The Little Mermaid
The Little Mermaid, inspired by a character in Danish author Andersen’s 1837 fairytale of the same name, is a 175kg (385lb) statue by the sculptor Edvard Eriksen. The statue sits in the relatively secluded harbor of Langelinie in Copenhagen.

Many of my travels have had a Biblical focus and other historical significance. Copenhagens’ war history is heartbreaking. The Churchill Parken (Park) is a beautiful tribute to war and peace.
