Kastrup Airport is one of the four largest airports in Europe, the other three being Amsterdam Schiphol, London Heathrow and Paris Charles de Gaulle. As soon as I entered the baggage area of the airport, I searched for the airport's Chinese wifi app. It seems that the influence of the motherland is growing day by day. I will introduce the airport in detail later, so I will just briefly mention it here.
For those who want to know the airport map and various details, there are ticket machines for trains to get around the baggage claim area. Because Copenhagen is close to the Swedish city of Malmö, even closer than Helsingør and Odense, the ticket machines at the airport sell tickets to Denmark and Sweden. I remember that if you face the wall, Sweden is on the left.
On the right is Denmark. Denmark's train tickets are divided into two types: first-class and standard seats. The prices are very different. The difference is that first-class seats have a TV and you can sit anyway. It's a short distance, so don't mistake it for stand tickets. It's recommended to buy cheaper ones. There are no ticket inspectors on trains and subways throughout Denmark, but there will be ticket inspectors on the train from time to time.
If you don't have a ticket, you will be fined more than 750 DKK and your credit record will be recorded. Don't take chances. Also, you should get on the train as soon as possible after buying the ticket, because the ticket has a time limit. If you want to eat or something, it's best to buy it after you finish eating just in case. In addition, the metroen and the train station are usually together, which is easy to confuse.
The icon shows that the subway has one more tunnel than the train. As shown in the picture, the train is toget on the top and the subway is metroen on the bottom. Plans often cannot keep up with changes. Since the domestic wifi rental company told them that the signal in the Nordic region was not very stable, Yunluo and An Chuyu decided to buy a mobile phone card locally. This decision was later proved to be a serious mistake.
First, after chatting with people in the same field, I found that the wifi signal of the domestic rental is very stable. There is no problem of poor signal in Norway and unusable in Sweden. Secondly, the Internet access of the telecommunications operators in each of the three Nordic countries is not universal. There is even a problem that the mobile phone card bought in Oslo cannot be used in Tromsø in northern Norway.
I suggest you rent a SIM card a month in advance in China. The prices are similar. In Denmark, it costs about 50 yuan for a TDC SIM card, and 50 yuan for 2G data. I will talk about Norwegian telenor later. I didn't buy a SIM card in a hurry, and I also forgot to check the CPH offline map I downloaded before.
Here I recommend an app: cphcitywalks. It is very useful, with automatic positioning, and can be used even without an internet connection. Continuing from the last time, due to various reasons, I spent a full hour looking for the four-star hotel I booked on booking.com, and wandering around Copenhagen at night with my luggage, it was a bad start.
Fortunately, with the help of the police, we finally found our way back. There was a shooting in Copenhagen two days before Yunluo and Anchuyu arrived. It was creepy. The positive energy is that there are more policemen on the street to ask for directions. The hotel is near the Copenhagen New Harbor. The reason why I chose Adina is because of this place.
It is very close to the DFDS cruise port that Yunluo and An Chuyu were going to take the next day. It is about a 5-minute walk away. The hotel also provides bicycle rental services for 125 DKK per day. Copenhagen is a city of bicycles. I personally think that cycling around the main urban area is the most ideal way to enjoy the beautiful scenery while exercising.
Why not, haha. The price of a double room + triple room is about 3300dkk. Copenhagen at night. I found that the buildings in Copenhagen are all large glass windows, very uniform. No wonder the aesthetics of urban construction are all based on Copenhagen. It is worthy of being the design capital, and it is very beautiful in itself.
After dropping off my things at the hotel and taking a short break, I strolled along the street and went to the supermarket I just passed by. This is a medium-sized supermarket near the hotel. Here, I will talk about the prices in Northern Europe that Yunluo knows. Norway should be bigger than Sweden and bigger than Denmark, especially in terms of food and drink. Norway is simply the center of the universe.
Burger King costs around 150 per person, because Norway adds 25% tax. Sweden is slightly cheaper but still expensive. A 20-minute taxi ride costs about 550 SEK. Only Denmark has good quality. For tourists, the price level of restaurants in Copenhagen is acceptable, similar to the price of mid-range restaurants in Beijing. As for drinking water, most of the Nordic countries use direct drinking water.
You can consider bringing a cup, but it doesn't make much sense. I remember that a 2.5L soda can in this supermarket only cost 12 yuan. But coke is more expensive, a large bucket costs about 50dkk. Taxis start at 25-35dkk, 15-25dkk per kilometer, and there are differences in time and day of the week.
The fare from the airport to the downtown pedestrian street is about 250-300 DKK, fully loaded with 4 people. I wanted to buy a recharge card for my mobile phone, but I found that the recharge cards sold in the supermarket are all QR codes. I didn't realize that I could recharge to the SIM card given by a friend at the convenience store near the subway station. What a mistake.
I bought two bottles of soda for 12 yuan, dropped them off at the hotel and walked around the New Port beach. There were still many people walking their dogs at 9:00 pm, and it was cold. I stayed there for half an hour and decided to go back to the hotel to sleep considering the shooting a few days ago. The room that Yunluo, An Chuyu and the other two shared was huge, with two bedrooms and a living room. There was also an open kitchen~ and the journey was really tiring.
