Denmark's youngest city - experiences for young people in Aarhus

Denmark is a country with much to offer visitors of all ages and from all walks of life, but at home and abroad it's most commonly associated with young people. This is due to the large number of young people studying and living in Aarhus, who are adept at showing visitors how to have a great time in the paradoxical city - where a youthful vibe meets ancient architecture.

Even if you don't benefit from student discounts, getting around and going out in Aarhus doesn't have to be expensive - especially as most of the major attractions can be found within walking distance and cycles are free to rent. Buying an Aarhus Pass can similarly be a wise investment, offering free admission to museums and other attractions in the city, depending whether you're planning on seeing enough to make it worthwhile.

The youthful atmosphere makes trips to Aarhus fun, trendy and unpretentious, and the city can be the perfect antidote to more stuffy historical cities. That doesn't mean you'll find Aarhus lacking in history though - in fact, it's the second oldest city in Denmark.

You can see this clashing of ancient and modern best when heading to the city centre in areas such as the Latin Quarter, where cobbled streets lead the way to fashionable boutiques, fashion stores and antique dealers. You'll find plenty of cafs lining the streets too, to enjoy people watching during your Danish break.

On a sunny day, Aarhus can also be truly idyllic, thanks to the prevalence of green areas throughout the city. It's also only a short distance to the beach, where you can head into the sea for all manner of water sports, before heading back to the city centre to explore the beautiful Botanical Garden and open-air museum of the Old Town.

One of the best ways to meet locals and get involved in the local nightlife is to head to Aarhus' trendy clubs, most of which are based in central locations such as the Latin Quarter and Frederiksbjerg. Thursday to Saturday are the biggest party nights in the city, and locals and visitors alike can have great nights out at venues like Chokoladefabrikken, Train and Nine. The Student House Aarhus also hosts International Night on Tuesdays, so you don't even have to be a student to attend.

Aarhus isn't only great for teenagers and young adults either - kids will also be entertained on days out to local amusement parks, like Tivoli Friheden, and you can find Aarhus hotels suitable for all the family.
