Pedestrians rule in Højbro Plads, a lively square in the central, car-free Strøget shopping district
Danes know how to turn a humble snack into a lavish feast, for the eye as well as the palate, with their traditional smørrebrød open sandwiches. In Copenhagen, entire restaurants are dedicated to this wonderfully versatile dish, and there are many other delights to sample, from shopping paradise Strøget to royal palaces and the colorful Nyhavn harbor area.
