We spent a few hours on Sunday at Tivoli. I had always heard of Tivoli Gardens so I thought of it as primarily a large garden park. I had never realized that it was also quite an amusement park. We had a delightful time at Tivoli, and soon realized that this is where Copenhagen families go on a sunny Sunday. The park was bustling but that was a lot of the fun.
There were many teenagers there on their own to enjoy the rides, screaming as they should as they were thrown and dropped and tossed on the various rides. Little kids were running around swinging their plastic swords and enjoying sticky sweets. Couples wandered hand in hand, old and young. And everyone enjoyed the many choices of food and drink, including ourselves.
It was a great relaxing break for these two intrepid tourists. Here are a few sights to enjoy.
I love seeing all the European architecture in these pictures! It’s funny that your weather has been so cold and cloudy, ours has been almost completely hot and cloudless lately (although we’re supposed to be getting some rain soon).
We have really enjoyed the architecture. Of course it is just everywhere around you. But everyone in a while you turn a corner and see something particularly amazing. We’ll have lots of pictures to show you when we get home.
I look forward to that!
Six Flags over Europe?
I’d be mighty disappointed if they had any of those garish amusement parks over there.
