Tivoli Gardens

Tivoli Gardens is the world’s second-oldest amusement park and the inspiration for Disneyland. It's a must-see while you're in Copenhagen.

Rosenborg Palace

A Renaissance palace dating to the 17th century. Rosenborg Palace houses the Danish crown jewels, as well as a collection of weapons and a special vintage of wine, some bottles of which date to the 1600s.

Church of Our Saviour (Vor Frelsers Kirke)

A 17th-century baroque church. Its primary feature is the 300-foot spire, which you can pay to climb. It's 400 steps to the top, the last 150 of which are on the exterior of the spire. We think the price and the effort are worth it for the incredible views of the city.

Freetown Christiania

self-declared autonomous region of Copenhagen housing 850-1,000 residents that looks and feels like a giant hippie commune. It's fun to walk through, and there's some good food, but you won't need to spend much time here.
