Tivoli Gardens
If you are ever in Copenhagen, please take the opportunity to visit Tivoli Gardens; I heartily recommend it. It's a little pricey but Denmark generally is for visitors.

The park has a real charm to it which I have not found anywhere else and there is an other-worldly sense to it when you step off a busy city pavement into, what feels like, a space miles away.

There aren't masses of Nemesis-style rollercoasters but there are enough to keep up with modern tastes. I'm not big into these though so I'm probably not the best to judge. There was a rickety, old, wooden big dipper which was great to go on.

A lot of original features from the 19th Century remain throughout the gardens and buildings. There was an aquarium and commedia dell'arte (not the original cast though).

Food! The choice to eat is beyond anything you'd see in the UK. Fast food was to hand but that was the tip of the iceberg. It's the first theme park I'd seen with Michelin standard fare available.

If you are with your significant other, stay until evening when the sunsets and the park transforms with fairy lights appearing (tastefully, honest). You can whisk them off for a grope by one of the lakes as the firework show reflects off the surface.

All this whilst throwing endless pints of lager down my throat.
Best wedding anniversary ever.
