Copenhagen is also known for its annual Pride celebration in August. In fact, Denmark itself was the first country in the world to legalize same-sex unions back in 1989 and has since legalized same-sex marriage in 2012. The city is also especially gay-friendly with a small, but noteworthy collection of gay bars clustered around Rodhuspladsen, the city hall square in the center. With just a few days in Copenhagen, you can visit many of the most popular sites. Famous for its Michelin-starred restaurants, buildings with colorful facades along the Nyhavn waterfront, bike culture that rivals that of Amsterdam, bold and unique architecture, historic landmarks and monuments and Tivoli, the second oldest amusement park in the world, there’s something here for every kind of traveler.
Copenhagen is an urban city with a population of just over a million inhabitants.
