Here is an extraordinary walking tour through the very heart of Copenhagen, one of the most charming capitals in Northern Europe, located on the eastern coast of Denmark, along the Øresund Strait, more precisely on the eastern coast of the island of Zealand and partly on Amager. Copenhagen is the largest city and the capital of Denmark, as well as a modern and welcoming city with a rich history, green spaces, atmospheric canals, and impressive architecture. The city combines Scandinavian functionality with the colorful past of the monarchy and the modern spirit of contemporary Europe. We begin our walking tour at Højbro Plads, one of the city’s central squares, full of life and surrounded by elegant townhouses. Heading along Ved Stranden toward Christiansborg Slotsplads, we reach the heart of Danish power – Christiansborg Palace. This is the seat of the Danish Parliament, Government, and Supreme Court, and its courtyard – RigsdagsgÃ¥rden – reminds us of the country’s long constitutional tradition. We then pass Børsen – the former 17th-century stock exchange, famous for its unique spiral spire formed from intertwined dragon tails. From here, we cross a bridge and head to HavnePromenaden – a modern, waterfront promenade offering beautiful views of the canal and harbor architecture. The route continues to the city’s most photogenic spot – Nyhavn. This historic port district delights with its colorful townhouses, moored sailboats, and countless cafés. We cross the Nyhavnsbroen bridge to reach Kongens Nytorv – the largest square in the city, home to the Royal Danish Theatre and the statue of Admiral Niels Juel. The walk ends with a return to the HavnePromenaden, offering a picturesque view of the canal and historic waterfronts. It’s the perfect conclusion to a walk through a city that blends royal tradition with a modern lifestyle and outstanding public spaces.
