The Little Mermaid (Den lille Havfrue) and Kastellet in Copenhagen. Whimsical Travelers Vlog 11
We took Uber to the famous Little Mermaid statue and then walked back toward the center of the city. Then we walked across Kastellet, a 17th century military fort (which is still in use), before heading back to our Airbnb.
We came across Amalienborg on the way back, the home of the Danish royal family. Sheri really wanted to speak to the guards, but I convinced her it wasn't a great idea.

Kopenhaga, Nyhavn i pomnik małej syrenki oraz inne widoki z miasta z naszego pobytu w Kopenhadze. Zdjęcia z pochmurnego i chłodnego, niestety, dnia 14 czerwca 2012. København - Nyhavn (et havnekvarter i København, som er et af byens mest besøgte turistmål.) og Den lille Havfrue (en skulptur på Langelinie i København). Fotograferet den 14. juni 2012.
Nyhavn (Danish pronunciation: [ˈnyhɑwˀn]; New Harbor) is a 17th-century waterfront, canal and entertainment district in Copenhagen, Denmark. Stretching from Kongens Nytorv to the harbour front just south of the Royal Playhouse, it is lined by brightly coloured 17th and early 18th century townhouses and bars, cafes and restaurants. The canal harbours many historical wooden ships.
Nyhavn (dosłownie: Nowy Port) – kanał i ulica w centrum Kopenhagi, położona między Kongens Nytorv a przystanią. Fasady domów pomalowane są charakterystycznymi jaskrawymi kolorami. Ulica jest atrakcją turystyczną, ponadto znajduje się tu przystań turystyczna. Nyhavn er et havnekvarter i København, som er et af byens mest besøgte turistmål. Havnen blev udgravet fra 1671 til 1673 af svenske krigsfanger fra den Anden Karl Gustav-krig som et alternativ til den eksisterende havn. Nyhavnskanalen blev indviet af Christian 5. i 1670'erne, men i dag hedder det bare Nyhavn. Seværdige er de over 300 år gamle huse. Det ældste hus er Nyhavn nr. 9 fra 1681. I dag er Nyhavn dækket med fortovscafeer og restauranter. Den lille havfrue er en skulptur på Langelinie i København, der byder rejsende velkommen i Københavns Havn og er en af Danmarks største turistattraktioner. Den skal illustrere H.C. Andersens eventyr Den lille Havfrue. Skulpturen var en gave til København, skænket af brygger Carl Jacobsen og udført af billedhuggeren Edvard Eriksen. Som model til skulpturen brugte Edvard Eriksen sin kone, Eline Eriksen. Statuen blev opstillet permanent på Langelinie den 23. august 1913.
The Little Mermaid (Danish: Den lille Havfrue) is a bronze statue by Edvard Eriksen, depicting a mermaid. The sculpture is displayed on a rock by the waterside at the Langelinie promenade in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is 1.25 meters (4.1 ft) tall and weighs 175 kilograms (385 lb).
Based on the fairy tale of the same name by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen, the small and unimposing statue is a Copenhagen icon and has been a major tourist attraction since its unveiling in 1913. In recent decades it has become a popular target for defacement by vandals and political activists. Mermaid is among iconic statues that symbolize cities; others include: Manneken Pis in Brussels, the Statue of Liberty in New York and Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro.
Mała Syrenka (duń. Den Lille Havfrue) – posąg przedstawiający postać z baśni Mała Syrena autorstwa Hansa Christiana Andersena (będącą pół kobietą, pół rybą), znajdujący się w porcie w Kopenhadze. Pomnik ma 1,25 m wysokości i waży około 175 kg. Rzeźba została zamówiona i ufundowana w 1909 roku przez syna założyciela browaru Carlsberg - Carla Jacobsena, którego zafascynowała historia przedstawiona w balecie Mała Syrenka. Pomnik wykonał duński rzeźbiarz Edvard Eriksen i 23 sierpnia 1913 został odsłonięty. Modelką dla Eriksena była jego późniejsza żona - tancerka Ellen Price.

Copenhagen, Denmark - The Little Mermaid (2018)
The Little Mermaid (Danish: Den lille Havfrue) is a bronze statue by Edvard Eriksen, depicting a mermaid. The sculpture is displayed on a rock by the waterside at the Langelinie promenade in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is 1.25 metres (4.1 ft) tall and weighs 175 kilograms (385 lb).
Based on the fairy tale of the same name by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen, the small and unimposing statue is a Copenhagen icon and has been a major tourist attraction since its unveiling in 1913. In recent decades it has become a popular target for defacement by vandals and political activists.
Mermaid is among iconic statues that symbolize cities; others include: Manneken Pis in Brussels, the Statue of Liberty in New York and Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro. In several cases, cities have commissioned statues for such a purpose, such as with Singapore's Merlion.
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.

The statue of The Little Mermaid (Danish: Den lille havfrue) sits on a rock in the harbour of the capital of Denmark. Based on a tale by Hans Christian Andersen, the small and unimposing statue is a Copenhagen icon and a major tourist attraction.
The statue was commissioned in 1909 by Carl Jacobsen, son of the founder of Carlsberg, who had been fascinated by a ballet about the fairytale in Copenhagen's Royal Theatre and asked the primaballerina, Ellen Price, to model for the statue. The sculptor Edvard Eriksen created the bronze statue, which was unveiled on 23 August 1913.
