Copenhagen
Located on the islands
of Zealand (Danish: Sjælland)
and Amager in the Danish Straits,
Copenhagen (Danish: København)
is the capital and largest city of Denmark.
Since 1999
(the bridge actually opened to the public in
in 2000),
Copenhagen has been connected to
Malmö,
Sweden
by the
Oresund Bridge
(Danish: Øresundsbroen;
Swedish Öresundsbron),
which is a combined four-lane road and two-track rail bridge.
It is a little hard to pin down the exact population of Copenhagen, because the city limits
are not well-defined. However, if you total the population of the 33 municipalities
close to, and including, the municipality of Copenhagen, as of
2007,
the total was 1,825,814. On the other hand, if one only counts the population for
the contiguous built-up area, the population figure only comes out to about 1.1 million.
There are many attractions and places of interest that you will want to see if you visit
Copenhagen, but there are two that you will surely not want to miss:
- The Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen harbor - This is small, but highly distinctive
and famous statue which sits on a rock in the harbor. It was created by the Edward Eriksen,
and is inspired by
the fairy tale of The Little Mermaid, written by Danish author, Hans Christian Andersen.
- Tivoli Gardens - A famous amusement park, which is in fact one of the oldest in
the world, dating back to 1843.
On your visit to Copenhagen, we also recommend that you visit the Nyhavn area if you get a chance.
This is a popular area with many bars and restaurants lining the streets bordering a picturesque harbor.
It's a wonderful, if crowded, location to sit outside and enjoy at an al fresco meal or drink on a sunny
day. On cooler days, it's easier to get a seat, and many restaurants will thoughtfully supply a blanket
to cover your legs.
