Solvang, The Danish Village (Part 8)

After the excitement in Las Vegas, i better cool down myself (no more bet... no more bet keep on rewind to my ears). Next, our coach is heading back to California and our next destination is San Francisco. Along the freeway, we will stopover at Solvang, The Danish Village in California. This small town has only 5000++ population and founded by Danish travellers in the early 1900.

Solvang means "Sunny Field" in Danish. The city is home to some bakeries, restaurants, and merchants offering a taste of Denmark in California. The architecture of many of the buildings follows traditional German style. There is a copy of the famous Little Mermaid statue from Copenhagen, as well as one featuring the bust of famed Danish fable writer Hans Christian Andersen.








What is the nice pick in this little town? Ice Cream, Sausage, Chocolate, and of course BEER. Last but not least, the Danish's souvenir.
