At t e r da g ’s favourite pleasure-lodge Gurre on llic richly woodcd shore of tlie lille lake of Gurre. From this point the road leads to E1s i n o rc and the forlress of Kr onborg, wliicli should be visited by llie traveller, if not for the sake of llic castle, a magnificent Golliic struclure, at any rate for the sake of the commanding view over the Sound vvilh ils over passing fleets of ships and ils imposing back-ground of the Swedish coast and the towering rock of Kulien. Ma r i e l y si, thal was given by King Frederik VII lo the nation for a hospital for invalided soldiers, has now by some trick of expcdiency, so common in our enlightend days , become a fashionable watering-place renled by a Mr. Ilrix. The gardens are open to all, and the views in the immediate neigbourhood are of great, beauty. Aboul six miles to the south of Elsinorc is Run g s t e d and, farlher south, the fishing village of Vedbek both of which are mueh rcsorled to by Gopenhagcncrs and touched al by the steames that ply between Copenhagen and Elsinore.
