As a student,I39。m always strapped for cash,so I assumed I could only afford to breathe the air — but luckily everything about Copenhagen is breathtaking. I was staying in an Airbnb, and rented a bike so I could cover more ground. One of the first places I visited was the Rundetaarn, or “round tower” built in the 17th century as an astronomical observatory. It has an equestrian staircase (a wide set of stairs big enough for horses to use) that went on and on. As I was going up, I stopped to visit the tower39。s library hall. At the top, there39。s a glass platform that gives a view 80foot straight down, as well as a bell loft. Luckily, the views over Copenhagen from the top were well worth the climb. After ing down, I hiked up to the Kastellet Fortress to see the famous Little Mermaid statue. Taking a photo with her was almost impossible with all the tourists crowding around—but sitting there and hearing the lapping waves of the deep blue Baltic Sea, waiting for the sun to set, was an unforgettable and calming experience. The next day, I visited the Glyptotek art museum, exploring the grand exhibits. I looked into the marble eyes of many Roman gods,and walked down dimly lit staircases to see mummies from Egypt. Before I unwillingly boarded the train back to the airport, I told myself that I must visit again—to experience the thrills of Tivoli Gardens, try more of the street food and everything else from this amazing city.(1)Why did the author rent a bike?
