| Copenhagen Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Entrance to Tivoli Gardens Entrance to Tivoli Gardens Joseph Hollick In 1167 Copenhagen was a tiny village called “Havn” which king Valdemar I gave to his trustee, the bishop Absalon of Roskilde. Since then it gradually grew to be the first city of Denmark, in part because the harbour of Roskilde became inaccessible to the larger trading ships. In 1417 Copenhagen became the capital of Denmark. It’s now by far the largest and most important town in Denmark, with numerous Museums and the hippest Nightlife in the country. It has an old center and some interesting town development schemes of the 18th, 19th and 20th century. The royal palaces are a sight to see; but the squatters quarter of Christiania is equally remarkable. Of course one should visit Copenhagen's most famous attraction, the little mermaid statue near the Churchillpark. The little mermaid statue is, well, 'little', sometimes dissappointing tourists. A more impressive sight would be the Gefion fountain. But these are things one should experience oneself. _________Sights Edit This Little Mermaid Little Mermaid Joseph Hollick Display all or display just: Castles Hotspots general Show best rated on top | Show in alphabetical order [Add Sight] Carlsberg Edit This The Carlsberg building, home of the famous Danish brewery.

Today Danish are known for their reductive functional design with takes objects to their most essential form. It seems almost impossible that this is the same that in the 19th century was swept by the Romantic movement that leaded to the so called Danish Golden Age. In Copenhagen, more than 50 museums all tell their own story about the land, the city and it’s people. Each story different and none complete. If you should venture to try to see them all, there is a special ticket which allows you to see as many as possible in one, two or three days. Some museums also have special days when no admission is charged. Outside Copenhagen Louisiana and ARKEN are also worth a visit.

Most clubs only begin to fill up around midnight. New clubs and bars spring up regularly. Some of the newer additions include: Subsonic, featuring a 'preserved' Bier Keller corner, a large dance floor and a perfect copy of a SAS lounge with original aircraft seats. The music is predominantly 80’s dance. Also new is Fever in the old X-Ray club, which is a Hip hop and R&B club. A relaxed lounge area makes it a good place for an earlier start, with the dance floor picking up around midnight Friday/Saturday only. For a completely different experience, there's Base Camp, a hangar like venue on the newly revamped military island, Holmen. As well as a nightclub and 'The north's biggest restaurant' with 600 seats, it's got an outdoor grill area with live music. An interesting pre club bar is Stereo Bar around Israels Plads, which offers 70’s retro decor easy listening and lava lamps. Music ranges from trip hop, drum & bass to latin/jazz. Ideal Bar, in Vesterbro is also an early starter, which picks up speed as the night wears on, developing into a fully fledged dance club featuring funk, latin, easy listening and swing beat. Clubs and venues : Vega, one of the city's most characteristic venues, features both big names from the rock and dance world and underground acts on it's smaller stage. Based in a 1950's trade union building, the interior has been retained right up to the fifties glass light shades giving it a unique atmosphere, from its zigzag tiled floors to its 60’s mural decked bar. For a more underground feel, Stengade 30, in Nørrebro features the best of Danish and international rock and dance acts, usually with an all-night club to follow. Also in Nørrebro, Rust, a primarily live music/dance venue has an outdoor yard and bar. Its packed club nights have a relaxed free-style dance-floor policy. Pure dance clubs are also thick on the ground, Fever, Slide and Nasa, all in Baron Boltens Gård are worth a visit. However, as Nasa is a private club, it may be hard for visitors to get in - admission are preferably granted non-members who look like models or money. Right next to Tivoli in the old Jazzhouse Slukefter there's Club Mantra which play perhaps the best R&B and hip-hop in town. A luxurious interior, white leather sofas and a panoramic mural of Copenhagen at dusk, combined with the beats makes this THE place for cool Copenhageners. Over in Østerbro there's the more established Park Diskotek, the relaxed home of happy house. Copenhagen's gay scene is loosely based around Sebastian and the popular three storey Pan Disco, as the focal point for dancing. You might try to use the mobile night life guide Mobileclubbing that also lists all the gay clubs. It is found on your mobile phone on wap.mobileclubbing.net. For jazz, Copenhagen Jazz House is the best option. With the renewed interest in new Danish jazz, this intimate showcase club features international and Danish acts, with a club night on weekends is popular with the younger Copenhagen jazz crowd.

