Denmark

Denmark is a Nordic country officially called the Kingdom of Denmark, which consists of the large Jutland peninsula and more than 400 islands. Denmark has a long coastline with many beautiful lagoons and gulfs. The terrain of this country is mostly flat with a few gently rolling plains. Although Denmark is in northern Europe, the warm waters of the Gulf Stream make the climate mild. Danes have one of the highest standards of living and are told to be one of the happiest nations in the world. The capital city of Denmark - Copenhagen is home to more than 1 million people. Copenhagen is the right place for those, who love and enjoy gourmet experience. This Danish capital has more Michelin-starred restaurants than any other Scandinavian capital. You should try the open sandwiches called smørrebrød, which are a typical Danish lunch. These sandwiches are made of cold cuts, cheese, and spreads on a piece of dark, rye bread. Denmark is a bicycle loving country. Most of the Copenhageners commute to work every day on bicycle and it is said that Denmark has more than twice the amount of bicycles than cars.
