Nyhavn

What was once a seedy street down by the harbour now attracts people with lots of bars and restaurants.

King Christian V had the canal built from 1671-73, to connect the harbour with the city centre. Nyhavn has two sides: the sunny side, with the colourful houses, and the shaded, proper side where not much happens. The blue house Nyhavn No. 9 bearing the date 1681 was not, as is often claimed, the home of the poet H. C. Andersen. It probably belonged to the harbourmaster.

    Hard to believe this was once a seedy part of town; Nyhavn's a lovely meet-up spot, lined by lots of nice restaurants.

    Absolutes MUST in Kopenhagen. Super Fotomotiv. Restaurants sind teuer und wie Perlen aufgereiht. Halt echt Tourismus. Essen kann man anderswo authentischer und günstiger.

    Hier legen die Sightseeing-Boote ab, mit denen man durch Kopenhagens Kanäle und bis zur kleinen Meerjungfrau fahren kann.
