The gorgeous gardens and parks are beautifully illustrated in this wonderful publication. A map in front of the book is a guide so you may find your way around the Copenhagen area to see all these gardens and parks firsthand--from the formal gardens by Rosenborg Castle to the casual natural parks, which make one feel that one is far outside the city. The incorporation of fountains, waterfalls, sculpture and murals is done in exquisite taste. The lush colors of an abundance of perrenials decorate Tivoli. Arbors and alles go back several hundred years in landscape architecture, forming an entrance to the castle or manor house, often covered in wisteria or roses, offering a very different impression in the summer from the winter. This books also shows private gardens, cemeteries, outdoor restaurants, garden pavilions, etc.
