Art, culture, culinary delights, joy! Denmark’s capital has been named "the world’s most livable city" several times. Situated directly on the Øresund, sea-fed canals crisscross the city center and provide a maritime flair. Even in winter, when Christmas markets take over the public squares, Copenhagen is worth experiencing and places like the colorful 17th-century Nyhavn are a magnet for locals and tourists alike. You too can discover the city’s endearing charm and get to know the cozy Danish lifestyle of "hygge".
The extraordinary Royal Opera House on the Holmen Peninsula is today one of Copenhagen’s architectural landmarks. The home of the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra is the DR Konzerthuset, another impressive example of reduced contemporary architecture, which enchants its listeners with wonderful acoustics and transforms into a blue-lit cube at night.
