Rick Steves' Europe
Denmark Beyond Copenhagen
Season 5
Episode 511
Using Copenhagen as a springboard, we’ll visit the best of Denmark. Aarhus welcomes us with its affluence, open-air museum, and preserved ancient bog man. Roskilde impresses visitors with its royal burial church and the best Viking ship museum anywhere. And the quaint Isle of Aerø comes with half-timbered cottages, ships in bottles, and cobbled alleyways that remind us of Hans Christian Andersen.
