Lersøparken Copenhagen

Plenty of space

"What's especially great about this patch of nature is the huge grass lawn. A lot of people come here to play soccer, frisbee or to walk their dogs."

Right next to Bispebjerg Station, you'll find another green oasis surrounded by the city buzz. Many simply bike through on their way between city boroughs, but this park is worth a little more time. What's especially great about this patch of nature is the huge grass lawn. A lot of groups come here to play soccer, frisbee or just to give their dog a good run, and it's no bother at all to the people taking a nap or enjoying a family gathering. There's plenty of space for everyone.

In the summer, the playground is a popular place, and because there's also a public restroom, it's a lovely park for a picnic. The park is neighboring the old Bispebjerg Hospital, which was built in 1913. The grounds and buildings are quite beautiful, and I recommend taking a walk through the area. Even if you stay in the park, the main hospital building is towering at the top of the hill, giving you a historic view.

Tutten

Tutten – As Danish as it gets

"Tutten" in Copenhagen has probably the best smørrebrød in town. Some of the city's restaurants are good but nothing comes close. A truly Danish experience

Amager Records – Music on vinyl

"Amager Records" is my favorite record store on my island in Copenhagen. Small and cramped as it should be, the super-helpful owners are also jazz fans!
