Helsingor (Denmark) photos

I visited Helsingor (Denmark) last Saturday, together with 6 other friends (Jon, Tanunya, Bryan, Nick, Rogelio and Justyna). Helsingor is just 5km from Sweden and it took us about 40 minutes (excluding waiting time for train) to reach it from Lyngby. We visited the Kronborg castle, the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. The statue of Viking Holger Danske sleeps in the dank, legend holds that he will awake to defend Denmark in its darkest hour.

Here are the photos. The photos are not in order. :)
