Leave the bustling city behind and travel through north Zealand to Hillerød and the majestic Frederiksborg Castle. Constructed in Renaissance style and situated on three tiny islands amid beautiful gardens and a lake, it’s both captivating and iconic.

Cross the courtyard and admire the imposing Neptune fountain before the spectacular interior takes your breath away. Marvel at the magnificent collection of art and furniture in the restored state rooms and be sure to take in the Chapel and Audience Chamber – both of which are sumptuously decorated.

Shakespeare knew his stuff! Renaissance-era Kronborg Castle, the setting for Hamlet, is atmospheric and commanding. Immerse yourself in history as you stroll along the ramparts and photograph the stunning views before enjoying coffee and delicious pastries in the cultural shipyard just across from the castle.
