Discover the up-and-coming Nordvest neighbourhood
A culturally diverse neighbourhood off the beaten track and a place to experience an authentic and local part of Copenhagen. To get really under the skin of the architecture and urban development in this area, we highly recommend going on a guided tour by bike with beCopenhagen.
