Copenhagen is the poster city for how urban life could work — bikes over cars, design in the everyday, and a food scene that punches far above the country's size.
Where to stay
Vesterbro for cool without being self-conscious, Nørrebro for the multicultural edge, and Indre By if you want everything within a 10-minute walk.
How to get there
Direct flights from most UK cities to Copenhagen (CPH) in under 2h. The Metro from the airport hits the centre in 15 minutes.
Don't miss
Lunch at Torvehallerne. A summer swim at La Banchina. Dinner at any of the Noma alumni spots — 108, Barr, or the ever-changing pop-ups on Refshaleøen.
Highlights
- Nyhavn harbour
- Tivoli Gardens