After plugging in the charger, I took a shower and went to bed. Breakfast coupons for five people at Adina Hotel Copenhagen. I went to bed at 11pm. Because of the time difference, I woke up at 3:30. I couldn't stand it until 5pm and went downstairs to surf the Internet and check my Moments. Haha. I sat there until 7pm, holding five restaurant tickets.
The breakfast that starts at 7 o'clock shows that the Nordic people are actually very hardworking and will not slack off because of the high welfare. There were still many guys chatting in the restaurant of Adina Hotel Copenhagen at 10 o'clock last night. In fact, the quality should be good. Let's get back to the topic.
Let’s briefly talk about Copenhagen (Danish: k?benhavn; English: copenhagen, which means merchant’s port in Chinese). It is the capital, largest city and largest port of the Kingdom of Denmark, the largest city in Northern Europe, and the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Denmark.
Located in the eastern part of Zealand, Denmark, it faces Malmö, the third largest city in Sweden, across the Øresund Strait. It takes half an hour by train to reach Malmö. Copenhagen was once selected by the United Nations Human Settlements Program as the "most livable city" and rated as the "best designed city". Most of Denmark's important food, shipbuilding, machinery, electronics and other industries are concentrated here.
Many important international conferences in the world are held here. For example, the Climate Conference. Let's talk about the restaurants and food in Copenhagen. An "open" sandwich called "sm?rrebr?d" is one of the most common traditional local foods. Greenland Musk Beef, Icelandic Fresh Fish, Lamb.
Wild berries and herbs from the Danish coastal forests are the favorites of Danish chefs. According to the Nordic Tourism Board, Copenhagen has a total of 15 Michelin stars, which means there are 11 1-star restaurants and 2 2-star restaurants. Among them, noma restaurant was named the best restaurant in the world by Fine Dining Lovers magazine in 2010, 2011 and 2012.
In 2013, the restaurant was ranked second in the world's best restaurants and received two stars in the 2014 Michelin Guide. Chef Renredzepi is very good at Scandinavian cuisine. The ingredients come from Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and of course, Denmark.
Redzepi was a chef at the famous El Bulli (Catalonia), so it's no surprise that the food here is of great taste and quality. The restaurant is located in a renovated seaside warehouse in Christianshavn, with a unique and attractive interior.
In addition, readers of the well-known international travel website tripadvisor have selected noma as the best restaurant in the world. Michelin European Restaurant Guide/europe/ Because the clouds fell when noma was temporarily opening a store in Tokyo, Japan, it directly missed the world's number one restaurant selected by a British food magazine.
Fortunately, Yunluo was lucky enough to book another Michelin two-star restaurant in CPH, the geranium dinner prepared by rasmuskofoed, the world's best chef in 2011, which fulfilled a small wish. There will be a detailed introduction later, so I will skip it here. If you have the opportunity to read the guide, you can book noma online.
The well-known dark cuisine only accepts online reservations. The address is /goddag,cphOn the morning of New Year's Eve, it was actually past two in the afternoon in Beijing. Sitting by the window in a foreign country, looking at the backs of people hurrying by in the early morning, I believe there is always homesickness. Fortunately, I am surrounded by classmates, friends and relatives.
Ready to go~ The cycling route predicted in the guide has basically been achieved. Haha. In the road book for this Nordic trip, because of my previous experience in traveling in Europe, I first searched for the Copenhagen Card. Because many cities in Europe have preferential city cards for tourists, which basically include public transportation, attraction tickets, etc.
Many of them are all-inclusive, and of course there are also some discounts after buying the card. Here I would also like to introduce the Copenhagen Card. The CPH card includes about 70+ museums and free public transportation, as well as discounts in some shops and restaurants. The price is divided into 4 types per hour.
The prices for 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 120 hours are 399dkk, 469dkk, 559dkk and 779dkk respectively. I think it is worth it if you are sure to spend a few days in CPH. If it is just one or two days or not for the purpose of visiting attractions, then you have to consider it, because Yunluo believes that cycling is actually the best way to understand CPH.
Of course, interested students can go to the official website to find out more. / After checking out of Copenhagen, I stored my luggage. I pushed away the 5 bicycles at the door. It was already past 8 o'clock, and Copenhagen in Northern Europe was still early in the morning. The small road near CPH New Harbor was dimly lit.
It can be seen that the ground is very wet and clean. The wind is strong, and the dust is very cold. In Copenhagen, the street lights in Europe are all thin iron poles with a very small bend. Is this a characteristic of Europeans? Copenhagen reminds Yunluo of the rose window grilles of Notre Dame de Paris. Is this a sunflower window grille?
Copenhagen In the early morning in Copenhagen, the cars are parked everywhere. There are classmates running in the distance in Copenhagen. They can't go out in Beijing. The fresh air in Copenhagen and the interesting graffiti on the roadside. The road to Rosenborg Palace in Copenhagen. It feels like Yunluo and An Chuyu are a group of children riding bicycles to school.
