What's included in Copenhagen & Christiansborg Palace Private Walking Tour
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Nyhavn
The houses surrounding Nyhavn are all nearly 350 years old. They have been renovated to look a lot more colourful and with the hopes of changing the vibe of the area from gloomy to cosy. In the 1970s, the street was turned into a pedestrian street. Today, Nyhavn holds the nickname "The longest outdoor bar in Scandinavia" due to its many restaurants, pubs, and cafés open 24 hours a day. Nyhavn was once the home of author Hans Christian Andersen.
Copenhagen King's New Square
Kongens Nytorv is a square next to Nyhavn with an equestrian statue of King Christian V, who had the square built. Many historical buildings can be seen around the square: • The Magasin du Nord (French for “Shop of the North”) is a Danish department store chain whose flagship store is located at Kongens Nytorv. • The Hotel d’Angleterre (French Hotel of England). Through the years, this hotel has housed famous names such as Winston Churchill, Bill Clinton, Ozzy Osbourne, Niel Diamond and many more.
The King’s Garden is the oldest park and royal garden in Copenhagen. Established by Christian IV, it was designed in the Renaissance style.
