Skagen

Skagen is a Danish town located in the North Jutland region on the northernmost tip of the island of Vendsyssel-Thy. It is part of the municipality of Frederikshavn. In the vicinity of Skagen, frequented by tourists, there is Grenen, a strip of sand that extends to the north-east at the point where the two seas Skagerrak and Kattegat meet, generating turbulence that makes navigation difficult. For this reason, special signs sanction the ban on bathing. It is often possible to witness the characteristic clash of waves coming from opposite directions. The old Vippefyr lighthouse, was built in the fifteenth century and later destroyed. There is a reconstruction north of the city. In the seventeenth century it was replaced by the Hvidefyr (white lighthouse). In turn replaced by the taller Gråfyr (grey lighthouse) of 1850, still present. To the south of the city there is the Tilsandende Kirke, a church buried by the sand. Currently visible and visitable is only the bell tower. Further attractions are represented by the numerous museums and art galleries. Among the museums, we point out the Skagens Museum which exhibits the major works of the Skagen painters.

Copenaghen

Copenhagen, literally "port of the merchants", is the capital of Denmark and one of the country's most densely populated cities. Originally a city mainly inhabited by fishermen, it became a fundamentally important port for trade.
Copenhagen is a year-round tourist destination and in summer the flow of tourists increases considerably thanks to Northern Europe cruises.

It is very common to add a stay in the city before a cruise, to take in its distinguishing relaxing atmosphere and see what it has to offer. Among its famous attractions you cannot miss the statue of the Mermaid which is located right at the entrance to the port and the Tivoli Gardens, one of the world's largest amusement parks, opened in 1843 and loved by everyone.

Copenhagen (København in Danish and 'Copenaga' in Italian [no source]) is the capital and the most populous city of Denmark with 518,574 inhabitants in the municipality (1,167,569 in the urban area). The city stretches across the islands of Sjælland and Amager and is separated from the city of Malmö in Sweden by the strait of Øresund.
