Copenhagen is located on the coast of Oresund passage. Therefore bridges and channels are an indispensable part of a local landscape. New city area Frederiksberg and 26 nearest communities enter in the structure of Big Copenhagen, besides the historical center ("old" Copenhagen).
The main railway station Hovedbanegarden/Kobenhavn is located in the center, near to Radhuspladsen (Town Hall square). It is the major transport unit of the city, trains and buses of all directions whence send. There is the largest entertaining park Tivoli near the station.
Receiving Mail
by aliante1981
Everybody (well, almost!) likes receiving letters - I certainly do, though there are other, more modern and efficient means of communication - e-mail, phone, and such like. However, if you simply like getting letters or if you need, say, the originals or paper copies of some documents sent to you while you are on the move, you can use the poste restante service. Your best bet is to use the American Express service, which is available for free to clients - you should hold either their card or travellers cheques. They are reliable and present in all major cities.
Copenhagen Tip
by twiggy27
My memory of Copenhagen are the bikes that everyone has. If you are biking with children you have a wagon on the front of your bike, like a gypsey wagon. Some men even carries women in theirs!! The bikes are also very old fashioned which suprised me, compared to our range of bikes here in the UK.
