Surrounded by mountains and lakes, the town of Saint Moritz hides amidst the mist and snowflakes of the Swiss winter.

Winter in Copenhagaen. Credit to Reza Arkan<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nIn the depths of winter, the city of Copenhagen gives off an atmosphere of culture and romance. The snow-filled city streets are filled with romance and tranquility, especially at the Nyhavn waterfront. The colourful buildings and ships berthed next to the street resemble something straight out of a fairytale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if you head towards the city\u2019s shore, you can find the world-famous statue of the Little Mermaid from Hans Christian Andersen\u2019s fairytale watching quietly over the falling snow, a truly moving sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
