What makes Copenhagen so special…!
A long 9 hours journey by flight
from India with atleast one stop over only makes your trip more splendid. The first thing you view before your plane
lands in Copenhagen International Airport are the windmills right in the
middle of the North Sea.
Then as your flight reaches the
peripheral of the airport, the next crystal clear and catchy sight is the
beautiful arranged homes in this happiest country in the world declared by
Dalai Lama.
As you flight settles down onto the
roads the quietly running cars who never honk is a matter of discussion, which
makes it the least noise polluted country. Here in this country you are
respected more when you are travelling on foot than in car. How do they respect
you? If you are to cross a road, any vehicles it may be whether Car or bicycle
they stop for you to cross over to the other side of the road and only then
they continue their move.
Moreover if you have time to go
around the city you can hire a tourist bicycle which you would find locked in
all corners of the city. You can use them by just inserting 10 - 20 Kroner
(which is the currency coin) into the slit near the handle which automatically
unlocks the bicycle. And these bicycles are for tourist purpose only and not
for your personal use.
From world - renowned art museums,
history museums, castles and palaces to parks, statues and adventures for
kids. Copenhagen has attractions and sights to suit every taste and interest –
