About Denmark
Denmark is flat and consists of the main penisula Jutland and 405 islands in the Baltic Sea, mostly connected by bridges and ferries to the smaller islands, with the famous Oresund bridge connecting Denmark with Sweden.
Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark, mostly known for its famous Little Mermaid staring at the waters and the Viking Ship Museum reminding us of Denmark’s bold ancient warriors.
A surprisingly nice destination to visit is LEGOLAND in Billund with its Miniland attraction for kids.
