Copenhagen
The destination for our first visit to Scandinavia was Denmark. The glorious August weather and long daylight hours offered delightful opportunity for exploring Copenhagen and beyond. We visited Kronborg Castle in Helsingør, took a short ferry ride over to Sweden, explored viking ships and famous cathedral at Roskilde and and visited impressive Fredericksborg Castle in Hillerød. We enjoyed visiting castles and palaces in Copenhagen in addition to picturesque canals and parks, iconic Nyhavn and Tivoli Gardens - second-oldest amusement park in the world (going back to 1843).
