It was my last day with my copenhagen card, so I took the train to visit the city of Roskilde. It is really small, when compared with Copenhagen, but it was once the capital of Denmark. This is a really nice and pleasant city. At first, I just went there to see the museum of Viking's boat, but I really enjoyed to walk in Roskilde. The museum was also really good. It is a small museum, so there's not so much to see, but it was very complete and I learned a lot about the vikings and their boat. There are lots of activities, which can be done. For exemple, you can sail on a viking boat for half an hour, make your own little ship in wood with their tools or wear vikings clothes, which is very well done and fun. They also rebuilded some viking boats based on some parts of the original ones! Then, I almost skipped Roskilde cathedral. I would have regretted it a lot. The cathedral regroups most of the remains of the dead kings and queens of Denmark. I was shocked by the beauty of the tombs. Really, it was shocking. This is definitely not
something that can be described with words or pictures. You must feel it yourself to understand. So this is an important advice of mine : If you come to Compenhagen, you must visit the town of Roskilde and its two places !
