Why Copenhagen Botanical Garden matters

Just a few minutes from the busiest streets, the Botanical Garden is a quiet green space with winding paths, ponds, and a big domed palm house full of tropical plants. Locals come here to read and picnic. It is a good place to slow the pace and combine with a visit to nearby Rosenborg Castle.

Talking points

  • The Palm House is a Victorian-style glasshouse of tropical plants.
  • The garden is free to enter, with free access to the grounds.
  • It is a short walk from Rosenborg Castle.
