An enchanting town

by barrikello - last update: Jan 28, 2004

Ribe from the Borgertarnet
Yes, Ribe is a must for visitors travelling through the Jutland Peninsula. Despite being a popular destination - and thus full of tourists - it can't be missed on one's way through Denmark. It's a place full of art and history, a town where the time seems to have stopped. It recalled me York, with its brick facaded buildings and the stunning architecture of the ensemble. The size is indeed smaller - about one tenth - but the importance in the respective kingdoms' histories and the number of masterpieces are similar. Being the town surrounded by marsken - marshes - its highlights can be seen from very far away. Storks come to Ribe in spring and they really know their business.

 Wow you can take a simple little place and turn it into a Must See place for the rest of us. Particularly like the view from above.
