Frederiksberg is sort of a city within a city—though completely surrounded by Copenhagen, it’s technically its own municipality. It’s teeming with gourmet specialty shops, upscale shopping and charming cafés. But it’s also steeped in history and culture. An enormous park features romantic gardens, a Chinese pavilion, Greek-style temple and labyrinth. Take tour of the masterful baroque Frederiksberg Palace and enjoy the delicate exhibits of the Museum of Modern Glass Art.

I decided to visit Zenzes on my birthday - I had been really stressed out due to a high workload and was really feeling tension in my entire body. I chose the Relaxation Redefined massage with Ivan and added an additional 30 minutes plus facial massage. I’ve been to many different spas and wellness centres in search of the perfect relaxation, and I can honestly say that this was the best massage I’ve ever had. Ivan isn’t just a skilled masseur, he really understands how the body works. The surroundings and music really added to the experience, and I left Zenzes a really happy lady. I will definitely be back.

I visited there in the last Fall. It was a stunning and cozy experience. I love the place. Such a lovely and romantic place. Worth for spending 2 hours. And nearby, we visited the palace too. I will go there in the next summer too.

The is like a small botanical garden of the University of Copenhagen. The is also a small café there and a small pond with ducks. It is free and worth a visit all year round.

Historically a castle but operating as a museum. Grandeur and decadence of the ballroom is awe inspiring. You can easily spend a day here enjoying the collection. Castle grounds give off the fairy tale feeling. Getting to Frederiksberg is fairly easy trip from Copenhagen by public transit.

The Cisterns in Søndermarken ParkResting deep beneath the green lawns of Søndermarken Park is a cavernous world that never sees the light of day. Enveloped in darkness, these damp and cold surroundings call ancient cathedrals and murky catacombs instantly to mind. History of The Cisterns The Cisterns, a long forgotten subterranean reservoir, once contained the supply of drinking water for the Danish capital and could hold as much as 16 million liters of clean water. Excavation began in 1856. Taking only three years to complete, the great structure quickly helped to alleviate many of the water supply problems of the day; but by 1933, the city’s cisterns ceased their function as a reservoir for drinking water, and they were finally drained in 1981. In 1996, in connection with Copenhagen’s status as European City of Culture – and through a joint initiative between the City of Frederiksberg and gallery owner Max Seidenfaden, who ran The Cisterns as a museum of modern glass art from 2001 to 2013– the underground water reservoir was put to use as an exhibition space. Today, The Cisterns is an integral part of Frederiksberg Museums, acting as a venue for art exhibitions and other events where the singularity of its architecture and atmosphere remains a core attraction. The Cisterns: A Cave within a CityLocated under Frederiksberg Hill in the heart of Søndermarken Park, The Cisterns is the only dripstone cave in Denmark. The natural formation of stalactites and stalagmites are not uncommon for concrete structures, yet none anywhere can offer the sheer magnitude and diversity of those found here. Such geological formations are extremely fragile, so for the sake of the museum as well as future guests we kindly request that you refrain from touching them. Thank you. Andante Christian Lemmerz at The CisternsIn a unique concoction of granite, concrete pillars and delicate stalactites and stalagmites, the subterranean exhibition space under Søndermarken Park is breathtaking. Of course, not every artist can meet the challenges proposed by these surroundings, but internationally renowned Danish artist Christian Lemmerz is certainly one who can! Lemmerz’ site-specific work, Andante, emerges as a monumental living sculpture, like a sea of candles, to illuminate and stage the sheer drama of this dark and cavernous space.

Once you pay the fare you head down into the cistern and you change out your shoes into a pair of Wellies/Rainboots, be sure to bring or wear a pair of socks. It was an interesting experience. Very atmospheric. We went during the art exhibition “It Is Not The End of The World”. The ominous music, underground/industrial/cave-like environment, and the words illuminated in blue lighting created an eerie feel—it was definitely a mood. The further I walked away from the illumination of the art display, I would liken the experience to a sensory deprivation pod, or if you could walk in a sensory deprivation pod. I didn’t walk to far out as I had often felt anxious the further out I walked near total darkness and unsure how deep the water would be with each step. Needless to say, I’m a scaredy cat, And regret I didn’t walk further out.
