3 Days in Copenhagen

Walk down Gothersgade towards Kongens Have, the King's Garden. This beautiful park really comes alive in the summer, but it's worth a visit at all times of year. I highly recommend visiting Rosenborg Castle (which is located in the gardens), especially the Treasury, where the crown jewels are kept!

Now it's probably time for lunch. There are plenty of options nearby. I suggest a light lunch to save room for dinner! Torvehallerne is an indoor food market with lots of easy lunch options. Alternatively, grab a hot dog from DØP or one of the other hot dog vendors in this area. And I am serious -- you do need to try the hot dogs while you're here!!

For the afternoon, head towards Købmagergade, one of Copenhagen's main pedestrian shopping streets, to explore. Stop at the Round Tower (Rundetaarn) to get a gorgeous view of the city! Then wander around the city center to check out all the shops and admire the charming old architecture! You can't miss Strøget, one of the longest pedestrian shopping streets in Europe. If you want to take a coffee or pastry break, stop by Illum and go to the Original Coffee on the rooftop, or La Glace for some of their famous cakes!

When you're done exploring and shopping, it's time for dinner. Let's do something fun!! If the weather is nice, head to Broens Street Food, across the bridge from Nyhavn. There are lots of food stalls there and you can sit by the water and enjoy the view and vibes! If you'd rather have a sit down meal indoors (or Broens is closed), Bazaar and Llama have great food and atmospheres. Make sure to book a table if you're going to one of those.

If you've still got energy after dinner, head over to Boulebar on Nørregade for a fun evening activity (this is best for groups)! Or Ved Stranden 10, a cozy wine bar.
