Your flight to vibrant and historical Aarhus takes you to Denmark’s second-largest city with traces of life dating from 900 AD. See the ARoS Kunstmuseum for Danish art, and the modern Aarhus Town Hall, designed by Arne Jacobsen.
Step back in time at The Old Town, an open-air museum in Aarhus with 75 restored Danish buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries. Mix with the locals of Aarhus in Vadestedet, an area full of restaurants and bars.
Take a day trip to Tivoli Friheden for family thrills or quiet time in its gardens (2km south of Aarhus centre) or to the Deer Park, where wild boar roam too. Or explore the bathing beaches from Norsminde Fjord to the south, up to Studstrup to the north.
Locals in Aarhus like traditional food. Try a hearty øllebrød (made of rye bread, sugar and non-alcoholic beer) with gule ærter (split-pea soup). Wash it all down with Jutland stout beers. |
