Denmark is an oasis with white beaches, green beech forests, purple heather-clad hills, blue fjords and golden cornfields. Even the largest cities are worth to see.
In Denmark life is simple and uncomplicated. The heritage is rich and proud and people are free and unceremonious.
The Danish society is built upon the famous Scandinavian welfare model, and the gap between the richest and the poorest is of limited portion. You can see Danish ministers riding their bikes to the Parliament or the Queen doing her shopping on Stroget, Copenhagen’s well-known long pedestrian street.
Denmark is famous for its farm products, particularly butter, cheese, bacon, ham, and other processed foods. It is also known for its beautifully designed manufactured goods, including furniture, porcelain, and silverware.
