Aalborg from the rooftop

Aalborg from the Salling rooftop

In the northern Denmark city of Aalborg, you’ll find the Salling department store in the heart of the city center. One of its attractions is its rooftop with its commanding views.

As tourists, of course Margaret and I wanted to see. We spent a good part of a Saturday exploring the shopping district in the city center, which took us right to Salling. Inside, it was clearly marked how to get to their rooftop. I had my Nikon Df around my neck, with a 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-G Nikkor zoom lens attached. Here are the best of the photos I made up there.

The water here might look like a river, but it’s really a fjord; the Limfjord to be specific. That’s an inlet of the sea; this water is salty.

Near the end of our time on Salling’s roof, I turned my iPhone 12 toward us for a quick selfie.

    Yeah, but did you have a Danish for breakfast? 😁

      The Danish don’t eat Danishes for breakfast! They are more about protein in the AM.
