It was built from 1885 to 1887 for the growing English congregation in the city. It is in a peaceful park setting at the end of Amaliegade in the northern part of the city centre, next to the citadel Kastellet and the Gefion Fountain and Langelinie. It's also just a short walk to the LIttle Mermaid Statue

Copenhagen at Night
Copenhagen has definitely moved into my favorite cities list. On the night I was there, I wanted to find a good sunset spot. One of the locals told me about the 17th century Trinitatis Church. For a small fee, you can climb the Round Tower, which leads to this amazing observation area. It was pretty cold, but the sunset made it worth the climb.

Copenhagen Metro
The Metro in Copenhagen is all computer-driven, no human driver. So, you can actually sit right up in front. It took me a few rides to get that prime spot......and when I did I heard a lot of Danish conversation behind me......probably wondering why I had my camera pressed against the glass.

Nyhavn
This is likely the most photographed area of Copenhagen. I was here on a late afternoon in March, so it was still quite cold and most of the boats were covered up. The restaurants actually give out blankets so you can still dine outside. Anywhere you stand, it is a beautiful scene.

The Marble Church
The inside of this church is just breaktaking. To be honest, I didn't even know it was a church from the outside. But I am certainly glad that I was inside to explore. I think I read that it is the largest domed church in Scandinavia.

St. Albans Church
St. Albans Anglican Church in Copenhagen…..I was actually trying to find that Little Mermaid statue when I came across this awesome church…..and the church ended up being way more interesting. The Little Mermaid is still kind of neat to see……its just off to the right of picture, surrounded by a huge group of Nikon-armed Japanese tourists. So, I gave up and came back here. There was something about the facade of this church, with the cool clouds and the setting sun that warranted a few pics. I tried to get inside but some determined Danish church-lady told me that she was busy and I should come back another day. I thought…..”Sure, I live 4500 miles from here…..I’ll just stop in next week”.

Rosenbog Slot
A few years back, I was lucky enough to spend a night in Copenhagen....a layover on the way back to Atlanta. Armed with Google maps, I walked around for 6 hours, jamming in as many touristy sites as I could....the Little Mermaid, Nyhavn, Tivoli Gardens, you name it But this one caught me by surprise, I asked a local and he told me "Oh, thats the castle". Of course, the castle. I mean, why wouldn't I expect to find a castle in the middle of a big city??.. So, I had make a detour and investigate a bit. Found out it was built in 1606 and was used as a royal residence unitl the early 1700s Unfortunately, it was closed for the night so I couldnt tour it...but the setting sun and the clouds made for a super cool backdrop.
