In this kingdom full of fairy tales ☀️, the charm of Copenhagen is also worth looking forward to. The capital of the fairy tale kingdom Denmark. Compared to other Nordic countries, although Denmark has the smallest territory, as a former empire that ruled the Nordic region, Danish characteristics deeply influence the Nordic style.

Most shops are closed on Sundays, so don't waste your trip. Nordic people are really happy, with shops open for an average of 30 hours a week.
