The streets of Copenhagen are dotted with a vast selection of high-end fashion stores, as well as a quirky mix of boutiques celebrating the best of up-and-coming Danish designers.

Whilst Copenhagen’s main shopping street, Strøget, is home to an abundance of treasures, it is highly recommended that visitors take the time to explore the adjoining streets of Pilestræde, Gammel Mont and Amagertorv to get a taste of the city’s charm and the exceptional shopping it has to offer.
