Ohhhh wow!! You’re back!! Good to see you’re still alive. Hope your new role as a 2-kid mom becomes you well. What a cute little nugget you got there. 🥰 Hope you’re all doing well?!? Cool video. You have a good eye for the quirky, huh? 😉
Hi Erin! Wanted to say thank you so much for your channel. I just got back from Copenhagen and based a lot of my itinerary on your videos. I didn’t even need a tour guide because of all the great historical facts you include. Congratulations on the darling new addition to the family 🎉
Some extra info about the bottle: Not only did it have an elevator, it was the country's first elevator, and allegedly caused quite a stir amongst the people who tried it. While it would be hard to see now, the bottle was actually placed at its current location due to that being the old grounds of the Tuborg brewery (which was still in operation when the bottle was placed there), and the last buildings of the Tuborg industrial area were only demolished in the mid-2000's. There is indeed a school nearby! The grey/metallic building right next to the playground is Hellerup Skole, which was initially viewed with much suspicion due to using some, at the time (2000's), quite revolutionary ideas of teaching, such as not having any classrooms, but instead featuring wide open spaces for kids to use as they see fit, and with a teaching style based around prioritizing the individual's freedom to learn as they please. It has also won several architecture awards, and received worldwide attention for its radically different style of both design and teaching, for example being the subject of a Saudi-Arabian documentary in the early 2000's. The area has been developed more, but during my time there as a student (2006-2016), the area was still mostly construction sites and empty lots, so it's pretty weird going back now and seeing it so full of buildings.
This dane didn't know ANY of the things, you just showed us!! :D Have you seen the canon ball in the wall, at Øster Voldgade? There is more around the city though ...
Don't forget the Genetically Modified Little Mermaid sculpture in Dahlerup Square, a short walk from The Little Mermaid sculpture everyone goes to see.
