Your flight to beautiful and lively Aalborg brings you to Denmark’s fourth-largest city, founded by the Vikings more than 1,000 years ago. See the old Castle and the breathtaking view of Aalborg and the North Jutland landscape from the Aalborg Tower.
Explore times gone by at the Aalborg Historical Museum where archaeological pieces, silverware and glass illustrate local history. Mix with the locals in the pedestrianised centre, or along the famous Jomfru Ane Gade, a huge street that comes alive at night.
For some quiet time out explore the waters of the Lim Fjord or brave a day of thrills at Tivoliland, a huge entertainment park. Or trek Denmark's largest forest, Rold, where robber bandits once roamed, just outside town.
The people of Aalborg love their Smørrebrød (open sandwiches). Try one with buttered rye bread and curried herring. Choose an Aalborg Akvavit to match, but beware, it is usually 45 per cent alcohol by volume. |
