The Little Mermaid Statue: One of the World's Top Three Disappointing Attractions

The three most commonly mentioned disappointing tourist attractions in the world are the Merlion (Singapore), Manneken Pis (Brussels), and the Little Mermaid Statue (Copenhagen).

Among these, the one that felt the least impressive was this one 😂. It sits quietly near the Kastellet Fortress along the Langelinie Promenade, and you'll easily spot it thanks to the crowd of people gathered around!

While sunny days are nice, foggy days add a special atmosphere, almost as if reflecting Andersen's story of the Little Mermaid 📕.

It's about a 25-minute walk from Nyhavn, so we recommend enjoying the cityscape as you stroll over!
