Royal Palace Amalienborg

My advice is to check out the little shops and cafes nearby after your visit. Some serve amazing pastries that need to be tried. I regretted not having a snack to really enjoy the ambiance!

If you're into architecture like I am, take your time walking around the exterior of the palace. I spent too much time inside when the real gems are outside. Don't rush it!

Make sure to time your visit around the changing of the guard at noon! It's a lovely spectacle and totally free to watch. Just find a good spot early to avoid a crowd.
I found the audio guide super helpful, but be careful of the price. Look out for package deals that might save you money if you plan to visit other sites too.
Town Hall Square
Christiansborg
New Royal Square

Take a walk around the square at around 6 PM when the lights come on. The atmosphere is magical, and you'll avoid the larger day-time crowds.

Check out the little hidden cafes nearby for a cheap coffee and pastry. I stumbled upon one just around the corner and it totally made my morning!

I suggest bringing a good camera, the architectural details are stunning! I got some great shots that I still look back on fondly
My advice is to wear comfy shoes because you'll end up walking a lot more than you think. The square connects to so many interesting spots!
Oresund Bridge
Church of the Savior
Frederick's Church

I recommend dressing in layers. The inside can feel a bit chilly, especially if you're there for a while admiring the details and art.

I think the best time to visit is around 9 AM. It's way less crowded, and you can take some great photos of the church before the tourist rush hits.

I suggest bringing a small snack and some water. There’s not much around, and after walking around, it’s handy to have something to munch on.

You might want to explore the surrounding area too. The neighborhood has some lovely cafes and shops, so you can spend a nice afternoon there after the visit
New Harbor

Don’t forget to bring some cash! Some shops and eateries don't accept cards, which caught me off guard. I ended up having to search for an ATM nearby

My advice is to stroll the area during sunset. The vibrant colors reflecting on the water make it a picture-perfect moment! Plus, it’s less crowded compared to peak evenings.

If you're looking for a quick snack, swing by one of the food stalls instead of a full sit-down meal. I found a great hot dog cart that was delicious and easy on the wallet!
Church of Our Lady

I suggest you bring a small donation if you can. They appreciate it and it really helps with maintaining the stunning architecture. Plus it's like you're a part of keeping the history alive.
Royal Library of Denmark

grab a coffee at the cafe inside. prices are reasonable compared to other places in copenhagen, and the atmosphere is lovely for a break during your visit
Check out the waterfront area before you go inside. The view of the library from the outside is stunning, especially around sunset. It's the perfect spot for photos!

If you want to avoid crowds, visit on a weekday, especially around 10 AM. I found it much quieter then, and I could appreciate the architecture without too many people around.
