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

Stop by for breakfast or lunch. Great atmosphere and surroundings. Best coffee in town!

My favorite gallery in Copenhagen, located in the meatpacking area... its great for spotting up and coming talents but also established artists from around the world.

Mahalle is one of my favorite places for lunch or dinner. the food is lebanese and it is incredibly good at very reasonable prices. booking is often necessary Photo: © Ture Andersen

As the summer is my favorite time of the year and that the beach is just 15 min bikeride away, I recommend Amager strand. Full of people usually though, but even so it gives a bit of an exotic touch to such a scandinavian city with the sea and the bright sand in the hot summer days.
