The squares in Copenhagen reflect pretty well the overall mirthful atmosphere of this city. They are crowded but not stressed even in the leisure hours, mainly in the summer. I wrote more about my personal imperssions on Copenhagen in my previous article on its streets.

Amalienborg is the square with Danish Royal palace, where the exchange of guards is held every hour or so. It is a pedestrian zone.

Gammeltorv is right in the historical center of the city surrounded by classical-style buildings. Stroget, the longest pedestrian zone in Copenhagen, is constituting its W-E axis and the whole square is a pedestrian zone.

And Radhuspladsen is perhaps the biggest square in the city. Although a pedestrian zone, it is surrounded by busy streets with umlimited traffic.

These pictures were also taken on the first Saturday of July 2004. On that day, I experienced all kind of weather – rainy morning, cloudy midday and quite sunny afternoon. So enjoy them!
