So fascinating to see my own city through the eyes of an outsider who actually spent more than just a few days here, but who had the time to take in some of the attractions and highly valued culture in our city. It is always amazing to see what outsiders notice in our town, and your intriguing mini-walkthrough of our city is highly inspirational even to me and it makes me appreciate the environment in which I move around so often even more. To see something you see every day through the eyes of someone visiting gives you a whole new perspective on top of your own perception of Aarhus. Thank you so much for this beautiful and flattering portrait of our proud tiny "mini-big city".
Well, in terms of cityscape, and culture, Denmark has got Copenhagen (a large, major European city), and Århus (a midsize city). Do never take for granted living in Denmark!!
This video gives me heartbreaking nostalgia. I was born and raised in Aarhus but I have lived abroad since I was 18 (29 now). I've only managed to be back in my beautiful hometown once in the last decade. Thanks for doing this. It has encouraged me to book a flight home as soon as travel restrictions are lifted.
When you visit Århus, don't miss Den Gamle By. This recreates town life from ages past, with old town houses from all over Denmark. There is a medieval section, and several more modern sections, the latest from 1974. They are building a 2014 section. Also, the Århus cathedral is not only Denmarks largest church, it has many medieval murals.
I think you nailed it. For the older crowd, the 1970s part of the Old Town (Den Gamle By) is not to be missed. Joining the March to an AGF soccer game is another treat.
Hello. Laura. very nice vedio. I lived in Copenhagen 2 years and every visit Copenhagen from USA. kindly can you write the background music start on 02:00 in vedio. so thanks.
This is a very charming city, I hope I can visit again sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
another great spot in Aarhus is mindeparken (memorialpark, it got its name because of the beautiful monument in the center of the park honouring the lives of the soldiers lost in ww1) and the queen's vacation home just behind the park. mindeparken is a very big park where you can see the water in the distance, see the pink cherry trees blossom in spring, or just watch people have a great time. it's also possible to walk through the queens garden when she isn't there. if she is, then you have the opportunity to see the guards with the big fur hats outside the gate:) hope you get to visit Aarhus, my beautiful hometown, again in the future:) you're more than welcome
What a lovely film. Great to see Aarhus getting attention. But how did you spend 6 months there without learning how to pronounce Aarhus? (ie it's Orhus).
Beautiful I'm soon to move there too Denmark I am moving to Copenhagen in 2021 one I will be starting my new year there wow very lovely video can you give me some idea tips what they will be to do there are
Liked the video! Pretty informative. About Aarhus being underrated: mass tourism can be a blessing but it can also be a curse: look at Madrid, Rome, or Paris overwhelmed by tourists everywhere demanding services and indirectly driving prices up! So I believe Aarhus is more enjoyable the way it is with not so many crowds! Be careful with what you wish! So count your blessings!
@@onlyoneamong300 ah, but Århus is just a midsize city, little known outside of Denmark. I think it would be more appropriate/fair to compare Århus to cities like Den Haag, or Utrecht (in Netherlands, also midsize cities).
I was named after this city. And because of this video, after almost 3 decades of existence, I learned the correct pronunciation of my name. I feel different. I don’t know if I’ll use it. 🤦♂️😂
The girl in the video is not pronouncing it correctly the Aa is pronounced as it was pronounced before Århus and Å is pronounced as deep spanish O ending with aw if u want...watch danish ppl pronounce it
I’m watching this because I’m almost sure I’ll be studying a whole semester abroad in Aarhus next year! I’m so nervouuss! but it looks like a beautiful city. Do you have any advice for me? do you happen to know anything about Aarhus University? 😊
I studied abroad at Aarhus Uni and loved every minute! You’re going to have so much fun 😊 My advice is to buy a used bike right away and go to all the places in this video 😋
Laura the Explorer whaaat! Really? What was your major? Thanks a lot for the bike advice😊 I’m still deciding between aarhus or melbourne, they’re so different I know! haha but idk, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me so I’m trying to collect as much info as possible to make the best decision 🥺
I might move there for school next year too! Don't be nervous! I've lived abroad for a year at a time three times and it's always been the most amazing experiences. Especially if you're going for school. There are plenty of international students in Aarhus in the same situation as you. You will make lots of friends :)
@@LauratheExplorer8 It still is build for cars and parking. Its just that tons of parking spots are empty due to the extreme charges enabling only wealthy or desperate people to realistically use them. Meanwhile the streets outside the center are filled to the brim at the end of a work day. So basically they just moved the traffic and pollution outside the city center. Far from optimal imo
@@krisk5765 u right dawg. we has at least one ghetto in every city with more than 30.000 citizens. but dont forget to mention theres a lot of immigrants that behaves really well tho
@@krisk5765 I dont see what u mean. If u didnt notice then let me say it more clear. I agree with your statement but there is a lot of immigrants who are good people aswell
@@christianhandberg9013 even if 1 from 1000 can be a radical isslamist, terrorist, you should not import anyone from this 1000 but Danes love this swamp, they love to live among such people as long as they don't feel it on own skin
Aarhus it's a boring city :( and very expensive :( ! No vibe and rainy weather ! But if you come here like tourist go and visit : Den Gamle By , Naturhistorikmuseum , Steno Museum , Møllestien it's a very old street , Moesgarden , Kalo slots ! It's not many things to do here ! My advice : go to Portugal , Croatia...etc because North Europe it's boring , expensive and not Vibe :( !
It's about a trillion times more enjoyable than Copenhagen. Everything in Denmark is expensive to anyone who isn't Scandinavian. It's by far my favorite city in the north, and the people there are much more authentic than anyone you'll ever meet in Southern Europe.
@@Malentor I love Copenhagen ! Copenhagen have Vibe , it's something else :) ! But you have to know , lasts year Aarhus was European Capital Cultural , but even Est Europa have more city with this title like North Europe :))))! And many of this city was European Capital Cultural before Aarhus ! Danmark don't have nothing ! But it's good to visit 1 time if you are curios :)))! I agree with you North Europa are more authentic like sud or est :)))), but in a bad way :( !

