A funpark located in the very middle of
Copenhagen - just on the opposite side of the central station. Entrance is about 40
DKK. Since there are a lot of parks and odd looking buildings, it's a very nice place to go just for a walk. Word of advice: Don't even think about buying food on the
restaurants in there.
Tivoli was founded as a
garden in
1843 and featured concerts ea. in the
theatre (built in
1874) and lots of exhibitions throughout the 19th and 20th
century. In
1914 the fun park twist began when a
bang-the-knot-with-a-big-hammer-and-make-the-bell-ring was put in the garden.
Bumper cars were added in
1926, and since then a
rollercoaster, all sort of spinning things,
boats, a
concert hall and plenty of restaurants have been added.
To use the activities, additional
tickets must be bought (a tour-pass giving you
unlimited access is almost 200 DKK) - concerts (both indoor and outdoor ones) are some times for free, some times very expensive.
