Although the conference should be a sufficient motivation for visiting Copenhagen, the city has in fact many attractions to offer. In the harbour area numerous monumental sites have recently been constructed or are on the drawing board: the extension of the National Library (also called the "black diamond"), the Opera House, the new city area at Holmen - located in an historic naval base - and the largest offshore wind turbine park in the world. You may explore Copenhagen by free bicycles, which are available throughout the city center. Tivoli, the Little Mermaid and Nyhavn are some of the well-known sights you will encounter on your ride.
