You're standing on City Hall Square in Copenhagen, with Tivoli and the Central Station just around the corner. In front of you is the City Hall. Start with the façade. It's richly decorated, and right above the balcony shines a gilded statue of Absalon, the man who founded Copenhagen. Above him is an older version of the city's coat of arms.
