Denmark is a Nordic country in northern Europe, made up of the Jutland peninsula and hundreds of islands between the North and Baltic Seas.
Low-lying and heavily indented by coastline, Denmark shares its only land border with Germany and is linked to Sweden by the Øresund Bridge. Viking history, Hans Christian Andersen and modern design shape its image. Travellers head to Copenhagen for Tivoli Gardens and Nyhavn, to Roskilde for its excavated Viking ships, and to Billund for Legoland.
