10 days in Copenhagen Itinerary

Founded in the 10th century as a Viking fishing village, Copenhagen has morphed into the cultural, political, and economic powerhouse of the country.

Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at National Gallery of Denmark and Galleri Beck-Fischer. Let the collections at National Museum of Denmark and Visit Carlsberg Brand Store capture your imagination. Change things up with these side-trips from Copenhagen: Frederiksborg Castle (in Hillerod), Kronborg (in Helsingoer) and Louisiana Museum of Modern Art (in Humlebaek). There's lots more to do: steep yourself in history at Rosenborg Castle, take in panoramic vistas at Rundetarn, wander the streets of Stroeget, and appreciate the extensive heritage of Nyhavn.
