Copenhagen and the Øresund Region
The capital of Denmark boasts a big city pulse as well as beautiful nature. In Copenhagen, you can explore a world of fashion, design, culture and gastronomic experiences. The sights are all within easy reach and this opens up for a wealth of possible day trip combinations or even trips further away. When visiting Copenhagen, it is obvious to combine the visit with a trip to Skåne in Sweden. Skåne also offers many exciting gastronomic experiences.
Restaurants
The Øresund Region is full of charm, atmosphere and culinary experiences of all sorts. Here, you find food of Danish as well as international origin and to all budgets. Visit one of the many cafes, maybe a fusion cafe, where young artists, designers and cafe owners team up to offer food and exhibitions of among other things artworks, clothes and furniture design in one place. Or how about visiting one of Copenhagen’s 8 Michelin-starred restaurants?
