About this experience
I invite you to explore the unique 'state' of Christiania, hidden in the heart of Copenhagen. You will stroll through its colorful streets, peek into unusual shops, and observe the most extravagant residents of the Danish capital, living an alternative lifestyle here. I will tell you about the governance system in this 'separate country' and how the local population lives. You will fully feel the free spirit of Christiania and understand why it is one of the most extraordinary places on the planet.
What to expect
A fantastic movie-like atmosphere
Christiania resembles a strange medieval village. You will see old wooden houses, a complete absence of cars, flowerbeds where flowers grow mixed with marijuana. All this creates such a picturesque picture that you won't find in any other city. Even the local authorities 'gave up' the subcultural island and granted Christiania a semi-autonomous status with the right of free residents to the honestly captured territory. You will learn the basic rules by which Christianites live, how they earn their living, and who is responsible for the state of the environment.
Walking through Christiania and architectural discoveries
Most new buildings on the territory of Christiania are unique and handmade. I will show you the most interesting places. You will see the original construction called 'House-Banana,' the 'Do-It-Yourself' shop, the 'Opera' club, the meeting place of Christianites, a kindergarten (there is a kindergarten here!), the famous restaurant 'Loppen,' and much more. You will also visit a women's forge and relax on the meadow by the lake. I will tell you some curious stories about the residents of Christiania and the decisions that have made this place safe and truly free.
Secrets of the main street
You will walk along the main street of Christiania, where the trade of light drugs almost never stops. Every passerby can purchase a joint of any strength and try it right away in one of the local open-air cafes. I will tell you how it happened that drugs are freely sold and bought just a kilometer away from the Parliament building, who these local 'dealers' are, where the products come from, and who is behind it.
Who will enjoy the tour
Christiania is a controversial and ambiguous place, but definitely worth attention if you happen to be in Copenhagen. The tour will appeal to nature lovers and fans of unusual neighborhoods, as well as to anyone looking for new experiences and sensations.
