Photo Tips: Take the unusual photo even if it looks like a postcard
Wonderful trip through the Scandinavian Countries, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark. Four weeks was a great time to use their version of Eurail pass that was only good for those countries but included Trains, Boats, and, Ferries which allowed me to go far and wide for a lower cost.
Stunning Castle – What is its name and where is it?
Searching online I have not been able to find anyone else who took a picture like this of a castle. My other photographs from that trip are in storage and on negatives or slides – I have not been able to absolutely identify this beautifully Stunning Castle. Anyone who can shed light on this for me – greatly appreciated.

My trip started with a flight into Oslo Norway with one night reserved at a hotel and a return from Copenhagen, Denmark. Because I was afraid to not get to Copenhagen on time for the flight back, I arrived several days early. Changed hotels when I realized the agency had booked me in a tourist area that was right in the center of the Ladies of the Night area.
Walking around was adventurous to find a new location that was safer for someone traveling alone. There are a lot of waterways in Copenhagen and I enjoyed walking the wide sidewalks along the water until I happen upon an area where the homeless were hanging out. On my return, a guy across the waterway made enough noise for me to look that way and of course, he was relieving himself. It was hard to know good and bad sections for me.

Great Amusement Park where I made my way to try the rides and see how I did without know the language or being able to read the signs. It was fun. Unfortunately, I do not have my own personal pictures but searching Flickr will allow you to discover lots about this park.

Beautiful photos! We’re going to be in Copenhagen in June with a day trip to Malmo so these pictures are making me more excited. We are looking forward to Tivoli and Fredericksborg Castle. What a great four-week adventure you had in Scandinavia.
Maybe when you come back you will have seen the castle I captured
Great shots of castles. I see quite a bit of them in my hikes in Germany. For the identification of the first castle, why not ask the castle expert, Andreas Susana aka @Travelwriticus?

Hi Eileen, I think the first photo is of Fredriksborg Castle at Hillerød, housing the Museum of National History.

It\’s the Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen. I\’ve been there last February. Been meaning to write a post about it but haven\’t gotten the chance yet! It\’s really nice, there\’s a huge park across it.

Glad to see that now you have the answer to the name of the mystery castle. Nice shot through the trees.

I’m sorry but have no idea of what castle is! I’ve never been to Denmark but really would like to go!
Looks like you got the answer re the castle. I like the sound of that Eurail type pass that includes boats – a great idea. I’d like to spend some time exploring Scandinavia too – but in summer.
Visited Copenhagen a couple of years ago and loved it! At first glance I thought the castle was Rosenborg but I think it’s actually Frederiksborg – they are similar in appearance.

I have no idea about castle, but your trip must have been lovely, especially have a Eurail pass. I haven’t been to Scandinavia but look forward to going one day.

I think I’ve been there before. Do they house the crown jewels of Denmark there?

Looks like a great place to visit! Haven’t been to Denmark yet, so unfortunately don’t know the name of this beautiful castle. Have you tried a Google search of Denmark castles? maybe you’ll find yours this way! ;)