Copenaghen (København in danese) è la capitale della Danimarca. Il nome della citta in danese è una corruzione di Købmandshavn, che significa Porto dei Mercanti. Copenaghen, NyHavn (Giugno 2002)
[modifica]
GeografiaCopenaghen è situata sulla costa orientale dell'isola di Zelanda (Sjælland) e in parte sull'isola Amager, di fronte allo stretto di Øresund, sul lato opposto del quale si trovano le città svedesi di Malmö e Landskrona. 1,9 milioni di persone vivono nell'area metropolitana di Copenaghen; di queste, 500.000 vivono nel comune di Copenaghen, 90.000 nel comune di Frederiksberg, altre 500.000 nella Contea di Copenhagen, e le restanti in comuni vicini. La regione di Øresund, che consiste della Zelanda orientale e della Scania occidentale (in Svezia), ha una popolazione di 2,8 milioni di persone.
[modifica]
CulturaCopenaghen viene costantemente classificata come una delle migliori città del mondo come qualità della vita in diversi sondaggi internazionali, nonostante l'alto costo della vita. Strøget, una lunga via pedonale commerciale nel centro di Copenaghen, è la più lunga del suo tipo in tutto il mondo. Se la Danimarca è il regno della ragione, come dice il detto, allora Copenaghen è la metropoli dell'educazione e della civiltà. I suoi abitanti le praticano entrambe, sia tra di loro che con i visitatori stranieri. Spesso aggiungendoci un pizzico di vivacità
[modifica]
CucinaCopenaghen offre una grande varietà di buoni ristoranti e modeste trattorie, tutte deliziose testimoni della passione danese per la buona cucina. L'intera città infatti è il paradiso dei gourmet, con centinaia di piccoli negozi che vendono di tutto, dai gelati fino alla pasticceria sopraffina.
[modifica]
StoriaGiardino Tivoli di notte Copenaghen fu un villaggio di pescatori fino alla metà del XII secolo, quando crebbe in importanza dopo essere divenuta possesso del vescovo Absalon, che la fortificò nel 1167. L'eccellente porto incoraggiò la crescita di Copenaghen fino a che divenne un importante centro di commercio (da cui il suo nome). Venne ripetutamente attaccata dalla Lega Anseatica. Nel 1658-59 fu sottoposta a un duro assedio da parte degli svedesi guidati da Carlo X. Nel 1801 una flotta britannica guidata da Horatio Nelson vi combatté una grande battaglia, la Battaglia di Copenaghen, contro la marina danese. Quando i vascelli della marina britannica bombardarono Copenaghen nel 1807, per impedire che la Danimarca arrendesse la sua flotta a Napoleone, la città subì gravi danni e centinaia furono le vittime. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale, Copenaghen fu occupata dalle truppe tedesche, così come il resto della nazione, dall'aprile 1940 fino al maggio 1945. Dal dopoguerra la crescita della città è proseguita notevolmente. Kongens Nytorv in inverno

In Copenhagen, more than 50 museums all tell their own story about the land, the city and it’s people. Each story different and none complete. If you should venture to try to see them all, there is a special ticket which allows you to see as many as possible in one, two or three days. Some museums also have special days when no admission is charged. Outside Copenhagen Louisiana and ARKEN are also worth a visit.

As is a trend among today’s museum builders, architect Søren Robert Lund made ARKEN the showpiece of its exhibitions. The museum was opened in 1996 and has its focal point on all forms of Danish, Scandinavian and international art from 1945 and onward. The building is organised around the imposing main room which, like a huge banana penetrates the other spaces. type: general World66 rating: [rate it] address: Skovvej 100, Ishøj Strandpark, Ishøj url: www.arken.dk tel: 4543540222 Louisiana Edit This From the sculpture garden From the sculpture garden photo by: peterw Also a visit to this museum is an experience in itself.

Most clubs only begin to fill up around midnight. New clubs and bars spring up regularly. Some of the newer additions include: Subsonic, featuring a 'preserved' Bier Keller corner, a large dance floor and a perfect copy of a SAS lounge with original aircraft seats. The music is predominantly 80’s dance. Also new is Fever in the old X-Ray club, which is a Hip hop and R&B club. A relaxed lounge area makes it a good place for an earlier start, with the dance floor picking up around midnight Friday/Saturday only. For a completely different experience, there's Base Camp, a hangar like venue on the newly revamped military island, Holmen. As well as a nightclub and 'The north's biggest restaurant' with 600 seats, it's got an outdoor grill area with live music. An interesting pre club bar is Stereo Bar around Israels Plads, which offers 70’s retro decor easy listening and lava lamps. Music ranges from trip hop, drum & bass to latin/jazz. Ideal Bar, in Vesterbro is also an early starter, which picks up speed as the night wears on, developing into a fully fledged dance club featuring funk, latin, easy listening and swing beat. Clubs and venues : Vega, one of the city's most characteristic venues, features both big names from the rock and dance world and underground acts on it's smaller stage. Based in a 1950's trade union building, the interior has been retained right up to the fifties glass light shades giving it a unique atmosphere, from its zigzag tiled floors to its 60’s mural decked bar. For a more underground feel, Stengade 30, in Nørrebro features the best of Danish and international rock and dance acts, usually with an all-night club to follow. Also in Nørrebro, Rust, a primarily live music/dance venue has an outdoor yard and bar. Its packed club nights have a relaxed free-style dance-floor policy. Pure dance clubs are also thick on the ground, Fever, Slide and Nasa, all in Baron Boltens Gård are worth a visit. However, as Nasa is a private club, it may be hard for visitors to get in - admission are preferably granted non-members who look like models or money. Right next to Tivoli in the old Jazzhouse Slukefter there's Club Mantra which play perhaps the best R&B and hip-hop in town. A luxurious interior, white leather sofas and a panoramic mural of Copenhagen at dusk, combined with the beats makes this THE place for cool Copenhageners. Over in Østerbro there's the more established Park Diskotek, the relaxed home of happy house. Copenhagen's gay scene is loosely based around Sebastian and the popular three storey Pan Disco, as the focal point for dancing. For jazz, Copenhagen Jazz House is the best option. With the renewed interest in new Danish jazz, this intimate showcase club features international and Danish acts, with a club night on weekends is popular with the younger Copenhagen jazz crowd.
