Copenhaven - Stoget Copenhagen taken in 2012.
The pedestrian street "Strøget" is a maze of several walking streets that runs from east - the Town Hall Square - to west - the Kings Square (Nytorv) and to Nyhavn. This pedestrian walking street - passes trough the central parts of the city as well as the old medieval city and Latin Quarters - and is connected to many large historical squares.
The busy - Frederiksberggade in 1929 - and long before it was turned into the longest pedestrian in the world - established as "Strøget" in 1962. Source
What a great place to go to "people watch." I do love the bustling street scenes...both now and then.

Beautiful! Such a clean and lovely country. We were there back in the 70's and I wish we could have made a return trip.

ReplyDeleteA lovely selection of scenes.
ReplyDeleteI now feel like I've been to Copenhagen ... and i want to go back. Beautiful. We were in Prague several years ago - it's full of interesting squares too.
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous buildings and brilliant blue skies. It must have been a cold day though - lots of people wearing scarves and jackets.
ReplyDeleteI love vicarious travel. This looks wonderful--and what a great comparison with the old picture!
ReplyDeleteI love the before and after shot.

ReplyDeleteLove the active folks walking through the streets....glad you included the 1929 photo♫
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be "people watching" from a sidewalk cafe there -- very nice
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to go to Denmark ... ever since I was a little girl and watched the old movie about Hans Christian Andersen. Don't you just love the European tradition of strolling and sitting outside to have a drink and people watch?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect trip.
