The former shipyard at 'Refshaleøen' is a great place to explore. Go for a walk through the big beautiful industrial buildings, and visit the many newly opened cafes, beer breweries, and restaurants Photo: © Ture Andersen

This bookshop, Charlottenborg Art Books, found at the entrance of the art hall, has a great curated selection of both artist’ books and general art books on art, design and architecture. If you want to dive into experimental book designs from Europe this is the place to visit.

Nice place in summer for drinks and food. Close to the water as I prefer it. Music and nice dancing if the company is right.

Nestled just north of the city, Dyrehaven is a vast, surreal landscape of meadows, castles, and gnarled fairy-tale like forests — Inhabited by a seemingly infinite population of wild deer. Lovely for runs, strolls, woodland adventures, and the like.

Best shawarma in Copenhagen. Open until 5am in weekends
