Copenhagen offers numerous leisure and recreational activities.
There are many cultural events and most of these activities do not
require any Danish language skills. For example, all cinemas show
films in the original language instead of dubbing them.
Several major investments have been made in cultural projects,
the most interesting being the Museum of Modern Art, the Royal
Library, the development of the Navy dockyard (Holmen), the DGI
sports centre, the Royal Theatre, and last but not least the
new Royal Opera built directly at the waterfront of the inner
harbour. Right across from the new Royal Opera, the new Royal
theatre will be built – also at the waterfront. These investments
and many more have made Copenhagen a culturally rich metropolitan
city in Northern Europe.
The greater Copenhagen region has 35 golf courses, each with its
own distinctive character, design and degree
difficulty ranging from 9 to 27 holes. Currently, a new
state-of-the-art golf course is on the drawing table. The new
course, "Royal Copenhagen Golf Center", will be placed only a few
kilometers from the city centre. The course is expected to open by
2009.
Moreover, the region offers a large number of world-class
museums and galleries showing a great variety of contemporary and
classic art exhibitions. Some of the most popular museums are
Statens Museum for Kunst (The National Gallery), Arken (Museum
of Modern Art) and Louisiana (The Modern Art Gallery).
