One of the main reasons I wanted to go to Denmark was because of Hans Christian Andersen. My favourite of his fairy tales is Thumbelina, with The Little Mermaid coming in a close second. Naturally we had to visit his statue, the place he lived, and The Little Mermaid statue. I dragged my brother along - we walked from our hotel which was right by Tivoli Gardens, to Nyhavn where Hans Christian Andersen lived, and then to the Little Mermaid statue.
Hans Christian Andersen's statue is right opposite Tivoli Gardens, but sadly there was a guy sitting on it so I couldn't get a good photo :(
