We had the BEST surprise in Copenhagen! Why you NEED to visit Denmark in winter 🇩🇰❄️🔥

Copenhagen in Denmark is a stunning, vibrant, colourful capital city brimming with history.
Most people will tell you to visit in the summertime, and while that’s always a great plan, we wanted to show that you can still enjoy this beautiful place in the winter.

12:39 Freetown Christiania
13:14 Tivoli Gardens
15:09 The best fireworks display we've ever seen
The city’s oldest street of Magstraede had an incredible aura and the iconic Nyhavn was breathtaking. We absolutely loved it.
We also checked out landmark buildings including Christiansborg Palace, Holmens Kirke and Børsen on our walk around, as well as paying a quick visit to the bizarre but fascinating Freetown Christiania.
Tivoli Gardens treated us to the most magical surprise of all, though, and it’s lit up in a unique way that you can only experience at Christmas time. Tivoli alone is worth a visit in the colder months to be honest - but there is so much to see and do in Copenhagen.
Thank you for watching our short film. We hope you enjoy it!

I am British but was raised in Copenhagen so I know this city by heart. For a long time a very underrated city that finally in the last couple of decades has risen to a kind of mini stardom among citys, and well deserved.

[@BenandMarnie]

That’s cool! Underrated is a great word to describe Copenhagen! We agree that it certainly deserves every bit of praise it gets. A great place ☺️

There was an even bigger fireworks in Tivoli on January 14th for the coronation of King Frederik 10., the biggest one they ever had.

[@BenandMarnie]

Wow that’s cool, that must’ve been some display. We’ve never seen anything like the one we saw that goes on for so long!

[@TheChiefEng]

While Copenhagen actually does have a few very old buildings, most of the buildings in the medieval part of the city are from 1728 and onwards. A large part of the medieval part of Copenhagen burned down in 1728 and yet another part burned down in 1795 and then in 1807, the British bombed Copenhagen with their navy which again caused parts of the city to burn down. It may be a little difficult to envision today but Copenhagen was actually a fortified city up to the mid 1850s with only 4 access points and a moat and bastions surrounding the city. The lake in Tivoli Garden is actually a remnant of the moat that once surrounded Copenhagen.

[@BenandMarnie]

Wow that’s absolutely fascinating - and also quite sad that so much of its beautiful history has been effectively wiped away. Thank you for sharing, we didn’t know all of that! Really interesting stuff. It’s still a beautiful city the way it is today. We loved it ☺️

@@BenandMarnie The first bombardment of a civilian town! Nelson putting the glass to his blind eye!

[@TheChiefEng]

@@BenandMarnie A little funny thing is that the houses that were built after the 1728 fires all have flattened corners so as to ease the access of horse drawn fire fighter carriages. This is a detail not really known to most people and only few people actually wonder about why none of the buildings built after the 1728 fires have sharp 90 degree corners. You will be able to see this in your video. The current Christiansborg Castle is the 3rd edition of the castle and was first completed in the late 1920s after the previous castle burned down in 1884. Rosenborg Castle was virtually built as a summer residence for King Christian IV. During that time the location of the castle was straight next to the bastions facing the moat. The lake in Botanic Gardens is also a remnant of the moat that once surrounded the city.

[@luffegasen7711]

Nelson wasn't around in 1807 ... He died two years before at the Battle of Trafalgar, shot by a French sharpshooter. You are thinking of Slaget på Reden (Battle of Copenhagen) on April 2'nd in 1801. Here Nelson was ordered to stop the battle and that's when he put the telescope to the blind eye and said he couldn't see the order. "You know, Foley, I only have one eye - I have the right to be blind sometimes. I really do not see the signal!"

The British used Lord Congreves newly invented and dastardly rockets for the first Terror Bombardment of a town!!

Early on you casually pass the Thorvaldsen Museum with no mention. In several of the most famous 19th century British novels he is mentioned, as meeting and being acknowledged by Thorvaldsen was considered a cultural highlight for travellers to Rome. And having Thorvaldsen portraying you in marvel was greater than Grammies and Oscars combined. Byron received that honour. Hans Christian Andersen, much younger than Thorvaldsen but with a real personal friendship, wrote about it. Thorvaldsen told Andersen, that Byron thought that the potrait was not melancholy/tragic enough. The two of them seem to have had a little giggle about that.

[@BenandMarnie]

That’s fascinating! Wow, Copenhagen has so much history, it’s crazy. Sorry we passed it by without even realising. So hard to take it all in when there’s so much to see 😆 just shows what a great place it is really 😃

[@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188]

I don't know if you noticed the half timbering in the one side of a house in Magstræde. This Center is part of the original Copenhagen, inside the former fortress wall which still exist as names. But several large fires have ruined the original Center so only few buildings are left from older days. Most, as also the present Amalienborg Castle, is part of the new plan for the town, for a fast rebuilt, so 4 Noble Families built their homes in the Center. But the King bought them, after a fire in his Palace and has lived there since.
