Rich with historical sites, and defined with an infinite impression of calm places, truly hospitable and happy crowd, and significant landmarks, it should be your next to-do-thing.
There is a surge in visitors from the United Kingdom, especially London to Copenhagen. It has become one of the best getaways for the Britons. The City of Spires is an ideal place for brief and cheap vacation. But every traveling destination requires some planning in advance, which is economical and time-saving.
We recommend you to hire professional help from a renowned travel agency to book your accommodation and travel tickets. We have developed a 5-day itinerary to Copenhagen from London. We hope it will be of some help to you to discover what this magnificent city has to surprise you.
Day 1: Little Mermaid Statue
You can board a flight to Copenhagen from Gatwick International Airport or any other airport in the UK, as there is no shortage of flights to Denmark. But try to fly late at night, as then the short flight will leave no such jetlag on you. Once you land, you can check in your hotel and take a nap.
Head out in the morning and begin with the Little Mermaid Statue, which was created by Edvard Eriksen in 1913. This fairytale statue is a big tourist attraction in Copenhagen, so a few snaps are in order. Follow it up with Botanical Gardens, and enjoy a walk in the peaceful gardens. Release all the stress you had from your work life back in the busiest city in the world and absorb some sunrays.
You can then visit Geological Museum, which is a part of Copenhagen Botanical Gardens. The best thing about this city is that everything is near. Just adjacent to the Gardens is a Zoological museum. Visit it and conclude your day with dinner with Stegt Flaesk and Stamppot and sleep.
Day 2: Nyhavn and Christiansborg
Day 2 will begin with a long-awaited visit to Nyhavn Watergate. This 17th-century canal waterfront is now a tourist spot. You can spend some time here and be mesmerized by the utter beauty of this place. The next thing on the list will be Christiansborg Palace basement, which is almost a millennia old.
The next destination will be National Aquarium of Copenhagen, which is the biggest aquarium in Europe. You can then visit Oresund Bridge, which connects Sweden with Denmark over the Oresund Strait. Enjoy the sunset on this location and head back to Copenhagen to enjoy some nightlife.
