COPENHAGEN: Amalienborg

Amalienborg is an 18th Century rococo complex of palaces. Denmark’s royal family, one of the world’s oldest monarchies, still resides here.

Denmark is a kingdom, and Amalienborg is the royal family’s residence

At the palace square, you can watch the changing of the guard at noon.
