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. Moreover, Copenhagen is also known as the Little Paris of the North, filled with fashionable elements in its ancient buildings. ⛱️ Must-visit Attractions: The Little Mermaid Statue 🗿 This bronze sculpture, based on Andersen's fairy tale 'The Little Mermaid', is a symbol of Copenhagen and Denmark. 🚌 Transportation: Take bus No. 12 and get off at 0sterport station, then walk.

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.
