Step by step

It's definitely recommended to bike this tour, as it is quite long. Pick out a few places you'd like to stop and simply just enjoy other stops while riding past.
John’s Hotdog Deli
@sashascherg
If you're already hungry, then don't miss out on John's Hotdog Deli. These hotdog stands are all over the city, but the quality varies a bit, and this is simply the best one! Located outside of the Central Station, it's an easy place to find and enjoy in front of Tivoli and the station, which are both landmarks too.

Det Kgl. Bibliotek, The Royal Library

The Black Diamond/Royal Libraries is a striking architectural marvel, featuring sleek lines and a modern design that contrasts with its historic surroundings. Its glass facade reflects the water, creating a captivating visual spectacle.

Christiansborg Palace
@sashascherg
Built in the 18th century, Christiansborg Palace boasts a blend of baroque and renaissance styles, serving as the seat of Danish parlament. It's free to walk to the top of the tower. Here you'll also find a small café to have a coffee or another refreshment.

Børsen
@sashascherg
Børsen showcases Dutch Renaissance architecture with its distinctive spire and ornate facade. Built in the 17th century, it served as a stock exchange and remains an iconic landmark today. Notice the animal on the tower? The danish king ordered a crocodile, but since neither the king nor the architect had seen one in real life, it now looks like this. Which creature do you see?

Church of Our Saviour
@sashascherg
Built in the Baroque style in the 17th century, Our Savior's Church intricate design showcases Danish architectural prowess and history. Personally, I think this is the best view of Copenhagen. You can walk to the top of the spiral spire offering panoramic views. You have to be okay with hights as the space is very narrow and the railing very short.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Sasha Scherg
Travel to eat and see awe worthy places 🏔️🍝
I'm a hotel- and restaurant photographer located in Copenhagen, Denmark. I'm a digital nomad some of the year, and my journey with traveling far and for long, started in Guatemala in 2011.
I've been your typical dirty backpacker, and I've stayed in incredible suites at 5-star hotels. In reality, I like the middle of the two: eating delicious and affordable foods, going into nature and getting to know a culture. I simply wanna enjoy life.
My top 5 favourite travel moments are:
🔫 Playing paintball in ruins of Medellin, Colombia.
🍜 Having the meal of my life in a small izakaya bar in Kyoto, Japan.
🌥️ Skydiving in Costa Rica.
🎊Pool party crawl in Nicaragua.
🥃 Drinking rom and smoking cigars in Havana, Cuba.
Besides using the experience from all of my trips, I also use my experience from working in a travel agency and in the hotel- and restaurant industry when I decide where to go and what to do there.
I hope you want to bring me on your next adventure!
