Malmø_1

Malmø is the nearest town to Copenhagen in Sweden, so near that one is hard to tell the slight different between these 2 cities. The two city is connected by unique Oresund Bridge where part of the bridge is underground (or shall I say 'under-sea'). When I first saw it in the plane, I thought it's a bridge under construction :$ and this picture is actually 'stolen' from the Internet. I didn't manage to snap picture in time (will try next time I fly)



Aside from the magnificant 'under-sea' part, if I show Oresund Bridge's side view picture to Penangite, they might just think it's another Penang bridge shot :p

Malmø to me is like a smaller scale Copenhagen city, I really can't tell the difference between these 2 cities (perhaps because I'm not local?). Both has canals, happening city square (Copenhagen is needless to say, more vibrant), lots of statues etc...

The most special building in Malmø that Copenhagen doesn't have is the Turning Torso - the tallest skycraper in Sweden. The down side of the building despite its beauty is - it's a residential building, can snap picture, can touch the wall but can't go in :(

More about Malmø harbour next blog.
