However, Denmark has many places which you can spend quality time with family and friends, sitting back and relax. You could bike around the town or in the parks, taking train rides to other cities or towns, chilling out at La Glace (a popular confectionery/pastry cafe along the Strøget), reading a book by the waters in a park, snapping pictures or inviting friends over for a movie night/dinner. Yes, they do sound simple and "boring" but I find they are the best ways to fill up your time in a peaceful place like Denmark.
Should you intend to take train rides, do not miss Roskilde. Take a regional train and you should be there in an hour or so. It is a quaint town, no smaller than Copenhagen, offering many cultural and artistic sites for nature and art lovers. Even if you are not into art or culture, it is a pleasant place to walk around and spend your day lazily.
Though I am not a museum person, I must say that I did enjoy the Viking museum in Roskilde and I would certainly recommend it.
I shall let the pictures speak for itself.
Pardon me for my lack of sense for posing :p You will not miss these 3 vases because you could see them right after you exit the Roskilde train station. |
The Roskilde Cathedral |
After visiting the Roskilde Cathedral and walking along the rows of houses by the waters, take a bus to the Viking museum Vikingeskibsmuseet (Sorry, I can't remember what is the bus number -.-). It is an open air museum.
Caution: Do not be a hero and jump into the waters without looking what is in it. That amount of jellyfish could certainly kill..... |
