7: Visit the Royal Palaces at (Activity) Address: Amalienborg Slotsplads 5, 1257 København K, Denmark About: When you think of a royal palace, you usually think of one set building. In Copenhagen's case, there are actually four distinct buildings that surround a large central square. Why four? Apparently, because it was originally inhabited by four noble families. Only, when burnt down in 1794, the royal family needed a new place to live. For the king and queen, it wouldn't do to live in the same palace lesser nobility had previous inhabited. The solution? Acquire all four noble houses and turn them into a super-palace. While the Queen still uses some of the buildings as her winter residence, others are open to the public or converted into a museum. This is also a fantastic spot to see the changing of the guard, and for a slice of history head to the corner facing the fountain (and opera house). Looking back into the square, you'll see a small patch of damaged stucco. That patch is an un-repaired piece of the palace that illustrates blast damage from WWII.

7: Barrel Cocktails at The Barking Dog, a Modern Cocktail Pub (Night Time) Address: Sankt Hans Gade 19, 2200 København N, Denmark About: While many places use loud DJs, and big lights, The Barking Dog likes to keep things simple and quiet. They pride themselves on keeping the music low so that you can hear your conversation and enjoy your friends or families company. The décor within this bar is much like a British pub, dark wood, chequered flooring but simple and homely. Most of their drinks are already pre mixed within barrels, which means that their serving time is cut down dramatically, ensuring you can get your drinks quickly and without fuss! There are several drinks that stand out, the first being the ‘aviation’ cocktail, which is designed as a pre-dinner drink, containing gin, lemon and cherry liquor. Their speciality cocktail Diablo is definitely worth a try, but their ingredients kept somewhat secret. An exciting concept that The Barking Dog have is their ‘hot cocktails’ such as the ‘Diplomat’ that is hot mint tea infused with rum and lemon. What we love is they also have a rather impressive menu of non alcoholic drinks, and we recommend the ‘ting time’ which is mint, grapefruit and lime! - World's Best Bars Opening hours Sunday 4PM-12AM Monday 4PM-12AM Tuesday 4PM-1AM Wednesday 4PM-1AM Thursday 4PM-1AM Friday 4PM-2AM Saturday 4PM-2AM Phone number: +45 35 36 16 00 Website: http://thebarkingdog.dk/ Reviews https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-barking-dog-k%C3%B8benhavn https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g189541-d9740828-Reviews-The_Barking_Dog- Copenhagen_Zealand.html
