The smallest, most southerly of the five nordic countries (when excluding its offshore territories), Denmark is host to a mix of beautiful, rural landscapes and lively city life. In recent times the country has moved away from its rather violent and occupational past when Danish Vikings attempted domination of most of Europe. It is now viewed as a benchmark for modern-day society, with liberal, progressive policies, a strong culture of free speech and an enviable welfare system.
Although the climate is relatively mild all year round (considering its northerly location), the main tourist season is during the summer months of July and August when the days are lighter and longer. During these months tourists and locals alike can enjoy the variety of activities staged across the country including street-festivals, longer opening hours for tourist attractions, open-air concerts and beach-side activities.
