Gardens With Rare Plants |
Gothersgade, Nørrevoldgade, Sølvgade, Øster Farimagsgade Copenhagen 1307 Denmark +45 35 32 22 40 http://www.botanic-garden.ku.dk |
Founded in 1874, the Botanical Gardens are located between Gothersgade and Sølvgade. They form a peaceful spot with exciting nature right in the center of Copenhagen. Here the visitor can enjoy the sights of the rare trees, rock gardens, medicinal plants and wild Danish plants from moor and heath. The Palm House is a must with its palm trees, cacti and orchids. The Gardens also contain the Botanical Museum and an observatory. Dogs are not allowed in the gardens. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Party In The Park |
Nørre Voldgade Copenhagen Denmark |
H.C. Ørstedsparken was originally part of the moats of Copenhagen. The park was built in 1876-79 in an English style with wonderful lawns and paths. It also has playgrounds and a café, and in the summer the park is full of people sunbathing. Some would not recommend visiting the park in the evenings. It is named after the famous Danish physicist H.C. Ørsted. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The Official Museum of Pictorial Arts |
Sølvgade 48-50 Copenhagen 1307 Denmark +45 33 74 8494 http://www.smk.dk/ |
This grandiose building was erected in 1889-96 after plans drawn by Wilhelm Dahlerup and G.E.W. Møller, in Italian Renaissance style. In autumn 1998, an extension was opened that gave the State's Art Museum the facelift it needed. The architects were Anna Maria Indrio and Mads Møller. This deeply original new building was constructed in the park behind the original building and is connected to it by a glass-covered walkway, 'the street of sculptures'. The 'street' stretches along the full length of the museum, and within it concerts and dance performances are held. The museum contains collections of art dating from the twelfth century. In the older European and Danish collections feast your eyes on paintings by Titian, Tintoretto, Breugel, Rubens, Frans Hals and Rembrandt can be . The modern collection comprises work by Picasso, Braque, Leger, Modigliani and Emil Nolde. Also Danish painters are richly represented, and you can enjoy the styles of Oluf Høst, Edward Weihe, Olaf Rude and Harald Giersing.Statens Museum for Kunst also contains a special museum for children and the Royal Danish Copperplate Collection.

Old Royal Castle |
Østervoldgade 4 A Copenhagen 1350 Denmark +45 3315 3286 http://www.rosenborgslot.dk/ |
Rosenborg Castle was built by Christian IV (1606-34) in Renaissance style. The castle has an almost fairytale-like location in Kongens Have. Rosenborg was originally a country mansion outside the walls of the city. The castle with its copper roof is surrounded by moats, and just outside the castle you'll find a very beautiful rose garden. The most characteristic things about Rosenborg are its many richly decorated rooms. Ever since the absolutist monarchy, Rosenborg has also been the home of the royal crown jewels. Rosenborg also functions as a museum on the Royal Family. For security reasons, electricity has never been installed. Admission fees: DKK65 for adults, DKK40 for students and pensioners, and DKK20 for children. Rosenborg is closed on Mondays, and from 17 to 27 December. Review © 2007, Wcities |
