Tivoli is placed in the heart of Copenhagen - right next to the Central Station, Hovedbanegården. For most Danes Tivoli is part of a summer tradition and many remember their childhood visits to the old Gardens.
With the unique atmosphere, the lights, the people, the rides, the concerts and parades etc, Tivoli means different things to different people. Some come here to enjoy the many, fantastic flowers or spend a day with their grandchildren. Others come here as part of an annual tradition with the family where ice cream, rides and having a good time is central. Others again come here for the cultural events in the Concert Hall, at the Pantomime Theatre, in the Glass Hall theatre and the Open Air Stage.

Visit Instructions:
Because of the vastness of many of the "non-localized" sites (Gobi Desert, Great Wall of China), waymark owners are encouraged to allow visits that reflect different perspectives and experiences.
Localized waymark sites (Structures, Landmarks, Businesses) should reflect standard waymarking visit criteria (Logs & photos).
