The Little Mermaid - Copenhagen

The Little Mermaid on the Langelinie waterfront is a Copenhagen icon recognized worldwide. This bronze statue of a young girl sitting sadly on a rock, inspired by Andersen's fairy tale, was unveiled in 1913. While its actual size is smaller than expected (only about a meter), it's often crowded with tourists. This must-see spot in the city lies in its simple charm and seaside atmosphere. It's easily accessible, close to Kastellet and a park, perfect for a stroll. Feel the solitude of the Little Mermaid from the original fairy tale. If you come early in the morning, there will be fewer people and better photos. While it may seem small and may seem ordinary to some, it truly captures the essence of Copenhagen. It's a landmark worth visiting at least once. #TravelTalk

New Harbor

Copenhagen in December is pure hygge magic 🧣✨: fairy-tale harbors, legendary mermaids, and Christmas markets lit in gold. Here’s the must-see sweep if you want those real Danish winter vibes! Top Spots to Visit: 🧜♀️ The Little Mermaid (Langelinie, 2100 København Ø) – Swing by the iconic sculpture, open all day, any season. Pro tip: Arrive early if you want that solitary Insta moment. 🎄 Christmas Market Højbro Plads – This cozy explosion of twinkle lights and holiday magic is right at the heart of the city. Grab warm gløgg and shop for local treats! 🌈 New Harbor (Nyhavn, Indre By) – The storybook canal with rainbow facades shines brightest near Christmas. Try a morning stroll for crowd-free photos, then come back after sunset for extra sparkle. 🏰 Kastellet (Gl. Hovedvagt, Kastellet 1, 2100 København) – This star-shaped fortress is a peaceful walk in winter (open 6:00–20:00). The ramparts give you killer views of both city and sea—perfect for a brisk December walk after market sweets. Quick Tips: Bundle up! The wind by the harbor is no joke in December. Bring cash for smaller Christmas market vendors. Try traditional Danish pastries at the markets—especially æbleskiver! Transport: Use Copenhagen’s Metro and buses for easy travel between spots. Buy a City Pass for unlimited rides. Weather: Expect chilly temps and possible drizzle, so dress warm and waterproof. Food Recs: Cozy up at Nyhavn’s historic cafés for smørrebrød (open-faced sandwiches) and Scandinavian mulled wine. #CopenhagenChristmas #NyhavnVibes #ScandiWinter #Tripcom #HolidayWander
