From here, cross the King's New Square, where the Royal Theatre is located, and ride past the King´s Garden, the lush green park adjacent to Rosenborg Castle, an elegant Renaissance castle dating from the 17th century.
Christiansborg Castle, Old Stock Exchange, City Hall, Market Halls, and Danish Specialities
Your route proceeds past Christiansborg Castle, houses the Danish Parliament and is located next to the Old Stock Exchange. From here, ride past City Hall en route to the newly-opened Market Halls. A stop is made here for a tasting of Scandinavian and Danish specialities. Afterward, commence the short ride back to the pier, passing the historic, yellow-painted houses of Nyboder en route.
