The park is filled with rides that bring all the nostalgic feels no matter your age, like its Carousel, Ferris Wheel and a spooky haunted house (Villa Vendetta).

Mixing the old and new, more modern renditions have been added to the park. Whizz down Vertigo at 100 kilometer per hour or enjoy a virtual reality experience when you test The Demon … if you dare!

Like most amusement parks, there are other areas to explore. Built during a time when strolling in fancy gardens was a favorite pastime, a main feature of Tivoli is its gardens.

Check out the Hanging Gardens or The Orangery. Wander into The Orient where you’ll spot a traditional pagoda and a Chinese-inspired bamboo garden complete with ponds and Dragon Boat rides.

Apart from the thrills, get inspired by the architecture of the park, that’s reminiscent of the past. The Merry Corner is where you’ll discover Renaissance-inspired buildings, and The Alley showcases an old-school Danish market town.

If arriving with little ones, don’t miss Rasmus Klump’s World, daily shows included. Speaking of, there are daily performances and theatre shows, and an aquarium on-site too.
