Thank you for a very nice guided tour. As a Dane, one quickly discovers that you have done your homework, you have a great aesthetic sense and highlight many fine things throughout the tour. A suitable mix of exciting things, beauty and a touch of real and factual history. You're very pleasant to listen to and it's reassuring that it's not all about flashing yourself. Thank you.
A truly excellent video of one of my favorite European cities. Your presentation, narration, timing and you choice of things to highlight was spot on. Excellent job. Thank you
What a great recap video! Thanks for sharing! (So delighted to see the view from to top of the church. WE didn’t have time to go up on our visit! Nice work!
Love the video! I live in Copenhagen and really enjoyed your video! Excellent production aswell. Subscribed. By the way the last tower you are in Christianshavn I am scared to climb because the railing is so low i feel and it can be windy. You are braver than me, haha. Interesting fact about the tower, the man who did the archictecture wanted the stairway to go left, but by mistake made it go right and because of this he jumped from the tower and died :(
oh wow - what a tragic turn of events. i didn't realize the railings were that low until i was there, so there was no turning back :) also, i read that the tower was hit by lightning a few times before, i was afraid that that might happen while i was there :)
Inside the Town Hall we also have the most precise mechanical clock in the World, in a side room! "The Olsen Clock" (Guinness), also showing a lot of informations, amongst those the rotation-centre of the Earth! The slowest moving "mechanical object" in the world (Guinness), making a turn every 25.000 years (The clock is showing 1500 years of movement!). It was finished and started in the early 1950. and it looks its time of course.
@@richardsolotravels Because a Swedish guest (!) realized something was wrong, it became disassembled for a long time and restored by a very skilled Danish watchmaker, with more modern items, than at the time it became planned and built, and a Service Schedule, which it hadn't before (the Inventor, a very gifted and named, "Fine Mechanic", Jens Olsen only took part in the built of the special and very advanced Calendar-Mechanism, also accepting timed irregularities, before his death, in I think 1945!). So it became finished by the group of people also involved in the built, before being unveiled in 1950, I think? My father, who was also a skilled watchmaker, managed to see it before his all too early death in 1954. I was only 6½ then! Finn
A small correction to your information about Christiansborg Palace. The royal family has never actually lived in this exact version of the palace. Christiansborg palace in its current version was finally finished in the 1920s after the previous palace burned down in 1884. At the time the last version of the palace burned down in 1884, the royal family moved to Amalienborg palace where they still reside today. The ruins under the current palace are mostly the foundations from the first buildings built by Bishop Absalon who founded Copenhagen. These ruins were mainly dug out during the building of the current palace. On a more historic note, the lake in Tivoli and the lake in Botanic Garden are actually remnants of the moat that surrounded Copenhagen up to the 1850s. Tivoli, built in 1843, was technically outside the Copenhagen fortifications up to around 1857. Every building in Tivoli up to that time was constructed in wood by law since all buildings around Copenhagen up to a certain distance should be able to be burned down quickly in case Copenhagen was attacked. A small curious thing in Amalienborg palace is if you look behind the guards at the location where the change of guards takes place, you will see some metal structures in rows behind the guards. These are actually supports from the time when the guards used old fashioned front loading riffles. They stand were made as rests for the riffles. If you are a history nerd, you will enjoy Copenhagen but considering Copenhagen basically burned down at least twice (1728 & 1794), only few buildings are older than 1728. However, Denmark has plenty other towns and cities that are older than Copenhagen where many old building are preserved.

oh yes, I remember that room. spent some time exploring it before the group tour started and we went up the tower. thanks for the info!

Greetings from Denmark.
Wonderful video. How did you film this? I guess with a drone?
i think you are referring to the 360 degree clips? i used insta360 onex2 for those. for the rest of the clips, i just used my samsung s21 phone.
You did not mention one of the important places Louisiana Museum
Hi dear❤ am from India
Wow ! Nice video. What camera are you using ?
thank you! i used dji pocket 2 for most of the clips.
Great video. How does the selfie stick remove the stick from the video? 😁
thank you! it's a 360 camera, model number is insta360 onex2
If the danish flag (Dannebrog) is waving at the top of Amalienborg, our queen will be there.
that's so cool!
Any Filipino food?
i saw a filipino restaurant! but it was closed. sayang.
You want to go to Denmark to have Filipino food?
@@LarsPallesen Why not. Maybe not philipine food, but one the only thai restaurant in the world that have a Michelin Star is Kiin Kiin in Copenhagen.
Of course & why not!, I was in Dänemark last few weeks ago, I’m also looking Philippine Restaurant, MABUHAY❤️❤️❤️
You go up an awful lot of spiral staircases
yes i did 😂
