Copenhagen, Denmark | Famous Three Stork Fountain
Checking out the infamous stork fountain in the middle of Copenhagen. Originally, it was a wedding gift to the prince and princess of Denmark in 1894; today, since 1950, newly graduated midwives dance around the fountain as tradition now holds. I have no idea why other than the symbolism of storks and babys and midwives wanting to marry and have children.

Copenhagen, Denmark - Amalienborg (2018)
Amalienborg is the home of the Danish royal family, and is located in Copenhagen, Denmark. It consists of four identical classical palace façades with rococo interiors around an octagonal courtyard (Danish: Amalienborg Slotsplads); in the centre of the square is a monumental equestrian statue of Amalienborg's founder, King Frederick V.
Amalienborg was originally built for four noble families; however, when Christiansborg Palace burned on 26 February 1794, the royal family bought the palaces and moved in. Over the years various kings and their families have resided in the four different palaces.
Copenhagen is the capital and most populous city of Denmark. The city has a population of 775,033 (as of January 2018), of whom 613,288 live in the Municipality of Copenhagen and the Copenhagen urban area has a population of 1,308,893 (as of January 2018). Copenhagen is situated on the eastern coast of the island of Zealand; another small portion of the city is located on Amager, and is separated from Malmö, Sweden, by the strait of Øresund. The Øresund Bridge connects the two cities by rail and road.
Originally a Viking fishing village founded in the 10th century, Copenhagen became the capital of Denmark in the early 15th century. Beginning in the 17th century it consolidated its position as a regional centre of power with its institutions, defences and armed forces. After suffering from the effects of plague and fire in the 18th century, the city underwent a period of redevelopment. This included construction of the prestigious district of Frederiksstaden and founding of such cultural institutions as the Royal Theatre and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. After further disasters in the early 19th century when Horatio Nelson attacked the Dano-Norwegian fleet and bombarded the city, rebuilding during the Danish Golden Age brought a Neoclassical look to Copenhagen's architecture. Later, following the Second World War, the Finger Plan fostered the development of housing and businesses along the five urban railway routes stretching out from the city centre.
Since the turn of the 21st century, Copenhagen has seen strong urban and cultural development, facilitated by investment in its institutions and infrastructure. The city is the cultural, economic and governmental centre of Denmark; it is one of the major financial centres of Northern Europe with the Copenhagen Stock Exchange. Copenhagen's economy has seen rapid developments in the service sector, especially through initiatives in information technology, pharmaceuticals and clean technology. Since the completion of the Øresund Bridge, Copenhagen has become increasingly integrated with the Swedish province of Scania and its largest city, Malmö, forming the Øresund Region. With a number of bridges connecting the various districts, the cityscape is characterised by parks, promenades and waterfronts. Copenhagen's landmarks such as Tivoli Gardens, The Little Mermaid statue, the Amalienborg and Christiansborg palaces, Rosenborg Castle Gardens, Frederik's Church, and many museums, restaurants and nightclubs are significant tourist attractions. The largest lake of Denmark, Arresø, lies around 27 miles (43 kilometers) northwest of the City Hall Square.
Copenhagen is home to the University of Copenhagen, the Technical University of Denmark and Copenhagen Business School. The University of Copenhagen, founded in 1479, is the oldest university in Denmark. Copenhagen is home to the FC København and Brøndby football clubs. The annual Copenhagen Marathon was established in 1980. Copenhagen is one of the most bicycle-friendly cities in the world.
The Copenhagen Metro launched in 2002 serves central Copenhagen while the Copenhagen S-train and Lokaltog (private railway) and the Coast Line network serves and connects central Copenhagen to outlying boroughs. To relieve traffic congestion, which is partly the result of increased traffic because of the Fehmarn Belt Fixed Link road and rail construction is planned because the narrow 9-9.5 mile isthmus between Roskilde Fjord and Køge Bugt (Køge Bay) forms a traffic bottleneck. The Copenhagen-Ringsted Line will relieve traffic congestion in the corridor between Roskilde and Copenhagen.
Serving roughly two million passengers a month, Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup, is the busiest airport in the Nordic countries.

Copenhagen, April 6, 2016
Opening the new TIVOLI season, The Fifes & Drums Boy Guards paraded through the streets of Copenhagen with Pierrot entertaining!
Again, I had my overdose of adrenaline rush marching BACKWARD more than one kilometre and half in front of these young people aged 8 to 16.
Tak til Tivoli Garden, for musikken, sammen med deres vagter, både i uniform og i civil, samt en særlig tak til Pjerrot for underholdningen!
Vi ses igen!
Cheers!
The Tivoli Gardens Boys Guard was established the same year Tivoli Gardens opened for the first time in 1844! The musical formation began in 1909 and has continued til today.
Today up to 100 boys aged 8 to 16, with an average of less than 13, are a mini copy of the Danish Royal Guard. Each year 12 to 20 are enrolled to replace those leaving. They are schooled for one year in classical as well as in military music, before participating in the marches through the gardens and in Tivoli's Concert Hall in Tivoli, as well as through the streets of Copenhagen, and abroad on special occasions . Tivoli has its own Music school where these boys are intensively trained and prepared to continue their musical carreer when they leave at age 16.

Amagertorv on Strøget in Copenhagen Denmark. This is filmed on Copenhagen's most famous walking street called Strøget. This area is one of the popular squares found on ´Strøget and is called Amagertorv which could be translated as Amager Square. In this video watch for things like the famous Danish Pølsevogn (sausage wagon - a must to taste when visiting Copenhagen), the tower in the distance behind the Pølsevogn is Christiansborg Palace (Denmarks parliament), the fashionable and exclusive Ilum department store and the equally famous and exclusive designer brand stores Georg Jensen and Royal Copenhagen Porcelain.
The center piece of Amagertorv is the Storkespringvandet (The Stork Fountain). This fountain dates back to 1894 when it was presented to Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Louise as a gift for their Silver Wedding Anniversary. Amagertorv lies on the corner of Købmagergade and Østergade (Strøget). Amagertorv or Amager Square gets its name from the Amager farmers who would sell their produce on this square during the middle ages. This video is filmed with a Canon Powershot S3 IS Camera.
Wiki writes about Amagertorv, Amagertorv (English: Amager Square), today part of the Strøget pedestrian zone, is often described as the most central square in central Copenhagen, Denmark.Second only to Gammeltorv, it is also one of the oldest, taking its name from the Amager farmers who in the Middle Ages came into town to sell their produce at the site...