I guess the second largest city is a cool place in any country.
Yes may be in Europe but not in Asia
Germany:Hamburg - Check! :-)

Thank you for this comment ❤️ I’ll be booking a flight back here as soon as possible too! What an incredible city to grow up in
Why did you leave, and (not to pry, but) where do you live now (that you could only go to Århus once in a decade)?!
@@mariusmatei2946 Just the UK, but life hadn't permitted me to go back. I have been back there since I wrote that comment though so that was great.
I spent a month in Aarhus back in 1993 such a beautiful city

@@LauratheExplorer8it smells like mouse over there. medieval murals you will finde in rostock st.maria church.

I lived there aswell. I love denmark and aarhus! If everything goes well I will live and work in Denmark in a few years.
I've made a couple of 30min walking tours around this city. Really a fascinating city. Love Aarhus walks
Thanks Laura! I was born and raised in Aarhus, but have lived abroad for 25 years. Your video from this city warms my heart.
I’m so happy to hear that 😊
Hahah I randomly stumbled across this video - you filmed my apartment building! Glad you like Aarhus ❤️
No way!! You’re so lucky to live there 😊❤️
@@LauratheExplorer8 Where are you from Laura 😊
I think you nailed it. For the older crowd, the 1970s part of the Old Town (Den Gamle By) is not to be missed. Joining the March to an AGF soccer game is another treat.
This is awesome place, thank you for touring around.

This city has something that has hooked me up. And this video helps me see it clearer. In my wishlist ^^
I really hope you make it there one day!

Absolutely agree! Thanks :)
Lovely video, Laura! Keep them coming 😍
So can't wait to move to Copenhagen in Denmark coming of next year I am so excited
You’ll love it! Be sure to visit Aarhus while you’re there 😊
I took my bachelor in multimedia design in Aarhus back in 1995..... I love this city.

I bought a tool for my dad that shipped out of Aarhus. So i was curious and looked it up. Never heard of Aarhus Denmark before
What a lovely film. Great to see Aarhus getting attention. But how did you spend 6 months there without learning how to pronounce Aarhus? (ie it's Orhus).
Very nice video.. brought me back a lot of memories.. :)
Thank you! So glad it brought back memories for you!
Nice video.God bless always.From the Philippines...
Wow I can't wait to explore Aarhus one day! :D

Never heard of this city until recently,
and now thinking of visiting in december/januari
Highly recommend doing it! Christmas time here is beautiful as well 😍
I was named after this city. And because of this video, after almost 3 decades of existence, I learned the correct pronunciation of my name. I feel different. I don’t know if I’ll use it. 🤦♂️😂
😂😂
Århus, pronounced "Aw-hoos" (approximately).
The girl in the video is not pronouncing it correctly the Aa is pronounced as it was pronounced before Århus and Å is pronounced as deep spanish O ending with aw if u want...watch danish ppl pronounce it
Nice video Laura, I'm looking forward to visiting next weekend. Some good tips in there.
Enjoy your visit, you’ll love it!
Arhus is himestel (Swedish for heaven on Mother Earth) I wish I could kiss every Arhusian & hug’em for hrs..merry Christmas Arhus
Did you guys now Carlsberg is from denmark. Mindblown🤯🤯🤯
Wtf of course, even the name is danish bro
Yes! So accurate! Aarhus is the greatest 🥰
Im from copenhagen but im moving to arrhus soon so it will be nice to see the city :)
Great video 🇳🇬

Haha Pandemic was a fun hygge game until a few weeks ago 😂
can you write me music start on 02:00 in video. ? best video.
The beautiful Denmark.
Bratislava also very underrated!
J'y vais demain ! Cette vidéo est très utile mercii
Bon voyage! Merci :)
I was there in 2017. My friend Anja Jensen took good care of me. beautiful memories I was in the sites you showed. my fav though was the Viking museum
Nice video.
Cool👍
bellissima città Aarhus
Do you reckon it’s worth it for a solo holiday
Absolutely!
Aarhus
nice
I live in Aarhus
This city is cool all the time. 😆😆😆
totally agree :)
Landed!
Vie viel mal?😊habe ich schön gemacht
Also good luck on finding a parking spot
Definitely a city set up for walking and biking, not driving and parking ;)
@@LauratheExplorer8 It still is build for cars and parking.

Did you survive the "pandemic"? :D
Haha if only we knew then! 😂

genug mit dem Eis
WHAT?!
København Nordens Paris. Stockholm Notdens Venedig. Oslo Norden Århus! ♥️😅
US college kids discover there are cities built for people vs US lobby lol
😅
Hygge Hygge Hygge
As a Dane I know that now Århus is not a underrated!
there are also many radicalized bearded iisslamists who can be found there, real cultural enrichment, Danes must be proud of that :)

@RoEd "Most" it would be more appreciated :) But i consider that many dannish women are very beautiful anyway.
@@Christos_K
Believe me, they are.
Staying in Copenhagen/Roskilde/Odense/Aarhus in the summertime can be a tough job for a man. ;-)
Nothing special. There are thousands of cities like this in europe.
Danish people watch this because they are proud of their country lol
Living there for 6 months and still mispronouncing the name of the city.
HOW?
Thank you Matfej for so kindly educating me. :)
Imma help you its pronounced "or-hoose" Aarhus.
Mig ja jeg er
RoEd Nej men det gør ingen forskel

Looks boring
