Tivoli Gardens amusement park features one of world's oldest operating wooden roller coasters--the Rutsjebanen. Some call it the Bjerg Banen or Mountain Track!



McAveler and Mimi visited the charming Tivoli Gardens amusement park in Copenhagen, Denmark.

RutsjebanenTivoli Gardens amusement park at duskTivoli Gardens is famous for its wooden roller coaster, Rutsjebanen or as some people call it Bjerg Banen (Mountain Track), built in 1914 in Malmö, Sweden.

It is one of world's oldest roller coasters made mainly out of wood that is still operating today.

Asian temple at nightAn operator controls the ride by braking down the hills so it won't gain too much speed. It is an ACE Coaster Classic, McAveler's favorite ride in one of his favorite places to visit during the summer months.

One of the beloved Tivoli landmarks is the beautiful Asian temple seen in lights at night.

Himmelskibet in Tivoli GardensThe world's tallest carousel, Himmelskibet, opened in Tivoli in 2006.

Eighty meters high and built by the Austrian company Funtime, it offers panoramic views of the city.

You'd think that Mimi would have no fear of heights because she is used to jumping through time and space but Himmelskibet tested her courage!

Not Mimi's favorite ride but still Tivoli Gardens is one of her favorite places.

Also at Tivoli are performing arts events, concerts, and the pantomime open-air theatre.

Happy Himmelskibet rider in Tivoli Gardens amusement parkTivoli Gardens is more than just a park, it is a reflection of a beautiful land and people.

McAveler and Mimi say that they can't wait to visit again!

And the open faced sandwiches were the real thing!
