1: Art Stars at Louisiana
Without doubt the world's most beautifully situated art museum, Louisiana is an easy excursion from Copenhagen, and one you won't soon forget.

Try a guided tour with Cycling Copenhagen, founded by bike enthusiast Christian Hougaard.

5: Drink at Oscar Bar Cafe
6: Stroll the Tivoli Gardens
There's a reason that Copenhagen's Tivoli Gardens, first opened in 1843, is one of the most visited parks in Europe. Crowded with first-rate restaurants, theaters, and dance halls, it's a natural place to find yourself during a summer evening when you're likely to catch live jazz, classical, or pop music (Azealia Banks will be playing there in September).
