How to spend top weekend in Copenhagen - ideas on extraordinary attractions and sites

There are interesting hidden places, creative monuments and architectural landmarks in Copenhagen, which are usually not shown to travelers during standard excursions. The best way to fix such an injustice is to explore the little-known places of interest in the city oneself. The best way to start is to visit the tower of Tuborg . This tower is nothing but a giant model of a Tuborg beer bottle, which is well-known to all fans of this internationally famous beverage. The unusual monument is not new and was installed yet in 1888. The height of the bottle is 26 meters. In the end of the 19th century, the tower was located in the center of the city, and nowadays it can be found in the Hellerup neighborhood. The unusual monument has its own secret – there is a wonderful observation deck on top of the tower, from which visitors can enjoy magnificent panoramic views of the city.

Copenhagen is one of Europe’s leaders in terms of diversity of modern architectural landmarks. If you want to see unusual modern houses, don’t forget to visit the House of Mirrors located in the central city park. The house was built in 2011 and is distinguished by the fact that its façade is almost completely covered with glass panels. Because of the fact, the house is nearly completely fused with the surrounding nature, so it will be not that simple to find it. Do you want to visit a truly unusual and interesting place? If so, it’s time to see Ørestad College – the most innovative and ultra-modern college in Europe. Travelers will be interested to see the futuristic architecture and creative design of inner premises. Behind the entrance doors of the college, they will find a beautiful atrium with a spiral staircase. An interesting fact – there are no typical auditoriums at the college. Instead, visitors will see big open space rooms with bright orange pillows that replace both tables and chairs.

Tietgen Student Hall, which is located in the neighborhood of Oranjestad, is a no less impressive architectural landmark. It is considered the best student dorm in the world. The building is made of wood and is distinguished by a unique design of the façade. The building is surrounded by a lush landscape garden. This wondrous place is great for making marvelous photographs in futurist style. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

Skateboard has become one of the modern symbols of Copenhagen – a small board with wheels is the favorite “vehicle” for many citizens. Everyone can become a part of this skating culture. For this purpose, simply head to the skating park located in building 80 on Enghavevej Street. The roofed park features modern equipment in accordance with international standards, so even professional sportsmen from all over the world enjoy performing there. This is the place, where you can see true masters of skateboarding and learn the art of this exciting sport yourself.

When you feel hungry, don’t hurry up to the nearest restaurant and head to the daytime market of Torvehallerne instead. Besides ordinary products, it is possible to purchase delicacies from all over the world at the market and afterwards enjoy your meals, sitting comfortably in the shade of trees in the nearest park. Delicious crunchy muffins, Parma ham, great choice of cheese and fragrant bread – this is a true paradise for gourmet travelers.

It’s not that simple to find a silent and not populous place in Copenhagen, especially in the heat of tourist season. However, there are places like that, and Royal Library Garden is one of such places. To find it, you need to walk on the street between the buildings of parliament and Det Kongelige Bibliotek, and you will find yourself in an amazingly beautiful and secluded park. You will find there a beautiful fountain, numerous sculptures and comfortable relaxation areas with benches.
