This district with an impressive history is especially nice for those who love culture and chic shopping.
As a lover of culture and architecture, this is the place to be. Slotsholmen is Denmark's political centre and in the Øster Kvarter district, the wealth of the city is echoed in the imposing buildings and colourful canals. Many activities take place around the parliament building, sometimes with a political theme or with a more cultural touch. Here you will find several special museums and other cultural institutions. The focal point of Øster Kvarter is the large square where chic department stores, hotels and the royal theatre are located. Here you will also find the recognisable and touristy Nyhavn, with its coloured houses along the water.
