Overgaden oven Vandet

"Freetown, or its proper name Christiana, is quite a legendary area in Copenhagen. Some say it’s dangerous, but it’s certainly worth a visit. A lot of the structures in Freetown are makeshift, with colorful graffiti and artworks plastered almost everywhere. But if you’re looking to enjoy the area, there are galleries, organic eateries and beautiful natural sights here to check out."
