Discover Copenhagen’s historic center and relax by the canals
If you walk from Nørreport station along Frederiksborggade in only 15 minutes you’ll find yourself at one of the city’s most beautiful and historic areas, the Slotsholmen island. Well, it’s difficult to notice that you’re on an island, but if you look closer you’ll see you’re surrounded by the city’s canals and harbor. On this quarter stand, you’ll see some of Copenhagen’s most notable buildings, which are Christiansborg Palace, Thorvaldsen’s Museum, Børsen, the Royal Danish Library ,and Christian IV’s Stock Exchange. Even if you’re not in the mood for visiting one of those places, a walk along this area is definitely worth your time. If the sun shines, grab a beer and hang out like a local at the wooden platforms by the canals.
