Copenhagen is a beautiful city, but what let it down was the general unfriendliness of the people, not everybody, but their seemed to be a reservedness and coldness that I didnt like, even Stockholm and Oslo had friendlier, more open people.

Me too! Born in Copenhagen in 1998, and I still live here :)

I visited Copenhagen back in 2014 and I fell in love with it. The food, the people, the culture, the scenery…it was all a great experience for me. It is better than what you see on Instagram, in my opinion.

Pictures don't do justice to the beauty of the city in person! I'd totally go for a trip again 🤩

​@@jackmeoff454The problem if you're a foreigner is getting a Dane to talk to you in more than just a superficial way. If you look at expat surveys of the most welcoming countries, Denmark ranks alongside Saudi Arabia!

If you're staying for at least 3 days and want to see as much as possible in a short time frame, I recommend the Copenhagen Card. It includes free entry to lots of tourist attractions, museums, including castle Rosenborg and Tivoli, and free public transportation in the greater Sjælland area. I went to Copenhagen early summer, and I spontaneously took a day trip to Elsinore and saw castle Kronborg and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, which was on the way. It was a blast! Hadn't have that much fun in years on a vacation. Beautiful city, good vibes, only second to my hometown Vienna!

As a Filipino I only know Denmark because of Michael Learns to Rock and Danish Butter Cookies. I never thought the capital as these awesome and beautiful my goodness.

Did you really make a video basically called “does Copenhagen look like the pictures you see of it?” ….just as an obvious excuse to get a company paid trip to Copenhagen? I wish I could convince my boss to give me a company paid trip to Copenhagen just to confirm that it looks like the pictures….best job ever!

I’m from Lebanon 🇱🇧 and i have absolutely no idea why i have fallen in love with Copenhagen and Denmark… i wish someday i’ll be able to visit it.

I lived in Copenhagen and can confidently say that I almost never spent any time in Nyhavn, if I was ever downtown I would be going to Christiania or near Tivoli. Or having a picnic in Assistenskirkegård.

KZread videos (most of them) is a relatively reliable source if you want to know how it looks like in real life, for those who cannot afford to visit.

Great to know - it does look beautiful.

4:25 One thing to note is that the 20 euro ticket to get into Tivoli doesn’t mean free rides. This requires an armband per person, which probably costs 3 times as much on top of the 20 euros. Or you can buy a number of tickets, maybe in sets of 20, if you don’t think you need the armband… The food, drink and candy inside Tivoli is also very expensive.

I like the description: "the old harbor Nyhavn", where Nyhavn literally means new harbour! Still, it is old by now, so it is not wrong. A bit like the English "New Forest" I guess - which was first named so in 1086. Neither people seem inclined to suddenly change names... 🙂

You may not be aware Dave, but every western country in the world utilize a certain amount of socialist principles. The American military is financed by taxes. What do you call that? Well, socialism. What defines whether a nation is socialist rule is the financial system. No nation, where the majority of the production sector is privately owned can be defined as having socialist rule. What Americans think is socialism is actually just whether a nation have chosen to include education and healthcare into being financed in the same manner as the military, through taxes. The difference between USA and Europe in that sense is like night and day. Europeans are being taught facts of history. In USA, people are mostly only being taught lies and things that make USA look great. Many Americans believe other western nations are socialist nations or have socialist culture. There must be something seriously wrong with the Americans system of education, because that belief is laughable when most Americans have no clue about what defines a socialist governance. Yes, Danes are reserved but that is the culture in Scandinavia. Scandinavians don't spend their energy being false and pretend. If they like you, you will know. If they don't like you, you will definitely know too.

@@hamza9540 ALL western nations follow socialist principles. All westerns nations finance parts of their systems via taxes but that does not make any of them socialistic. What defines whether a nation has socialist governance or not is how the financial system is structured. In a socialistic state, the entire production apparatus is controlled by the government. In no western nation is that the case. The difference is only how many services the various western nations have chosen to include in the government controlled segment. In USA, the healthcare and education systems are mostly privately financed while in Northern Europe, healthcare and education is financed via taxes. The principle is actually very simple. In the Northern European culture, there is a strong belief that any citizen shall have access to free healthcare no matter income, social status etc. It is also a strong belief that all citizens shall have access to free education no matter income, social status etc. The only thing that determines whether you will get direct access to free higher education is your grade levels. A natural genius can be found anywhere. To think special minds only spring out from wealth is ridiculous, hence the need for free education.

Copenhagen is a huge money pit where you can dump your money big way! Sorry for the not so aligned with the narrative opinion :( but I must say the institution's and social media lobby for tourism in Denmark, especially in Copenhagen is doing a great job.I never saw a bigger discrepancy between truth and fiction.I must say before I move here last year I thought Copenhagen is the best place on earth now I can wait to get out of here.Danish people are masters in hiding the dreck under the carpet,once a Greenlander told me,and he was right,never saw so many police sirens and drugs addicts in my life, behind those beautiful restaurants is hidden 12 hours if underpaid labor in awful conditions, working hygiene basically does not exist ,I never experienced such racism in my life,as an European,and I lived 12 years in Germany,for me a perfect tourism location is where you can visit nature beauties,and local culture, Denmark doesn't have any of this, everything here is borrowed, especially from the states,a good tourist location is where I don't have to dump 200,300 euros a day in order to have a unique experience!
