Exploring Freetown CHRISTIANIA in Christianshavn | COPENHAGEN, Denmark | Commune |Alternative Living

Freetown Christiania, is an intentional community and commune of about 850 to 1,000 residents in the borough of Christianshavn in the Danish capital city of Copenhagen. Christiania has been a source of controversy since its creation in a squatted military area in 1971. Its cannabis trade was tolerated by authorities until 2004. Since then, relations between Christiania and Danish authorities have been strained. Since the beginning of the 2010s, the situation has been somewhat normalized and Danish law is now enforced in Christiania. Source: A lot of the people living in Christiania built their homes themselves giving the area an extremely interesting architectural feel. And you will find a variety of eco-restaurants, workshops, galleries and music venues offering all sorts of cultural experiences. Source: ♡ Thank you for watching!
