Things To Do
Davids Samling - Davids Collection (Free Entry)
Some rich Danish guy named David opened a gorgeous museum of the incredible artifacts he has collected so that everyone can access them and learn from the history. Collection comes largely from the Middle East. This is one of my favorites.
Tivoli - An amusment park right in the City
Tivoli is an iconic amusement park right in the heart of the city. It has been open since 1843 and is home to the oldest continuously operating roller coaster. Just walking around the grounds is a wonderful expierience and always decorated for the season.
