An oasis in the city

 

In the middle of Frederiksberg is a little garden, that only the locals seems to know about. It's the garden of the Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen, also called The Romantic Garden or by its old name in Danish, Landbohøjskolens Have. Here you'll find peace and quiet, even on a summer day when all the other parks are crowded. Here it'll only be the humming of the bees and the tweeting of the birds that'll disturb you. The decorative flower bed on the pic is in commemoration of the Titanic disaster a hundred years ago.
