Copenhagen has been fascinating travellers from around the world since it was founded in 1167. Many of the city’s most impressive buildings date from the golden age of the 17th Century when the extensive canal network was founded.

Copenhagen has been the Danish capital since the early 15th century. The city centre contains many historical and culturally important buildings, most of which are concentrated in a relatively small area, thereby making sightseeing easy on foot. Water plays an important role on the Copenhagen tourist trail. The famous Little Mermaid statue (more of which later) is a potent symbol of the city and the picturesque Nyhavn canal is now a bustling area full of trendy cafés, shops and hotels.

Today you will discover excellent museums, top class restaurants, a sophisticated nightlife (with great jazz bars), gabled houses, narrow streets, colourful markets, ancient harbours and the wonderful Tivoli Gardens - all the ingredients for a great weekend break. Whenever you go, you can be sure of experiencing some wonderful Copenhagen hospitality.
