Half of the landscape shots seemed to be from Iceland or the Faroe Islands. Yeah no, we don't have waterfalls or mountains in Denmark.

Love that country, was treated incredibly well there. My stepfather was a Dane and brought me there (1989). He taught me a lot about Danish culture, especialy open faced sandwiches (best Herring in the world) and then a snort of Akvavit, and then on to Flounder and many more courses, three hours of joy... all the way to the grapes and cheese. Hell i may have some Danish in me, they founded Dublin, lots of blue eyed Irish there. was there last month.

I went on leave twice to Copenhagen while in the U.S. Army 1960-1963 in Germany. The G.I's called the Danish girls Joy Girls, because they loved American military guy's and would pay their own way, and even let you stay in their home, show you all around the city., Tivoli Garden, Canal boat rides, Movie Theaters, anything you felt like doing! They had normal jobs, (not Prostitution) at least not to us anyway, it was never brought up. They would even write us, and send pictures after we left! Not just me, but most of my buddies had the same kind of stories when they returned from Cope.. What a beautiful experience !! If any of you "Fantastic Ladies" are reading this.."Tusind Tak!!" You made my time in the Army well worth it! Love, from an 80 yr.old Ex Scout in Minnesota

The fact about cinnamon on your 25th birthday (if unmarried) is a tradition of north Jutland - it is less used in the rest of Denmark. Also it is on your 25th birthday only.

The tradition is the same on your 30th birthday (if you are still unmarried) - but on your 30th we use ground pepper. 😊

You forgot to mention. that there is over 220 different dialects of the Danish language in Denmark alone .. I once worked with a bunch of people up north in Jylland and in a 15 min. coffee break we had two persons comparing their daily talking and found over 30 differences in their way of pronouncing words and sentences .. they lived only 25 km from each other but belonging to different 'kommune' (Blokhus og Hjørring)!!!

Finland has been nominated as the happiest country in the world for the last 6 years consecutively, including 2023. But denmark is a close in a second place.

The land of the eternal sunshine, where the joy and happiness never ends. Driving in the morning traffic through the cities you only see the brightest smiles on peoples faces, greeting each other joyfully, while singing the happiest songs. What a joy...

"Janteloven" coined in Norway by a Danish Author, in a novel, is a rather universal rule, which only we have a name for!!

I lived in Denmark when I was a boy. I went back on vacation when I was 29 yrs. Old. My parents had made a lot of friends .. For real they treated me like a king .Just like I knew them all my life. I felt like their special guest (Im not so special) They would show me all around town. So I left a part of my heart in Denmark.

What a nice video. The fact that you've taken such interest in learning about and informing others of our country is flattering. Of course it cannot be expected of you to get 100 out of 100 facts completely correct, but nothing is so far off as to be offensive or in the category of 'misinformation'. Great job!

I've visited family over in Danmark several times. I found it to be a wonderful country. Mostly friendly to tourists and travelers. Seems the environment and social structure plays well with attitude and well being in ones place and inclusion in society. No one person is better than the other. Great country to visit and soak in up Koebenhawn but get to the small towns and places in country. Some are plucked right out of a H.C. Anderson story.

I was at the bronze statue of the Little Mermaid at the North Sea coast in Copenhavn overlooking Maalmo of Sweden. - Oraculum
