The Little Mermaid, Nyhavn, and Tivoli Gardens are the first places that come to mind when someone mentions Copenhagen, but Superkilen Park deserves as much attention. Its unique design transformed it into one of the most Instagram-friendly spots in the Danish capital that you shouldn’t miss during your visit.

Super Trendy and Cool

Superkilen is located in Copenhagen’s Nørrebro district, with a vision to promote tolerance and unity in one of the city’s most ethnically diverse communities. It officially opened its doors in 2012 and it stands as a symbol of global culture coming together in one unique space.

What makes Superkilen so diverse are its design elements that originate from all across the globe. From the Indian playground and Armenian picnic tables to the Moroccan fountain and Israeli drain covers, this unusual park features a little bit of something from every corner of the world, making sure everyone feels welcomed during their visit.

Superkilen is divided into three different areas, starting with the red square—a recreational area painted bright red, orange, and pink, designated for community-organized events. It’s followed by the Instagram-friendly black market, known for its curvy white lines, which also features fountains and benches for visitors. The green park is Superkilen’s recreational area, and it’s a perfect spot for picnics, dog-walking, and playing sports.
