Since the opening back in august 2013 I have been visiting this super nice cinema integrated in the shopping center, Rødovre Centrum. Surprisingly lot of space both inside the cinema as well as outside in the lobby. No one have to struggle for the armrest, for they are all double and of course extra legroom and nice comfortable chairs too.

A beautiful church built in traditional style. Set on a hill trees trees are given space to grow that gives it all an idyllic look and breathing space in the suburban landscape. One of the landmarks that really shape gefühl of the city. If you are passing by Glostrup this almost 1000 year old church is definitely worth having a closer look at or a short detour.

This was the first castle we visited with the children and it was very cool. Even though the day was quite bleak, the visit was well worth the trip and as it was kind of an unplanned visit, once we arrived we were very impressed.
Highlights- the Great Hall, the artwork, the spectacular chapel and for me, the organ in the chapel (that consequently celebrated its 400th year in the chapel this year).
4. Nyhavn
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 22 reviews
Copenhagen's Nyhaven, or "New Harbor," is actually steeped in a long heritage. Colorful buildings line the canal and hint at a history of small-vessel traffic. Like many ports, this strip has a salty history, rich with sailors, drinking and Literary exploits. Danish author Hans Christian Andersen made his home in Nyhavn as well. It's cleaned up now and is a lovely place for a stroll.

The houses painted in their different colours were gorgeous. We took a biat trip and saw them from the water which does give you a wonderful view. What did surprise us was how small the street itself was. Most of the houses had some form of advertising on them and right in the middle there was an elaborate "gentleman's club" with photo's of women on the outside. They weren't rude photo's but seemed to help towards spoiling your impression of Nyhavn. Of all the places we visited on Copenhagen this proved to be our least favourite due to it being overcrowded & full of cafe's & restaurant's spoiling the view & atmosphere of the place. There was so much litter in the harbour too - no doubt from us tourists. Glad we saw it but wouldn't rush back.

We went to Tivoli on the 2nd day it was open for the spring season and it was decorated beautifully. Made for some fabulous pictures. We had a Copenhagen card but did not realize that you pay to enter and then you also pay for any rides and of course any food/drinks. Not unlike other “theme” parks. The weather was cold and grey so we did not feel like doing any rides, but we did enjoy walking around and seeing 2 of the shows offered. Quaint theme park with so much history. We went out of the park for dinner and then came back for coffee/dessert and to see the laser show. It was worth it. You shouldn’t miss Tivoli especially around the Easter season.
6. Vallensbaek Mose

Reviewed By springbank - Greve, Denmark
A really nice green space, a recreational area and a real oases ( despite the noise from the high way). Although man made, Vallensbæk Marsh is a beautiful as any of Mother Nature's creation. The two interconnected lakes, Tueholm og Vallensbæk Lake, make up most of the area. The lakes are artificial made as rainwater basin, stormwater, in 1971-72. The water depth is low, the maximum depth is 1.5 meters. The surrounding landscape offers lovely nature activities for both children and adults. There is a rich bird life and good opportunities for anglers.
There is a restaurant right next to Tueholm Lake called Spisestedet Mosen. Somewhere in the marsh, about 400 meters from the parking lot, a troll is hiding! A giant, called Lille Tilde, made of wood located on the small peninsula west of the restaurant. It is created by the artist Thomas Dambo. It is a so called recycled sculpture made of local wood waste and other recyclable materials.

Reviewed By nick e - Frederiksberg, Denmark
...and it is quite lovely. A well maintained and cared-for local beauty spot, very popular for picnics and general laying around when the weather is nice. The trees, shrubs and plants are usually labelled so that your curiosity as to their names can be satisfied. Plenty of ducks and a couple of healthy ponds, a stunning rose garden, plenty of seats and a quite nice cafe, run by students. Generally food isn't available before I think 11 am, but if you're hungry there might be wrapped sandwiches available, left over from yesterday. They serve nice coffee. A very popular park. Note that Dogs simply are not allowed, on a lead or otherwise - this makes it safe to just throw yourself down anywhere on the grass for a relax without having to check carefully for you-know-what beforehand. This is an excellent and very welcome rule. Also note that mobile BBQs, grills etc are similarly not allowed, although of course you can have a picnic (pre cooked) any time before the park shuts at night.

In Sondermarken you can go for your running in a nice green spot in the middle of the city. Run your intervals or more hill climbing or just lay on the grass and be inspired by the past looking at the beautiful Frederiksberg Castle. Finishing off with a visit to the very old Zoo just across the street. Amazing.

I visited mainly to see the polar bears in weather that was similar to their natural environment. Unfortunately, they were nowhere to be seen, so that was a big disappointment. There were also a lack of animals in other enclosures as well, such as the brown bears and the musk ox.
The zoo can be quite confusing to walk round, as there appears to be no natural route, and there is a lot of doubling back. Some enclosures were very good, others I felt were too small for the animals they contained.
