Guidebook for Aarhus
Food Scene
Cheap but very good = Save $$$! Moules frites, fish and chips, etc. The main course of the day is ALWAYS excellent (normally 70 DKK). Long lines means coming early and waiting (but it's worth it).

Quality grease!
Get the Le Coq Dog for a different kind of hot dog! Or try a sandwich, the 'steak' one is really good, and they'll cut it in half for two people, if you just need a smaller bite.

Lovely park, iconic buildings. If you can, get to the northwestern end of the park, to 'Statsbiblioteket' and Aulaen (State Library and main hall). There's a nice view. If you bike, mind the cars.

Biocity cinema! Google Maps can't find it, for some reason, but it is there. If you need a large, but nice cinema, this is the one (more cosy than Cinemaxx above the train station).

Drinks & Nightlife
beachvolley, icecream, water, fun. It's a huge open area, and you don't have to buy anything to get access, so you can bring you own stuff (but ask the staff what parts are reserved for customers).

Hands down THE BEST place to bring small kids! Mainly because everyone else do, so nobody minds your kid screaming or running about… Sounds awful, but it really isn't - maybe because of the cake! :)

Nice park, feed ducks. If you go to the northern end (the top), there's a small playground. Try the xylophone. And walk a couple minutes north, across Vennelyst Boulevard, to see the university park.
