PORT & SHOPPING MAP
HISTORY
Copenhagen is one of the favored European capitals, often described as a charming provincial town with the lively atmosphere of a
capital city. It is situated on Sjaelland (pronounced Zealand), the largest island belonging to Denmark, sitting east of the main landmass
and is the largest city in Denmark. The city is an orderly layout of canals and streets with several parks dotted throughout, giving it an
instant appeal.
Oslo
After World War II, most of the old center of Copenhagen was pedestrianized making it a paradise for shoppers who can admire at
leisure, the latest marvels of Danish design and quietly enjoy a typical Danish open sandwich while watching the world go by. Still, one of
Glasgow
the best ways the locals (and visitors) get around the city is by bicycle, a familiar sight on the streets.
