Let us introduce you to the charms of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale city by starting in front of the amazing Tivoli Gardens a 19th-century amusement park home to one of the world’s oldest wooden roller coasters. We will see them from outside, then heading to the Latin Quarter, with its Round Tower, one of the most popular structures in Denmark. Our next point of interest is the City Hall Square, a significant site historical heritage, where you can admire the façade of the turn-of- the-century City Hall. Now it's time to stroll down the main shopping promenade of Ströget, a posh and bohemian place in the same time. Prepare yourself for beauty and adventure because it's time to visit Slotsholmen Island with classical facades of Christiansborg Palace, the seat of the Danish government. The original structure, built in the 12th century, provides over 800 years of Royal History. Is your energy level as high as your curiosity level? Perfect, we will continue to one of the most idyllic spots in Copenhagen to admire the colored houses and historic wooden ships anchored in the harbor of Nyhavn (New Harbor). Be prepared to hear tales of former resident, Hans Christian Andersen. It's time to change the scenery and continue to Amalienborg, a regal courtyard framed by the palaces of the Danish Royals, the official residents of the Danish Queen. In this area we will pass by the dome of Frederik's Church, popularly known as The Marble Church for its rococo architecture. Also, you can take some pictures of Gefion Fountain, the largest fountain in Copenhagen. After this royal treat, back to the fairyland! Prepare your cameras because you will meet the city's symbol -the most famous fairytale character, The Little Mermaid, displayed on a rock by the waterside.
