Very unfriendly people. Yelling at people who take photos. Also there is dirt everywhere, full of junkies, illegal drug sellers, … just stay away and definitely don’t bring kids. It is not a hippie comunity rather a bunch of criminals.

Christiania – it might be quite ironic if this is like the new Catalonia, wanting to break free knowing that they do have their own currency. Intriguing.

Sounds like a cool place. I’m very open minded about it all. I’m not sure how it all works with the Danish government though. The art looks beautiful and I love the one you featured for my blog.

I hadn’t heard of Christiania but what an intriguing place. The street art looks amazing.

I missed this last time I was in Copenhagen! I would love to see all the street art. Sounds really interesting that they have created their own society along with their own currency.

Great post, Anda. I had heard about this place, but really only had a very vague idea about it. Most of the principles like no hard drugs, no violence, no stealing, no cars, sound pretty decent. In some way there is a lovely touch to life in a self-governing community. While Ellie & I are unlikely to ever move in, we’ll make sure to visit on our next trip to Denmark and check out all the street art.

Reading this brought back some interesting memories! We visited Christiania Freetown a few years ago. I personally wouldn’t go back, but it was an eye-opening experience!

I had no idea Christiania existed?? And they have their own money?? Places like this fascinate me. Thank you for introducing me to Christiania!
