Pusher Street

Christiania - or Freetown Christiania - is a self proclaimed autonomous neighboorhood in Copenhagen. It was claimed in 1971 and is one of the biggest tourist attractions in the city. However if you wanna visit it you better get started. These years the government is trying to 'normalise' the area - whatever that means.

The photo shows the entrance with Pusher Street in the background.

  4. @ Steffe: Well, you are probably right, though I doubt that they will 'get rid' of them anyway.

    @ WO: I took this photo from the outside, as I didn't want to be too disturbing with my camera.

    @ Paulo: It is actually quite big, and 850 people live there. I am glad you like my blog.
