Danish State Railways (Danske Statsbaner – DSB)

Denmark is a developed Scandinavian country situated on the Jutland Peninsula and more than four hundred nearby islands. While its land border with Germany measures less than seventy kilometres, the total length of Denmark’s coast is roughly seven thousand kilometres. The country’s highest point is at an elevation of 171 metres above sea level, which is a mere 56 metres higher than the lowest point in the Czech Republic.

Copenhagen

The capital has approximately half a million inhabitants and is situated on the island of Sjalland. It offers tourists an interesting intersection of history and the modern era. Here you can visit the idyllic Nyhavn waterfront or Amalienborg Palace, or you can have your picture taken at a nearby fortress with the famous statue of the Little Mermaid. You can easily return to the present, however, with a visit to the futuristic-looking building of the Copenhagen Opera, for example.

Kronborg Castle

North of Copenhagen in the town of Helsingor is Kronborg Castle, where the Shakespearean drama Hamlet is set. You can get to this monument, called Elsinor in Shakespeare’s epic, aboard a suburban train comfortably. Those not seeking an answer to the question of “to be or not to be” can at least visit the Danish Technical Museum instead of Hamlet’s stomping grounds.

Legoland

If you travel to Denmark with children, you can also visit Legoland, located in the town of Billund roughly in the middle of the Jutland Peninsula. The park is situated near the original Lego factory and was opened in 1968. In addition to a miniature world made from little blocks, it also offers a roller coaster and other attractions.
