Idyllic countryside.

Danish countryside.

Despite being fairly congested, Denmark still has a lot of idyllic countryside, mostly due to the fact that the country has a lot of small islands where life is still lived at a slower pace and if you have the time for it, then you should certainly make your way to the countryside to experience this part of Denmark aswell.

Well, we finally made it to your standing-we have a Legoland park now too. It is not as big, nor do we have all the nice monuments like your country features. Good pictures

Nice page! The Viking ship museum sounds really good, and may be fun out on the water in a ship!

I've never been to Denmark but would like to some day. I never even knew it had windmills like Holland and thatched houses like England! Good local customs tips too - seems the Danes also drink like the English ;-)

I had a glimpse at Denmark each time I drove to Norway and Sweden but I sure should have stayed longer! Next time! No "please", how strange!

Lovely, Denmark was the first country I visited when I was 8 :D and I have visited it so many times since then. We have pretty much the same "drinking customs" here in Iceland. Regína Hrönn
