Other attraction

There is more to Odense of course, not necessarily related to Anderson. Odense's nightlife, for example, is built around intimate cafés, live music, and cosy pubs. There’s also a casino. From June to August, the Odense Festival brings you rock and jazz, along with open-air opera. Odense’s pedestrian-only streets turn into venues for street musicians and other performers throughout the summer months.
Shopping? Sure. Every Wednesday and Saturday, the area outside the Concert Hall is transformed into Funen’s largest market with stalls selling fresh farm produce from the countryside. These are so fresh that I was very tempted to pick up some vegetables to be flown down to India. There is also an antique market, as well as many specialist shops, in the city centre. Alternatively, you can explore one of Denmark’s largest shopping centres, Rosengaardcenteret, just a few minutes from the city centre.
