Why Denmark
Denmark is
located in northern Europe and is part of Scandinavia. Denmark consists of the
Jutland peninsula, the larger islands of Zealand, Funen, and Lolland-Falster
and 429 other named islands between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, 72 of
which are inhabited.
Nowhere in Denmark is more than 50 km
from the sea. And just a few kilometres from Denmark’s major cities of
Aarhus and Copenhagen you find idyllic villages and pristine woodlands and
lakes.
