I am goig to talk about a beautifull country that I very like and where I spent my summer holidays few years ago. This country is Denmark.
The country of Denmark is composed of a peninsula called Jylland located at the north of Germany and fourhundred islands. Eigthy-two of them are inhabited. Zealand and Funen are the biggest. The language spoken there is the Danish and the national currency is the Danish krone.
The capital and biggest city of Denmark is Copenhagen, which is located on Zealand,you can find there the most famous monuments of Denmark. The little mermaid, for example, is the most visited monument of the town. By the way, she no longer wears her original head but a new one, because someone decapitated her and stole her head in 1964. The Amalienborg palace is a beautyful example of european architecture of the 18th century. Of course, you can find numerous museums However, the best known place is probably the Tivoli Gardens. It is the very first amusement park of the world and also a wonderful botanic garden. Despite its age it is still very attractive for young and old because continously new thrill rides have been added to the old ones.
From the 8th to the 10th century the Danes were known as Vikings.
Denmark is a constitutional monarchy actually governed by queen Margrethe II. She was crowned the 14 January 1972.
Denmark is member of the European Union since 1973 (initially the European Economic Community).
Besides tourism, Denmark's economy includes agriculture and small-scale industry, such as breweries. The best known beer brand is perhaps Carlsberg.
Although infrastructure and public transport is well developped, the bicycle is the king of Denmark. Everywhere you can find cycle lanes and the Danes use them to such and extend that there are more traffic jams on them than on the roads.
If you don’t know where to go on holiday, I advise you to go there and visit for example the Tivoli Garden, that I found beautifull and entertaining.
