Or you might want to stay awhile in Denmark.
It's a very friendly country with quaint villages, lots of lakes and few
crowds. Copenhagen is a great city with everything you would expect
in a capital city. Make sure you visit the Tivoli Gardens, a real trip back
in time and a spectacular midnight firework display. Not far from Esbjerg
is the medieval city of Ribe with its attractive old buildings and winding
streets. And of course Denmark is a great country for cycling, with cycle
lanes everywhere and where the cyclist is king! |
