Enjoy a stroll down \u2018The Piss Trench\u2019<\/p>\n

Look away now if you have an aversion to foul language, but Copenhagen\u2019s Latin Quarter can be accessed via a gentrified street called The Piss Trench (Pisserenden). It snakes its way through this now trendy, colourful and quirky part of town that is known for its beautiful old-Danish-architecture buildings, cafes and independent shops<\/a>. The area was for many years the home of brothels, crime, and sleazy bars<\/a>, hence the affectionate nickname. The Living Room caf\u00e9 is a great spot for Danish rye bread sandwiches and one of the oldest and most cherished bakeries in town, Sankt\u00a0Peders Bageri<\/a>, is just around the corner, where cinnamon rolls are heavenly.<\/p>\n
