In the 18th century the capital of Denmark was totally destroyed by the fire, in 1807 it was again burnt by the British, that's why in Copenhagen there is practically no historical center with its narrow streets. But nevertheless, there are a lot of attractive sights there: marvelous palaces, plenty of museums and galleries, lively well-planned amusement parks, one of the longest market streets in the world and cozy districts with bars, restaurant and cafes with open terraces.
