Nyhavn in Copenhagen
Nyhavn means “new harbour” or “new port” in Danish, but is quite old – it was built in the second half of 17th century. Originally Nyhavn was a port and marketplace, but in these days it serves tourism and recreation; Nyhavn is the main departure point of Copenhagen Canal and Harbour Tours. Besides its coloured houses and boats being probably the most typical picture of Copenhagen, Nyhavn is one of the best restaurant and entertainment areas in Copenhagen.
