This bridge leads from the center to Christianshavn and Amager. Christianshavn is a really sweet and old area, with a canal with lots of boats, nice restaurants and cafes. Right next to Christianshavn is the Freetown Christiania.

Between colony gardens in Amager lies one of my favourite local spots: Baghaven. Good food and cosiness is in the forefront. Various events with and without music gather people on the square at Diamantgangen 75. A very local experience. Great for families, children, young and old.

Whenever I feel uninspired I visit the (now genericly named) Design Museum, formerly known as Kunstindustrimuseet. Sort of the V&A of Copenhagen. An old museum filled with gorgeus fabrics, weird artifacts and a cozy library filled with books about arts & crafts from around the world. If you're still uninspired after a visit here you're not able to. Don't forget to have lunch in the beautiful center garden surrounding by the overgrown buildings, statues and old trees.

A contemporary art exhibition space located right next to Østerport station, they have a nice little visual arts bookshop as well.
