Random Checking Copenhagen : Vesterbro

Well, I am pretty sure that this is going to be a boring post. It is just Copenhagen and Copenhagen. I promise Thou, several weeks later I will show you more interesting places outside Copenhagen =P, now please just bear with these. Enjoy yourselves, folks.

The obelisk without Asterix *crunchy X(*

This obelisk rising is named Frihedstotten (The Pillar to Freedom), this located in front of the Copenhagen central station.

Hard Rock Cafe near the Copenhagen Central Station

The Great Wall with the awful grafitti =p

Built in 1887, this is the wall that once protected the citizens from the bullets being fired at the royal shooting range (Skydebane). Through the wall via the iron-gate, there’s a large playground called Skydebane Heaven (long time ago it was the area of the old shooting range).

Random building around the street =p

Kobenhavens Museum

This museum is located on Absalonsgade, also nicknamed “the museum street” due to the stretch of the street at the Vesterbrogade-end where historical city-inventory is on “live” display. The street is connected to the Copenhagen City Museum just around the corner on Vesterbrogade.

Us!

The temperature afterwards went down quickly (it was about 1 C), and I felt super duper chilly. As the strong wind blew away (it could reach -10 C), my hands were already numb, and both of my eyes and skinface were in pain. Then we finished our weekly outing and went home =p.

By the way, these pics below are really worth to be looking at (I suppose so =p).

HC Andersen Statue, cheer up buddy!

This forlorn guy is Hans Christian Andersen, one of the greatest storytellers ever. He has a painful past back then in his childhood era (I will tell about it later in my next post perhaps =p). No wonder, he created various tragic endings in almost of his writings. And one important thing, he is gay, and never touch woman for the rest of his life XD.

Yellowish Houses, NIIICE!

Naval Complex!

Naval complex is slightly unique compare to other places in Copenhagen (I think). You can easily smell fish and meat once you walk down to this street. Unlike the other buildings with baroque, renaissance or gothic style which scattered all over Copenhagen, this complex is less sophisticated yet tranquil and looks more appealing to me.

For Thou who are waiting for me to post my experience to Museum Erotica (you, yeah!), don’t worry I will post it sooner or later *evil grin*.
