Day 0: Arrival

Hotel Ansgar
Where we stayed! Great budget hotel and really central. I wanted something that would be within 10 mins waking from Central Station because I HATE lugging a suitcase around.

By the Round Tower, delicious spot for a classic Danish hot dog. At a lot of those on this trip.

BUKA
Yummy spot for breakfast and sweets. Went after we were in Nyhavn.

GANNI POSTMODERN
Worth checking out if you’re a Ganni fan. Didn’t find anything I desperately wanted. Christianshavn, the area it’s in is pretty - like a mini Amsterdam.
See More
Church of Our Saviour
Go after you're in GANNI. You’ve gotta climb all the way to the tippy top! Bit of a rush and the views are insane even if it's a bit misty out.

The troll you can see in Freetown Christiania 😍. You're fine taking pictures of it, though know you can't photograph most other places here.

See More
The Little Mermaid

Amalienborg Palace
Seems like it'll be the biggest but is actually very small and a quick visit. Focuses on the more modern monarchs.

Reallllly love the matcha here. Cozy lil spot for an afternoon pick-me-up.
See More
Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek
My favorite museum. Wish I could’ve brought a first date here. We went in the evening when they were open late.

Yummmm chicken sandwhich. Skip the fries and "meal deal" not actually a deal and the fries aren't as good as a second chicken sandwhich would be.
