Denmark's Geranium, the world's number one three-Michelin-star restaurant

Half of the Michelin stars in the world ranking belong to Denmark. Geranium was ranked the world's number one three-Michelin-star restaurant in 2022. We booked Geranium two months in advance. Compared to Noma, I prefer Geranium more. The restaurant has a strong environmental philosophy, which I really like. They consistently insist on organic ingredients 🍃 and everyone strictly follows this. I have a good impression of Copenhagen. From the moment I got off the plane, I encountered warm-hearted Danes. Geranium doesn't have much of a so-called dress code. This is very Nordic—come as you feel comfortable. The taste isn’t particularly special, but among all the fine dining I’ve experienced, this was the first time I finished every dish over more than four hours, including the four desserts at the end. The restaurant founder insists on pescatarianism, so even though the meal lasted over four hours, it didn’t feel overly filling. Chef Gao is the only Chinese chef at the restaurant. Thanks to Chef Gao for showing us around the kitchen and wine cellar. By the way, the restaurant offers a direct view of the Danish football stadium, so you can enjoy your meal while watching the game. Finally, the juice pairing 🍹 is highly recommended and can be considered a Geranium specialty.

Copenhagen Classic One-Day Itinerary: Stepping into the Colors and Fun of a Danish Fairytale A trip to Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is filled with a strong Nordic atmosphere, from the colorful fairytale cottages along the Nyhavn canal to the Little Mermaid statue, ancient castles and palaces, and Tivoli Gardens, the world's oldest amusement park. This time, holding a postcard featuring the Royal Guard and the Danish flag, stroll along the Western-style buildings and canals bathed in the sunlight, instantly transporting you to the dreamland of Hans Christian Andersen. Whether you're an architecture enthusiast, a fairytale lover, or simply enjoy strolling through European gardens, this route is guaranteed to captivate you! Copenhagen Attractions Recommendation 1. Nyhavn This ancient shipping port, with over 300 years of history, boasts colorful wooden houses, small boats moored in the canals, and the former residence where Hans Christian Andersen wrote. It's highly recommended to relax at a riverside café at dusk, order a latte, and enjoy the European sunset. Remember to bring your camera! This is an Instagram-worthy spot! 2. Tivoli Gardens: One of the world's oldest theme parks, entering feels like stepping into a fairytale. From the charming carousel and roller coasters to the fireworks show, the park is a magical sight at night! Perfect for couples or groups of friends. 3. The Little Mermaid: A must-see landmark in Copenhagen. The Little Mermaid sits on a sea rock, gazing into the distance, a picture of gentle beauty and poetry. It's recommended to visit in the morning when there are fewer crowds, making it easier to capture stunning still photos. 4. Amalienborg Palace: The residence of the Danish Royal Family, its exterior is magnificent and elegant. The most interesting part is the daily Changing of the Guard ceremony at 11:30 am – incredibly ceremonial and truly spectacular to witness! 5. Rosenborg Castle: A Renaissance-style castle nestled in the heart of a garden, housing treasures such as the royal crown and scepter. In spring, the gardens are ablaze with cherry blossoms, making for a perfect backdrop for friends' photoshoots. 6. The Round Tower: A unique spiral ramp leads to the top, offering panoramic views of Copenhagen's Old Town. Tip: The ramp is long, so sneakers are recommended! 7. Christiansborg Palace: A blend of royal palace, history, and the political center of Denmark. The main building is open to the public, and you can also climb the tower for city views. 8. Frederik's Church: The marble dome is spectacular, and the interior features stunning ceiling frescoes. It's recommended to visit after Amalienborg Palace. 9. Gefion Fountain: A fountain themed around Norse mythology, located near the sea and featuring a Little Mermaid statue. Suitable for those who love Norse mythology and art. 10. Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek: With a collection ranging from ancient Egyptian masterpieces to Impressionist works, and a breathtaking glass-roofed atrium, it's a perfect spot for both exhibitions and photos. 11. Strøget: Europe's longest pedestrian street, offering everything from international brands to unique Danish shops. Weekend street performers create a lively atmosphere, making it a must-visit for souvenirs. Practical Travel Tips: 1. Many attractions in Copenhagen are within walking distance of each other, making a leisurely day trip more than enough. Comfortable sneakers are essential, and remember to bring a windbreaker for the slightly chilly Scandinavian weather. 2. The Nyhavn sunset and Tivoli night view in Copenhagen are both highly recommended. The "Copenhagen Card" is a convenient and cost-effective way to use it for transportation and attractions. 3. Must-try food: Smørrebrød (Danish open-faced sandwiches). Aamanns 1921 restaurant is highly recommended; their city center branch is easily accessible. 4. Some attractions (such as Rosenberg Castle) offer baggage storage; taking postcards along adds to the experience. Transportation Guide: From Boracay, it's recommended to transfer at Copenhagen International Airport, then take the metro/bus for about 15 minutes to reach the city center.
