Funen

Fyn, called "Denmark's garden" by the famous writer of fairytales and Odense born Hans Christian Andersen. The Funen countryside and its towns and villages paint a harmonious picture. The many living fences unite forests and fields in a picturesque landscape, and small village idylls with their ponds, thatched, half-timbered houses, hollyhocks and old orchards are still everyday sights. At Funen a number of impressive architectural structures can also be found, including Nyborg Slot, the oldest castle in Denmark, and Egeskov Castle (Egeskov Slot), an ocean-based castle that many call the most beautiful castle in northern Europe .

A bargain ticket for sightseeing in Odense is to get the Odense Adventure Pass This ticket enables you to enter major sightseeing spots and access public transport within the city for free. Tickets can be purchased at the Odense tourist board.
