A network of pedestrian streets flanked with shops lies in the town center. On Tuesday and Friday, 7am to 1pm, there's an open-air market at Akseltorv, where traders sell flowers, fruit, vegetables, cheese, fish, and much more.
One of the largest shopping malls in Denmark, Kolding Storcenter, Skovvangen 42 (tel. 75-50-96-06; www.koldingstorcenter.dk), lies 4km (2 1/2 miles) north of Kolding's center (follow the signs to Vejle from the town center). Home to some 60 shops, it attracts an astonishing 80,000 visitors a week. In a style that evokes a megamall in California, it's especially crowded whenever it's raining, when hundreds of local residents come here just to hang out.
Another intriguing shopping possibility is the Kolding Antiques & Stall Market, held at Haderslevvej and Sdr. Ringvej on Saturday and Sunday 10am to 5pm.
The best art galleries in town are Galleri Elise Toft, Låsbygade 58 (tel. 20-96-54-14), and Galleri Pagter, Adelgade 3 (tel. 75-54-09-30).
