Day 14 - Viborg

image hosted on flickr

picture by poulwernerdam from Flickr.com

Viborg is one of the oldest towns in Denmark, with Viking settlements dating back to the 8th century. Due to its central location, the town had great strategic importance, in political and religious matters, during the Middle Ages. A motte-and-bailey type castle was once located in the town. Viborg takes its name from a combination of two words: Wii (Nintendo Wii), meaning a holy place, and berg, meaning a hill.

Møns Klint is an impressive landmark and tourist attraction along the eastern coast of the Danish island of Møn in the Baltic Sea. The bright chalk cliffs stretch some 6 km from the park of Liselund in the north to the lighthouse in the south. Some of the cliffs fall a sheer 120 m to the sea below. The area around Møns Klint consists of woodlands, pastures, ponds and steep hills, including Aborrebjerg which, with a height of 143 m, is one of the highest points in Denmark. The cliffs and adjacent park are now protected as a nature reserve. Møns Klint is popular with tourists from across Europe with hundreds of thousands of visitors a year. There are clearly marked paths for walkers, riders and cyclists. The path along the cliff tops provides impressive views and leads to steps down to the shore in several locationsion of two words: Wii (Nintendo Wii), meaning a holy place, and berg, meaning a hill.

Boscorelli · January 31st, 2008, 12:49 AM

Amazing! It's a bit like the white cliffs of Dover and Great britain, isn't it?

Frederiksberg is located as an enclave within the municipality of Copenhagen. The municipality was originally situated west of Copenhagen, but after a number of smaller municipalities were merged with Copenhagen in 1901, it became completely surrounded by Copenhagen.
The pictures shows Frederiksberg Castle which is located in Frederiksberg Garden just next to the Copenhagen Zoo.

Rebild Hills, don't know much about the area besides that Danish-Americans each year celebrate the 4th of July here.

Nõgesh · January 31st, 2008, 09:04 AM

I like this tree

Ton-Tille · January 31st, 2008, 03:54 PM

That's one strange looking tree

UrbanLife · January 31st, 2008, 06:34 PM

Quite windy there, I guess?

ØlandDK · January 31st, 2008, 07:27 PM

Think it's a bush and that' just how it grows I guess...

UrbanLife · January 31st, 2008, 08:07 PM

Sure? I've seen several windy places with the same directed wind all year round. This gradually bends all the threes in the wind direction. It looks quite weird.. http://www.patagonia-biking.com/phot...-bike-tour.jpg

ØlandDK · January 31st, 2008, 08:14 PM

Don't think it's extreme windy there or anything like that since it's a bit away from the coast. Maybe some storm gave it that shape

UrbanLife · January 31st, 2008, 08:25 PM

Ok. Who knows..

Just reminded me of the Jæren area on the western coast (sand beaches, windy - and vegetation embossed by the weater

)
