I am sure Scandinavia has nice museums and palaces but I just can't think of anything that they have that other places in Europe don't have in an abundance too. That's all I am saying. And I am sure Copenhagen has a different feel to it than Berlin due to its percentages of people but like are you going to walk around staring at people all day?
copenhagen is totally different to berlin in culture, in architecture, in the pace and style of living. copenhagen is a fairytale city, incredibly sanitised and everything artisanal and perfected; berlin is an ex-industrial city, a permanent building site, a melting pot full of turkish immigrants and squatter communities.
it’s like saying you can’t see the difference between boulder, CO and baltimore. you really need to see some more of the world.
museums and art galleries are near the bottom of my list of attractions in scandinavia. that low population density you keep talking about? scandinavia has some of the greatest wilds and natural beauties of anywhere in europe. driving down the coastal roads of norway and looking at fishing villages perched in fjords, with sublime views, is not something you can get in the channel coast near belgium or even in spain or southern france. it has a beauty all of its own. the northern lights? the arctic circle? hello?
