【Denmark】A Beautiful Church with an Adjacent Tower

I visited the 'Trinity Church' in Copenhagen, Denmark! This church, which is connected to the round-domed astronomical observatory known as the "Round Tower," is not just a place of worship. It was once a hub for learning and prayer, housing a university library and an astronomical observatory. Much of the interior was rebuilt after a major fire in 1728, and in 1731, new Baroque-style ceilings, decorations, and floor tiles were added. Above the chapel lies the university library, and its vast size contributed to the expansive design of the church itself. While inside, I had the chance to listen to a concert rehearsal. The vocal power and beauty were mesmerizing, and I couldn't stop listening. Although recording and video were prohibited, photography was allowed, so I took some pictures!

Copenhagen calling! 🇩🇰✨ If you're looking for a city break with fairy-tale vibes, indulgent desserts, and culture at every turn, these 4 days will have you hooked. My nighttime visit to Tivoli Gardens—lit up with pumpkin lanterns and buzzing with festival energy—was a highlight you seriously shouldn't miss. Must-See Places in Copenhagen: 1. Tivoli Gardens (Vesterbrogade 3, 1630 København V; usually open 11am–11pm): Visit after sunset to see the iconic pumpkin lantern display and join the lively crowd. Pro tip: grab a hot chocolate and dessert inside; perfect for chilly, rainy evenings. 🎃🍰 2. Nyhavn (København K, 1051): Wander the colorful canal, snap pics of the historic buildings, and grab a Danish pastry at a local café. Rain or shine, the architecture pops for great photo-ops! 3. Rosenborg Castle (Øster Voldgade 4A, 1350 København K; open 10am–4pm): Get lost in royal history and lush gardens. Western-style architecture here is a treat for culture lovers. 4. The Round Tower (Købmagergade 52A, 1150 København K; open 10am–8pm): Climb up for panoramic city views—especially atmospheric on cloudy days. Getting Around: Copenhagen’s metro and buses are super easy to use—download the DOT app for tickets and route planning. Cycling is huge here; rentals are cheap and there are bike lanes everywhere (just bring an umbrella if rain is forecast). Where to Eat: Try traditional smørrebrød at Restaurant Schønnemann (Hauser Plads 16). For desserts, Andersen Bakery has both Danish classics and international treats. Destination Tips: Weather flips between sunny and rainy, so layer up and pack waterproofs. Credit cards are accepted almost everywhere. No visa required for most Western nationals for short stays. #CopenhagenVibes #ScandiStyle #TivoliNights #TravelTips #tripdotcom
