When you visit Copenhagen, don´t miss The Tivoli Gardens. It´s a wonderful mixture of an old-fashioned, romantic garden and a modern amusement park with rollercoasters and ferriswheel. At Christmas time you can also ice-skate at the lake, and the Garden is very beautiful with lights all over.

The country

Denmark is a democracy with a constitutional monarch. Denmark is known for having the smallest rate of corruption in the world, a very safe environment and one of the best social systems.

The Danes

Freedom of speech means a lot to the Danes, and therefore, they value debates in newspapers and other media. Everyone expects to live life their own way without too much interference. The Danes may appear reserved until you get to know them better.

Many speak English, and it is therefore easy to get by.
