Introduction

Tivoli Gardens sits by Copenhagen Central Station, opened in 1843 as one of the world's oldest amusement parks and an inspiration for Disney's castle. A Chinese pagoda, lake-stage and dazzling night lights create romantic exoticism; roller coasters, carousels and gardens coexist, with concerts and Chinese-theatre shows through the seasons. At lamp-lighting the whole garden turns dreamlike — Copenhagen's all-ages happy heart and an unmissable stop.
