Denmark is the land of Vikings and Lego. Like Hungary, its geography is predominantly flat. The highest summit in Denmark is not a mountain but a man-made structure: the Great Belt Bridge. Denmark is progressive, politically and socially. The Danish film industry makes the most of its country’s liberal nature. Erotic films have been in circulation since the silent movies era and the Dogme95 movement, launched in the same year in protest of ostentatious Hollywood movies, has forever changed modern cinema.
The country’s capital is Copenhagen. The great view offered by Vor Frelsers Kirke is worth the 400 step climb. If a 360 degree view is more to your liking, the Round Tower will not disappoint. Those who prefer something more exciting should try Tivoli, a world class amusement park with one of the meanest roller coasters ever built. For a bit of culture visit the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek museum or catch a performance at the Opera, a structural marvel on its own. The city comes to life at night; party animals can dance the night away in Club Vega while the more even tempered one scan chill watching free film screenings held in open air at the city parks.
