Frommer's Review

Opened in 1939, a year before the Nazi invasion of Denmark, this is not among the world-class aquariums such as the one that opened in Atlanta, Georgia. Give it a look only if you happen to be visiting the grounds of Charlottenlund Slot at Hellerup, a coastal suburb of Copenhagen. After walking through the grounds (the palace is not open), site of a royal residence since 1690, drop in at the zoo. Although it was enlarged in 1974, it still features only 90 or so tanks of the usual marine "suspects" -- sharks, turtles, piranhas, and both the fish which can survive in the North Sea and those from more tropical waters.
