Carlsberg and Tivoli Gardens

Monday evening was spent at the Carlsberg museum and then the Tivoli Gardens. The Carlsberg museum was awesome and we are so glad we went! The museum is located in the original brewery and is very informative. We learnt so much about the science of beer making, the founders and all the science and research the Carlsberg Foundation has done. Big takeaway is they donate a lot of their profit to research, art and charity so we both decided we would start drinking their beer. A free pint was even included in our entrance!

The Tivoli Gardens is very popular in Copenhagen and is the world’s second oldest theme park (1843). It was pretty busy for a Monday night but the atmosphere was so enjoyable. We felt like we were in one of those fairs the couples go on dates at in the movies. Everything was lit up and it was very cool being there during Halloween as everything was decorated and we even got to see the largest pumpkin contest on display. We went into a walk through haunted house together and got very scared but laughed a lot. We played Galoppen, ate snacks, watched a light show and Iesha went on 2 rollercoasters (Ethan chickened out). One of the rollercoasters was built in 1914 is one of the oldest in the world and is still operated manually by a person who just stands on it which was pretty funny.Read more