There is a railway on the roadside. Copenhagen National Gallery. National Gallery, diagonally opposite is the main entrance of Rosenborg Palace. It seems that some body art is on display. The locals in Copenhagen are driving very fast, so please pay attention to safety. Most Danish bicycles are geared, with the brake on the left and the gearbox on the right, which is a reasonable design.
I still remember when I was a kid, I squeezed the right brake so hard that the front wheel would stop and the rear wheel would jump up. Copenhagen The weather in Copenhagen was sunny early in the morning. People were already on their way to work. A cycling trip in the cool winter weather. Teammates came from far away, and Yunluo turned back to capture these moments because he passed a red light first.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Cycling in Copenhagen, from left to right: Mr. LV, Mr. C200 in the front row, and Professor S and his wife, Ms. W in the back row. Denmark is a kingdom of bicycles. In 2010, 36% of Danish adults rode bicycles to work, and 45% of Danish students rode bicycles to school. In Copenhagen, half of the residents ride bicycles to work and school every day.
The Copenhagen City Government has also been re-planning streets and developing cycling regulations. The Copenhagen City Government plans to build 26 bicycle highways around the capital. Encouraging people to ride bicycles in and out of Copenhagen is also quite tough. City planners are said to have shouted the slogan "Let bicycle lanes exceed interstate highways."
With the first bicycle highway, the number of cyclists on this section of road will increase by 30%, or 15,000 people, saving 7,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions and 300 million Danish kroner in medical expenses each year. In Denmark, bicycle lanes are on the right side of motor roads and are also controlled by traffic lights. Be careful not to walk on bicycle lanes.
It is easy to be dangerous. Also, when riding a bicycle, pay attention to the people overtaking behind you. When turning, make a big arm gesture in the same direction. Of course, you will find that some local cyclists and pedestrians also run red lights. Haha. A city bus whizzed by in the lane next to Rosenborg Palace. There are guards holding submachine guns at the back door of Rosenborg Palace.
I don't know what it has to do with the shooting a while ago? This is a one-way street outside the garden. I had to push my bike and strolled around. I found a mini excavator digging a one-square-meter pit on the side of the road. Inside the garden were trees trimmed into candlestick shapes. They used a lift to move the trees one by one. Is Denmark's labor cost cheap or expensive?
In the kindergarten opposite Rosenborg Palace, children are chasing, playing and kicking the flagpole. The two little devils in the lower right corner. I don't know what the connection is between this maelk and the Danish dota player maelk. sundhed, maybe it means to take care of in Danish. I walked around Rosenborg Palace and realized that I just passed this inconspicuous little door.
The back of the main entrance to the Rosenborg Palace Garden. This city park-like garden is a free attraction where you can only push your bike, not ride it. The crown decoration on the iron gate shows the status of this royal summer palace. Does it feel like the tree in the Lord of the Rings? Haha. A huge oak tree.
In Europe and America, oak trees are regarded as mysterious trees. Legend has it that the rulers of these tall and strong trees are the Greek god Zeus, the Roman god of love Cupid, and the goddess of the hearth Vesta. Legend has it that in the mountain forest of the temple of Zeus, there stands a towering oak tree with divine power, and the rustling sound of the oak leaves is the message from the god Zeus to the Greeks.
Many countries regard oak as a sacred tree, believing it to have magical powers and to be a symbol of longevity, strength and pride. Oak is hard and has a wide crown, so it is known as the "king of the forest". In English, it is called oak. People often tie red ribbons on oak trees to express their longing for and yearning for their relatives far away. Rosenborg Palace Clouds fall in Northern Europe and the weather is sunny.
There are many new saplings beside the big tree. They stopped a foreign friend by the tree to take a photo with Yunluo and Anchuyu, and then took photos. In Britain and France, early wizards were called Druids. This name comes from Celtic, meaning "knowing oak". These "knowing oak" people are the earliest intellectuals in society.
They usually serve as local priests, teachers and judges. In European and American culture, the oak tree is a symbol of power and is associated with authority. It has extraordinary majesty, special bearing and mysterious power. In the sacrificial ceremony of Druidism, the oak tree is placed as the axis, symbolizing the wisdom of men.
Its fruit is regarded as the sacred fruit of Druidism. In Greek mythology, when Zeus's priests performed the spell of praying for rain, they would hold oak branches and dip them into the holy spring to dip water. Oak trees are thick and tall, with lush crowns, and are related to human life. Westerners think that oak trees are a symbol of strength and power. There is a German proverb that says "You can't knock down an oak tree with one hand."
The Druids worship nature and worship the oak tree as a symbol of the Supreme God. Therefore, they believe that the mistletoe parasitic on the oak tree is a panacea, which has sacred power and the best therapeutic effect. Of course, it needs to be collected through a particularly solemn ceremony. It can only be collected on the days of the full moon and the new moon. (To be continued..)
