There are plenty of personal boutiques and specialty shops on two parallel streets: Vesterbrogade and the far end of Istedgade.
A number of up-and-coming clothing designers have settled into this area, so if you’re looking for unique clothing or vintage items, this is the place to find it.
For the latest in Danish-designed furniture, glass and jewellery, you might want to pop into Designer Zoo, on Vesterbrogade 137, where eight in-house designers work on their crafts.
The area also has funky restaurants, cafes, bakeries and wine shops, if you’re in need of refreshments.
