For the fans: around 11:00-11:30 every morning, a military parade starts the track from Rosenborg Castle towards Amalienborg. More

Visit to this castle gives you some insight into King Christian IV and his life. The castle is easy to get to and we enjoyed its "doable" size. More

The castle is beautiful surrounded by the King's Garden. The rooms and treasury were great to visit. The castle is right in the city centre and is worth a visit on a sunny day. The scenery around is refreshing. More

Purchase a Copenhagen Card when in Denmark. This was a facinanting Castle/museum. You will see the crown jewels as well. There is an extra fee if you wish to photo them. More

This is a lovely place to visit during the summer months and sit outside and eat. It was beautiful! I didn't go inside the Castle but the outside is fantastic. Just enjoy it! More
