Zealand

Zealand has been the center of Denmark's politics, culture, and economy for over 1000 years. This region of Denmark is one of the most beautiful and peaceful districts. The many castles and forests are what make this region so distinctive. Not surprisingly, this area has always been the favoured retreat of Denmark’s monarchs.

The Bjergsted Hills, is an ideal destination for anyone wishing to take a break in a unique area of rural Denmark, Møns Klint with its white cliffs is thought by many to be Denmark’s greatest natural attraction. First-class bathing beaches are found everywhere: Ulvshale on the island of Møn, Marielyst on the island of Falster and the whole of the Lolland-island Baltic coast.
