Amalienborg Palace

SES.dk/en
Four Rococo buildings from the mid 18th century, two of which are open to the public, create this complex directly across the water from the Opera House. "The Royal Family is a big thing in Denmark, so visiting is a must. There are also pretty gardens and special exhibitions dresses that the queen wore over the past 50 years. Take a walk from here down Bredgade Street to see some very chic (and very expensive) shops with Danish furniture and art. Perfect for window-shopping. Continue on to Nyhavn, the new harbor, which is alive day and night, especially its old bars in summertime."
