Denmark - Odense(欧登塞)

When you read the title Odense town in Denmark you might don't know what is special about the town. But if I tell you is the birthplace of the writer of fairytales, H.C. Andersen (著名童话故事作家:安徒生), then you might understand why I visited Odense.

What if you don't know who is Andersen, then let me tell you some of the fairytales that he wrote, "The Little Mermaid"(美人鱼), "The Little Match Girl"(卖火柴的小女孩), "The Ugly Duckling"(丑小鸭), etc.

Visited to H.C. Andersens Museum and the house his grew up.

The model of the statues located around the world.


(Left) His icon hat
(Right) His pen & ink pot. Those nice nice stories came from them!


His poetry and stories have been translated into more than 150 languages, some of his books display in this library. Malay is one of the language too! (I never knew this before) :p


Left some words in guests book.


In front of the museum has a stage telling his fairytale stories 3 times per day.

i really wish one day I will be able to go there and see it for myself...I mean the stories will be much more interesting if they are read and acted for us than just reading it from the book. =)) Thanks for this post...
