7 Fairytale Places in Copenhagen

7. In the years before our years, Hans Christian Andersen was crafting some stories for us.

And how could our traveler end this tour elsewhere than at the Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytale house?

Right from the entrance, and up to the exit, the traveler gazed at the multitude of marvelous tableaux depicting scenes from the oh-so-well-known stories brilliantly crafted by the Danish author.

Who didn’t read The Little Mermaid? And who didn’t cry when hearing The Ugly Duckling’s tale? These timeless characters have certainly made each of us react at some point of our lives. And their father’s mastery is internationally recognized, as he’s considered one of the greatest writers in the world.

And, as you can’t thank him or shake his hand, you can do what our traveler did: spend a lot of time admiring this museum-house, the pictures, the hand-written manuscripts, the props and appliances collection, the rooms and the statue.

What a wonderful, lucky childhood I’m still living!, the traveler thought. What a beautiful, fairytale city!

The End.

Oh yes, and our nomad hero traveled happily ever after, of course!
