The Monocle Travel Guide, Copenhagen

The rumours are true: Denmark’s capital really is filled with design-savvy people with chic homes who are only a quick pedal from some of the world’s finest restaurants and creative retail shops.

So saddle up: the Monocle Travel Guide to Copenhagen is on hand to take you for a ride through the city's many and varied delights.
