Denmark - Zealand (PDF Chapter) Lonely Planet
More than just the dazzle of Copenhagen, here lie some of the country’s finest beaches, quaint villages and vainest castles such as Helsingør’s hulking Kronborg Slot. History-steeped Roskilde is home to a World Heritage–listed cathedral, Scandinavia’s top rock music festival and the superb Viking Ship Museum. History also comes to life at Sagnlandet Lejre, a hands-on archaeology site. Then there’s the millennia-old Trelleborg ring fortress and medieval Køge.
