Park


It's so hard to get a decent picture of this place... it's a kind of park (not the playground type) which sits in front of a really old building, now used by the danish council or whatever. The building is important, because some old Danish king supposedly died in it. I don't have the name of the building, so I can't find anymore information on it just yet.

Anyway, this park is so hard to take a picture of... no matter what angle you take it from. There's a million objects in the way so you can't take a clear photo of the entire place. Maybe I'll go back and take pictures from the four corners (it's square) so you can get a better idea. I has two statues, one of a man on a horse and a huge line of bikes all along the left side. There are dozens of beautiful old trees places around the park, where people go to picnic or just relax under in the shade (or they even lie out in the sun on the grass). The path, as you can see in the picture, goes from the bottom left corner to the top right in a diagonal... more or less straight line. People cross there to reach the train station and stuff, or if they're going in the opposite way, they could be going to the theatre, the ballet school or a little bit further into the town center.

It's so nice to stroll through on a sunny day. During Christmas time (shit, I should have taken a picture of it!) every night, they lit over a hundred candles stuck in the ground and let them burn all throughout December. And during the summer, there's always music festivals, fairs and all sorts of fun stuff going on there. It's so nice! I'll have to go back and take more pictures.

    This looks so familiar but I can't remeber exactly where it is in the city. This isn't the park across the street from the train station is it? If it is, then my old school is on one side of the park - and I used to have lunch there with my classmates on a nice day.
