Tivoli Gardens
Tivoli is always evolving without abandoning its original charm or traditions. Georg Carstensen said in 1844: “Tivoli will never, so to speak, be finished”, a sentiment echoed just over a century later when Walt Disney said of his own Tivoli-inspired theme park, “Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.”

Brøndby Garden City, Located Just Outside Copenhagen, Denmark
While visiting the beautiful capital city of Copenhagen in Denmark, I encountered what seems like an alien civilization. To my surprise, these are just small piece of what called, “Colony Gardens”, literally a garden space that Danish citizens can rent to grow produces & vegetables. Space is extremely limited if you’re living the main city so this is the perfect way to have your own gardens & get back to nature! Owners are allowed to live there between April-October to take care of their gardens (can’t grow anything in the winter).
What a unique way of contributing to a better planet. Way to go Danes.
