Stretching over one kilometre from City Hall Square to Kongens Nytorv, Strøget is Copenhagen's principal pedestrian thoroughfare. Converted into a car-free zone in 1962, it pioneered modern European pedestrian shopping streets. The vibrant promenade is lined with Nordic design department stores, Royal Copenhagen porcelain shops, high-end boutiques, and historic cafes, while street entertainers gather around the Stork Fountain on Amagertorv.
