Where to unwind
You can relax in the King’s Garden near Rosenborg Castle, or along the grassy banks of the Lakes that arc around the city centre. On sunny days, locals flock to harbour baths and waterfront decks, and evenings are perfect for a quiet walk by the canals as the city lights reflect on the water.

For a memorable evening, choose restaurants along the canals or in the historic buildings of the inner city, where large windows frame views of the water and rooftops. Some venues offer tasting menus that highlight seasonal ingredients, giving you a refined introduction to contemporary Nordic cuisine.
