Royal Denmark

Radhuspladsen is one of the most famous and liveliest of Copenhagen and one can say that is the nerve center of the Danish capital.

The square itself is a great public space, a reference point for the inhabitants of Copenhagen.

The City Hall, built in 1903, is rectangular. Its facade and perimeter are decorated with many statues of Norse mythology, especially dragons and snakes. Inside you can visit the astronomical clock of Jens Olsen, a jewel of engineering in the first half of the twentieth century.

There are also guided tours to the top of the tower of City Hall, which at a height of 105 meters offering breathtaking views of Copenhagen.

Radhuspladsen is surrounded by large buildings, among which eg Hotel Palace, built in the early twentieth century

At the corner of Avenue H. C. Andersen Vesterbrogade Rishshuset the tower, we find the famous Copenhagen Girl of Time, a barometer of 1930 with rotating two female figures: a woman on a bicycle to announce good weather and a woman with an umbrella when it will rain. At present the mechanism does not work, but you can see the two figures.

A few meters from City Hall is the Tivoli in Copenhagen. And since Radhuspladsen out one of the longest pedestrian streets in the world: Stroget, which stretches to the Kongens Nytorv, the square which is the Teatro Real.
