Rediscover yourself against the transformative backdrop of Copenhagen, where every corner has stories about personal and citywide metamorphosis to tell. On this unique walking tour, you‘ll see architectural jewels built in the last 100 years, from the historic Politigaarden (Police Headquarters) to the innovative sea farm beneath Kalvebod Bølge, or Kalvebod Wave. You‘ll also learn about the waterfront‘s transformation and be guided through a couple of mindfulness exercises. The tour starts at the Espresso House Café located in the Scandic Spectrum hotel and ends in front of Krystallen (or The Crystal), an impressive geometrical see-through building. From there, you‘ll engage in self-reflection exercises while learning about Copenhagen and Kalvebod Pier‘s evolution. You‘ll see Next House, the luxury hostel, and the district that once housed the Danish Postal Service, now a business district with great public spaces for all to enjoy. Expect a blend of mindfulness, self-reflection, and walking meditation, amplifying your experience beyond traditional sightseeing and history – although you‘ll get a good mix of that too!
