Our neighbor, Denmark, was once a great Viking nation but is now a modern country that attracts the world with its playfulness, long coastline, rich food culture, and popular design. Denmark’s nature is varied and rich, with lakes, cliffs, sand dunes, beautiful beaches, and open coastlines.
Denmark attracts those who want to bike, hike, surf, golf, or just enjoy city life. In total, there are over 200 golf courses—and the country has just over 5 million inhabitants!
