Nevertheless, popular spots like A, B, C, D, and E may prove otherwise. Any couple would do well to visit them when they're in the Danish capital. You just might feel all kinds of feelings when you go there with your special someone!
Nyhavn

And it's even said that the great
Hans Christian Anderson once lived here. It's more than likely that he spent much of his time writing his stories here. That alone makes Nyhavn such a romantic spot!
