Here, we’ll take a moment to soak in the lively atmosphere and admire the blend of history and modern life. Did you know this was once home to Hans Christian Andersen? He lived in several houses here while penning some of his most famous fairytales. As we start our tour, let Nyhavn’s picturesque setting and rich stories welcome you to the heart of Copenhagen. From here, we’ll head towards Christianshavn and explore more of the city’s hidden gems.
