What to do and see in Zealand, Zealand: The Best Monuments & Statues

November 13, 2021 Osvaldo Hartline

Denmark's largest island is so much more than simply the home of the country's dynamic capital, Copenhagen. Zealand also offers a delightful array of holiday homes and villas, pleasing harbors and sandy beaches, fringed by forests where castles lurk. Major destinations include the UNESCO-designated, Dutch Renaissance-style Kronborg Castle in Helsingor and the Viking attractions, cathedral and music festival of Roskilde. To the south bobs a flotilla of beautiful and relatively untouched islands.

I found this sculpture as I wandered the pier in Copenhagen harbour looking for the Little Mermaid statue. The statute, I later learned, is about The Key to the Future - I found this statue rather sad looking. It is out of the way, near garbage cans and no one was around it, the tourists flocked to the nearby Little Mermaid though. Is it despairing for our future!!!!! Is there a key!!!! I thought a lot more about this statue than I did the Little Mermaid statue!!!!

Frederiksborg slotshave

Reviewed By Funtraveler2014 - Las Cruces, United States

If you decide to visit Frederik's castle, take the time to unwind in the gardens. The main garden is located on the back side of the castle and is done in the french style similar to Versailles. It is the result of meticulous attention over the past few centuries. There is also a hidden gem of a garden to the back left of the castle. It is quaint with a few benches, trees, ducks, and lots of lush greenery. It is a great place for a picnic if you don't have food at the two cafes on the castle grounds. Overall, a very relaxing spot. I can recommend this stop and I will return again.

Reviewed By SaraM604 - North Vancouver, Canada

YOU MUST DO THIS!!! I can't stress enough how cool these Forgotten Giants (by Thomas Dambo) are. We found Oscar on google maps and were able to park closer than the Arken Museum in a neighbourhood near a beautiful park. Oscar was the first giant we found and he made us so excited to find more! Beautiful stroll (easy for all abilities) to find him under his bridge.

A place gives a nice walk in the area, looking for the sculpture. There is also a lovely lake with picnic facilities around.

The 1 hour boat trip from Nyhven around the canals of the city, take in all the main sights and is great and inexpensive way of getting ones bearings of the city. The tour is part audio tour and part chats by a tour guide and both were very informative.The cost was 95 DK which I thought was reasonable in this expensive city.

Reviewed By traveling_smiles - Longmont, United States

The eyes of Teddy Friendly are so sweet and he kindly helps you walk across the little stream on his arm. I loved his little feet sticking out of his squat body and like most of the giants he has a gorgeous location. I absolutely recommend seeking out all the giants, they were each fantastic in their own way!

Thomas paa Bjerget

Reviewed By SaraM604 - North Vancouver, Canada

When we got to Thomas the winds really picked up along with a wild rain storm that blew in quickly. We were about to turn around but decided to walk for a few more minutes. I am so glad we did. LOVE all the Forgotten Giants! Worth spending the time to find them all! (Thomas was within walking distance of Little Tilde)
