Denmark 5. Changing of the guard ceremony of the Royal Danish Guard. Wearing a furry hat in the middle of summer is a bit ridiculous but interesting. The exchange ceremony in Sweden was simple and elegant. However, the grandiose parade with a marching band lasted for a couple of hours. At 12:00 noon every day, it is recommended to write early so that you can squeeze to the front of the crowd. Address: Amalienborg Palace (Danish Palace) 6. ❤️ My top recommended destination: Louisiana Museum of Modern Art Suitable for art and leisure companions. This is a place where art and nature blend together. It is also a must-visit spot for me on this trip. Two years ago, I saw an exhibition of Louisiana in Shanghai and have been thinking about it ever since. After visiting, it exceeded my already high expectations. It is located by the sea, and the art gallery leads directly to the ocean. After a tiring stroll, you can sit by the sea. Distance: Far from the city center, about one hour by Re train or 40 minutes by car. Located in the coastal area of northern Copenhagen. Duration: Suitable for a day of leisure, at least half a day. It is also very suitable for staying there for a weekend. Location: Gl Strandvej 13, 3050 Humlebæk, Denmark 🌟Restaurant: 1. Captain H Chinese BBQ & Korean Bistro Chinese barbecue! I was so moved because there is no barbecue in the city where I live. The price is on the high side. 2. The Olive Local internet-famous restaurant, it's best to make a reservation on their official website in advance. I made a reservation in advance, but because I met a friend from Denmark and decided to eat together at the last minute, there was no available seat to add. However, after negotiating and waiting, we finally got to eat. 🔒Tip: 1. After 10pm, all restaurants are closed!!! The open bars only serve drinks, there is no food available. ⁉️‼️‼️ This is an absolute trap. It took me five or six hours to get here on the first day, and the several restaurants I planned to go to were closed. When I started to settle for less, I found that all the restaurants were closed!! I walked for an hour or two and almost covered the entire city on the first night. 2. If traveling independently, all train tickets can be purchased on the Omio app. Subway and bus tickets can be purchased at subway or bus stations. 3. Many restaurants are closed on Sundays. Denmark has many Michelin restaurants with good value for money.
