Nyhavn, København
Nyhavn is the 17th century canal and waterfront area in København (Copenhagen). It is lined by brightly coloured 17th and early 18th century townhouses and nowadays by bars, cafés and restaurants. Story-teller Hans Christian Andersen lived in various houses along Nyhavn for some years. The inner section of Nyhavn is lined with old ships on both sides with the south side of the canal kept for ships owned by the Danish National Museum.
