Copenhagen is a city on a human scale. You experience that in the cobbled streets of the old city and in the green suburbs. Also the sea runs through the city and it's history. Copenhagen lies on several islands, and charming canals grace the city.
##THE CITY OF TOWERS
The center of the Old Town captures the feel of previous centuries. Towers, steeples and domes dating back from the 16 century has given Copenhagen one of it's nicknames. For we have escaped the construction of glitzy highrise or urban decay. You can get the feel of the city in a couple of hours, but you can easily spend weeks exploring the city an all it has to offer.
The danes are easygoing people. Danish is our language, but good english is spoken by most of the population. You'll only get lost if you really want to.
