And time for part 2..

This time we visited Sydhavnen and the new residential and commercial stuff going up there..

And I gotta say I was very impressed by the residentail stuff - I could easily see myself moving there in a few years when more of the stuff there have been completed..

We also took a walk in the large nature area Fællen and finished off at Islands Brygge and took a look over the city from Fisketorvet Mall's roof..

Here we go..

Inner City in the distance

Ørestad in the distance

Nature on Fællen

Small private gardens with the city in the background

And finally a mood pictures from Nyhavn where we ended up spending the evening doing what Danes do best...

That's all folks!

^glad you like them and I got more fresh from today

I took a ton of pics and desperatly need some sleep right now so I'll devide it into a couple parts after area and post them over the comming days

I'll start with Part 1 in the Østerbro District where I really love the atmosphere down the sidestreets and the funny trendy people walking around there

Here we go - starting out just north of Trianglen Square on Østerbrogade

Trianglen Square

Walking down sidestreet..

Plesner Building

Østerport Station ( S-Train and Regional )

Walkway over the tracks

Looking North

^what is stopping you?

Time for another part - this time Kastellet the old fortification from 1626

Back in the day moat based defenses surrounded the entire city, but as time went and the city grew it has now ended up in the center of town more or less..
Personally I hold the place very dear as I used to work there while in the military, as the place is not only historic but a very active part of the Danish military and home to the Military Intelligence, the Chief of Defence and various brances of the Home Defence among other things
To most however it works as one of the city's best parks doing the daytime, so let's take a look..

The place has two entrances - here's one - this was how all gates to the city used to look like a few centuries ago..

Mainstreet

The church that is still very active to this day

The home of the Chief of Defense

Let's take a walk up on the bastions..

The star shaped moat and sloping sides

In case of war the outlaying windmills might have been lost to the invaders so the fortification has it own

The southern entrance

The place used to packed with cannons defending the habour and city

Now there's only a couple cannons left for atmosphere

And to keep the tourists behave

This bastion covers the entrance to the habour

In the habour you will find two other forts defendeing the habour inlet ( Sweden in the horrizon )

Northern Entrance

Yes the place is active and it is protected quite well despite the lax atmosphere

Change of guards

Time to leave..

Memorial to the fallen Danes

Swans patrolling the moat..

That's it for this part... stay tuned

Time for another part..

Close to where I live in the Nordvest District there is a small cute residential area..

Ghandi's Square

And we're back

That's it's for this time - stay tuned folks

And once again I will kindly ask people to reply if you like what you see or have questions - the pages get very picture heavy if they have 20 set's of photos so every note is very appriciated

People having problem seeing all the pics can try to allow more memory usage by their browser - this should hopefully solve any problems..

FREKI · #**131** Posted **Jun 19, 2009, 12:27 AM**

Time for another part..

This time a small revisit to an area in the Frederiksberg District

Not much to say about the area other than it lies on the border to the Nordvest and Nørrebro Districts and is home to a couple good supermarkets ( why I often go there )

Here we go..
