Ah, Århus...

"The World's Smallest Big City", unofficial "Capital of Jutland"

and number one shopping city in Scandinavia

Århus is the oldest big city in Scandinavia, but at the same time it is very young and lively, full of contrasts and style, and surrounded by magnificent natural beauty. Locals are very sympathetic and always opened for a friendly chat, their warm attitude earned Århus a reputation as "The City of Smiles".

I'm always happy to come here for a couple of days - it's a great getaway, where my passion for art and design is always pampered. Visiting ARoS and private art galleries, strolling from one designer store to another (Designtorvet and Tidens Møbler, DECORATE SHOP and REPUBLIC of Fritz Hansen, Lampefeber), spoiling myself with gastronomic delights at

Malling & Schmidt, Ferdinand Brasserie or Restaurant Seafood.

A walk in Riis Skov and along the coastline, enjoying beautiful Bellevue and Åkrogen beaches or in Zen Garden north from Århus (a small universe for beauty, wellness and gourmet cuisine - it's something that you simply have to experience :)).
