One of Denmark’s most recognisable sites is Nyhavn, which used to be one of the hubs for ship merchants. With colourful buildings, it is the perfect place to stop for a selfie and visitors will find plenty of outdoor dining venues to explore. At Christmas time, the area welcomes a market that are sure to get visitors into the festive spirit.
For visitors who fancy some shopping, Strøget is the central pedestrian street at the centre of Copenhagen’s major shopping area, with a mix of budget and exclusive brands. Its side streets are packed with restaurants, cafes and other shops.
Visitors can take in the sights by booking a canal tour, which can be found at Nyhavn or near Christiansborg and will take you past the Opera House, The Black Diamond library and The Little Mermaid sitting on its rock.

The Ryanair website reads: “Denmark’s capital is as vibrant as they come. If you want a city break filled with culture, Scandi-chic and bucketfuls of Carlsberg, book cheap flights to Copenhagen, and you won’t be disappointed.
“When booking your Copenhagen flights you’ll want to know the best time of year to visit the Danish capital.
“Spring usually brings bright sunlight and cloudless skies, but if you’re looking for longer evenings and warmer weather the best time to visit the Danish capital is during the summer months of June, July and August. Autumn can also be a good time to travel to Copenhagen – the city’s green spaces, in particular, the Tivoli Gardens are picture perfect.”
