#roundtower

#summervacay Located in the city center, the Round Tower is small and unassuming. Entry is free, but climbing to the top requires a separate ticket (60 DKK), and unfortunately, the Copenhagen Card doesn’t cover it. I was too rushed and didn’t want to pay extra, so I skipped the climb—now I really regret it! The ascent is a gentle spiral ramp, not stairs, making it very easy to climb. Inside, the design is pure white and minimalist, perfect for photos. Definitely worth the visit and the climb if you have time! #Copenhagen #Denmark #TravelDenmark #RoundTower #PhotoSpot #MinimalistDesign #CityViews #EuropeTravel

#cityplaybook #localguides #stunningview Tucked away in the peaceful countryside of County Louth, Monasterboice is one of Ireland’s most treasured early Christian monastic sites. Founded in the 5th century by Saint Buithe, a follower of Saint Patrick, this ancient monastery served as a center for religion, education, and artistry for centuries. The highlight of Monasterboice is the incredible Muiredach’s High Cross – a towering 5.5-meter sandstone cross covered in detailed biblical carvings, often considered the finest in Ireland. Nearby, the Tall Cross stands even higher at 7 meters, depicting scenes from both the Old and New Testaments. These crosses are breathtaking examples of medieval stonework and storytelling. Also on the grounds is a 28.5-meter-high round tower, built in the 10th century. It once functioned as a bell tower and a place of refuge. Though damaged by fire in 1097, it still stands proudly today. The ruins of two medieval churches also add to the site’s historical charm. Visitors can explore the peaceful graveyard, admire the ancient sundial, and take in the serene surroundings. Admission is free, and the site is open year-round, making it a perfect stop for history lovers, photographers, and anyone looking to connect with Ireland’s spiritual past. Don’t forget to bring your camera – the high crosses and stonework details are stunning in photos. Whether you’re exploring Irish heritage or simply enjoying a quiet walk among centuries-old ruins, Monasterboice offers a truly moving experience. #Monasterboice #IrelandHeritage #HighCrosses #AncientIreland #RoundTower #CountyLouth #SpiritualIreland #IrishHistory

This special tower with years of history, is a great spot to discover this city! Inside you can download the free audio guide to different stories about this tower, very amusing! Walking inside, turning around and around endlessly was yet another special experience. On top of the tower, you can see the view of this city. If you’re lucky, you may even have the chance to use the telescope 🔭 #Roundtower #copenhagen #europe #travel

Just wrapped up an unforgettable 3-day trip to Copenhagen, and I’m already dreaming of going back! Here’s a quick look at the magical spots I explored: Day 1: Colorful Beginnings in Nyhavn Started my journey with a stroll through the iconic Nyhavn – those vibrant harbor houses are straight out of a postcard! Grabbed a coffee by the canal and soaked in the vibe. Day 2: Castles, Towers & Royal Vibes Spent the day at the majestic Rosenborg Castle, then climbed to the top of the Round Tower for breathtaking city views. Every corner felt like a step back in time. Day 3: Spiritual Heights & Culture Fix Visited the stunning Church of Our Saviour – the spiral staircase is a must-do! Wrapped it up with a peaceful afternoon at a local museum diving into Danish history and art. Bonus Spots: Each place had its charm, but the real joy was in the little moments – cozy cafes, warm smiles, and that crisp Scandinavian air. Tips: • Copenhagen is walkable – wear comfy shoes! • Don’t miss the local bakeries (cardamom buns are life-changing). • The city is even more magical at sunset. Already planning my next escape! #TripMoments #CopenhagenTrip #Nyhavn #RosenborgCastle #RoundTower #TravelWithMe #EuropeAdventures #TripMoments #CopenhagenDiaries #Nyhavn #RosenborgCastle #RoundTower #ChurchOfOurSaviour #TravelWithMe #HiddenGems #EuropeExplorer #FollowForTravel

Beautiful view of the city of Copenhagen. Not too crowded and allows you to see everything in panoramic perspective. The crowd control is excellent and ensured that it was safe to climb up and down the tower. However, do note that the steps are small and steep and thus are not access friendly. There is no lift as well. #copenhagen #roundtower #panorama #scenic
