Visit Copenhagen
Sightseeing
At the main entrance, visitors are officially received by Frederik VI, a former king much beloved by his people, so one is fully aware of entering his garden.
In the waters of the beautiful garden he used to be rowed about on the canals saluting the people. The statue's pedestal has the following inscription: 'Here he felt happy in the midst of loyal people'.
Today, Svendsen's Boat Service (Svendsens Bådfart) will do the rowing for you. Boat tours operate all summer. The boat tour will give you a good idea of the vastness of the gardens.
On the tour you will see the Frederiksberg Palace, towering on a hill top, many lovely little bridges, and the Chinese Pavilion that was erected in 1799 as a Royal teahouse.
For centuries, the Frederiksberg Gardens has been a favourite outing spot for Copenhageners. Many bring their picnic baskets for lunch and top off the day by visiting the Copenhagen Zoo in the northernmost end of the gardens.

The beautiful restaurant is located a bit off the hustle of the inner City in the cosy old quarter of Nyboder - the 400 years old housing blocks build for the navy.
Kokkeriet's interior design is charming, and the atmosphere is personal and more relaxed than at other of the city's gourmet restaurants. The menu is modern European, flavoured with Danish finesse and old traditions.
The fare of the season is in focus. As a new feature, it is possible to choose a 3, 5, or 7 course menu. The price range is lower than at other gourmet restaurants.
