My trip to Copenhagen, Denmark's capital and Scandinavia's largest city - with a lovely relaxed vibe. Copenhagen has never been on my bucket list until I went to Finland and Estonia. Since then, I’ve always been a fan of Scandinavian countries. Embracing the winter in its freezing glory, I decided to go Scandi again and the search began for the ideal winter location in the post-pandemic climate. So I explored a new destination in Denmark that did wonders for my soul, and my sanity.
There is an ethereal effortlessness to life in Copenhagen, which consistently tops surveys of the world’s best places to live. The very best things to do in Copenhagen are a like-for-like run through the many reasons travel is such an enveloping experience. Copenhagen has plenty to offer the most ambitious sightseer: world-class museums, a stately Renaissance castle, a dazzling royal palace, and yet one of my favorite Copenhagen activities is to simply stroll the streets tuning into the little details of everyday life here. Copenhagen is a mini-break from modern life. It's more relaxed than other cities and more human in character and scale. Walking in the streets of Copenhagen, I love taking in the mix of cobbled cuteness and modern bustle. Even with a million people, the city feels remarkably hyggelig — the Danish version of "cozy," an aesthetic highly prized here. Danes have a knack for enjoying everyday experiences, and their capital is the best place to sample the Danish good life. Copenhageners somehow manage to exude orderliness without being rigid — the whole city emits a sense of balance, and a general calm. Everything here is so old, classy and beautiful. It’s almost taken out of a fairytale. Denmark has one of the oldest democracies in the world, and a very long history, but having travelled here for two weeks, I’ve come to appreciate how it’s actually one of the most modern cities in the world. Everything from the architecture and design of the city to its mindset and heartbeat feel very modern. Instead of the glass and steel skyscrapers found in many capitals, Copenhagen is dominated by four to six-story buildings, with new and old rubbing shoulders. 我最近通过疫苗接种者旅游通道游 (Vaccinated Travel Lane) 去位于丹麦的哥本哈根。时隔两年,我终于可以飞往北欧,探寻冬日里的梦幻国度。如果小时候没读过安徒生童话,我也许永远无法想起那个北欧小国的古城。哥本哈根究竟是一座什么样的城市?它是北欧最大的城市,但城市的景致却充满小桥流水的温情;它有厚重的历史,但城市中充满轻快快乐的节奏;它是有文化底蕴的,但却绝不繁复,一切都是简约温婉的;它很cool,这不仅仅是指城市的温度,更是指城市的的风格;它很出色,这不仅仅是指城市的色彩,更是指城市生活的多姿多彩。 漫步在哥本哈根充满古典风情的城市建筑之际,也能邂逅那些与众不同的现代建筑,体验艺术与生活的完美融合。一座红砖绿瓦堆砌的古城,能把普普通通的一枚枚红砖,搭建成如此奇珍又如梦如幻的建筑艺术,到处都是一排排不同色彩的18世纪城市宅邸和精巧的雕塑,让人心驰神往。这座仿佛童话中的城市经历了岁月沧桑,却依旧保持着孩子般的纯真。 一个城市的魅力,不仅仅来自这座城市历史和文化的积淀,还有跟当地人接触的一次对白和谈话。了解一个城市不是走马观花的观光,而是静下心来忘掉自己,走进我要去的那个地方。在纷繁复杂的世界里,我一直找寻着与自己更为合拍的生活方式。在丹麦的哥本哈根,我发现了与自己契合的安静力量,收获了更多的思考和感受。缓慢而安静、古老又现代,相信这座“世界最幸福最宜居的城市”会给我带来童话和生活的新灵感。
