Ribe (Danish pronunciation: [ˈʁiːbə]; German: Ripen) is a Danish town in south-west Jutland, with a population of 8,168 (1 January 2014). It is the seat of the Diocese of Ribe covering southwestern Jutland.
Modern Esbjerg is the country's largest port and the base of Denmark's oil industry. Central sights are easily explored on foot, and buses shuttle to the Fisheries and Maritime Museum, where Denmark's fishing history is celebrated. Visitors should explore the main streets: Skolegade is crammed with bars, and pedestrian-only Kongensgade bustles with 150 shops and restaurants. Home to the original Legoland, this city of 85,000 also offers fun daytrips to picturesque Fano, 12 minutes away by ferry.
