Eriksholm Summer Camp, 18-22 August 2010

Copenhagen
Wonderful
Copenhagen is definitely worth a visit, even if it’s just a short one! Friday afternoon and evening, we will take in
the sights and have dinner at the festive Tivoli Gardens.
Our visit to Copenhagen starts with a Canal Tour,
which is a great way to see a lot in a short time. Many
of the most impressive sights and attractions in
Copenhagen are best seen from the water. The tour
takes approximately one hour and the Royal Palace
of Amalienborg, the new Opera House and the Parliament
are just some of the attractions the guided
boat passes as it gently cruises the waterways.
Back on land, you will have a few hours to experience
the atmosphere of Copenhagen on foot before
meeting at Tivoli for Dinner. Whether you want to
visit Nyhavn (New Harbour), visit the stores along
Strøget – the main pedestrian street - or mooch
around the Latin Quarter, with its many ancient
buildings and quaint, second-hand clothes shops,
we leave that up to you!
Tivoli Gardens is Copenhagen’s highly popular
amusement park and usually on the top-ten list
of every visitor. Founded in 1843 it is a dazzlingly
beautiful park with an astonishing 400,000 flowers
and trees lit by 110,000 lamps. It has its own unique
atmosphere and a wealth of high-quality restaurants,
stages for music and theatres as well as thrilling
rides. If you dare, try The Demon – a three-loop
roller coaster – or The Golden Tour with the fabulous
view and very fast drop!
