Oases in Aarhus

Aarhus is a city boasting an impressive number of revivifying oases and sanctuaries where you can enjoy life. From the re-opened river in the heart of the city to the Marselisborg Memorial Park; from the old wooden-ships harbour to The Botanical Gardens.

The wooden-ships harbour where old ships, beautifully maintained and freshly painted, are berthed side by side. Right next to this is the old fishing harbour, which retains the smell of fish, and which holds one of the city’s gastronomic temples.
