Walk the Nyhavn Waterfront in Copenhagen Denmark

“When we arrived at Nyhavn, we stopped almost dead in our tracks. It had all the historic charm we had encountered along Strøget, but with splashes of color that felt less like Scandinavia and more like a port in the Caribbean. Okay, that’s a stretch, but it more whimsy and less of a proper European stuffiness. Plus, the facades really popped under the bright blue sky. We were immediately smitten with the area.”

“Once we were done with our boat tour of Copenhagen’s canals, we returned to Nyhavn and spent a good hour-plus just perusing the pedestrian area, taking photos and admiring the townhouses, their quirky signs, and intimate charm.”
