Some Unexpected “Hygge” Moments
On this trip to Norway🇳🇴, I had a last-minute layover in Copenhagen, Denmark🇩🇰 for two days, so I embarked on a two-day city walk. The hometown of Hans Christian Andersen, a place that has inspired so many fairy tales🫅! Copenhagen is a small city, and all the attractions are located in the city center, making it very easy to walk to most places. For those who love city walks, this is a pleasant surprise! Now, I’ll summarize some important things to keep in mind⚠️: ✅ Copenhagen is really small. Except for the Grundtvig’s Church, which is a bit farther away, you can walk to all the other attractions. So, it’s really not worth buying a City Pass ticket because it won’t pay off!😭 Many attractions are so close that you might not even want to take the bus. This time, I bought a 48-hour City Pass for 160 DKK. I only used it for the round trip to the airport✈️ and three other segments. Compared to my travel companions who bought single tickets, I felt like I lost money. So, if you’re willing to walk, it’s really not necessary to buy the pass! Of course, this doesn’t apply if you can’t walk at all. ✅ Grundtvig’s Church is closed on Sundays and Mondays, so if you plan to visit, make sure to plan your time accordingly! ✅ Don’t go to Nyhavn at noon. Although the colors are vibrant, the strong sunlight creates harsh contrasts, making it difficult to take good photos. I recommend going closer to sunset🌄 when the colors are still bright but the light is softer. ✅ The changing of the guard at Amalienborg Palace at 12 p.m. is a must-see! It’s very impressive. ✅ Copenhagen’s trains🚞 and buses🚌 are not very punctual and can be easily canceled. Although the city is small, if you have a tight schedule, make sure to allow extra time! I’m off to Norway🇳🇴 next!😃 #DenmarkTravelTips #CopenhagenTravelTips #CopenhagenDayTripAttractions #CopenhagenPublicTransport
