Get a much-needed respite from your hectic everyday life by taking a day of indulgence, complete with a hot stone massage and luxury facial. Later take on your favorite wool sweater and grab a warm Caramel Confuso from a local cafe to catch the afternoon sunset in warmth. To finish the day right, book a candlelit dinner paired with a nice red wine overlooking city center to do justice to a day such as this.
On New Year’s Eve get ready for fireworks all evening long. The show starts at 8 in the evening to celebrate midnight in Denmark, and then it continues at midnight to ring in our own new year. And it is not uncommon to get a little mini show or two in between.
