Ready for a different experience? Then follow me to Freetown Christiania (Danish: Fristaden Christiania). This part of Copenhagen is a self-proclaimed autonomous neighbourhood of about 850 residents, covering 34 hectares (84 acres) in the borough of Christianshavn.
A town within a city, a rebel neighbourhood within a well-ordered society. Within this community are tiny houses, built by hand and with whatever materials are within reach. This results in wild, freeform, colorful and charming architecture.

The freethinking individuals who inhabit the area are a self governing community who refuse to pay taxes to the Danish government, run their own businesses and schools, live without cars on unpaved roads, build their own houses, restaurants, theatres and civil buildings and even have their own currency.
