Solvang is fun to wander, so long as you don't expect an authentic experience. It's as though It's a Small World was brought to life!

Birkholm's bakery gives you samples so you know what you are buying. We went to the Solvang restaurant. Food was ok. The Aebleskivers are a must-have treat. They are like pancake balls with jam and powdered sugar.
[Liz, 03/29/2013]Fun little town, especially for someone looking for a laid back day. The atmosphere is very calm. Great coffee drinks at the shop attached to the Hans Anderson museum. Looking for Dutch food? We ate at the Red Viking, and it was delicious... apart from the liver pate.

I love this town. We always have to stop to get some pastries at Mortensen's and go to the toy store.
[Kelly, 06/16/2010]My first time there. It was a very nice trip to Denmark in America. I have been to Helen, Georgia, which is done up the same way, except it is a Bavarian-style village. I liked Solvang much better. More to do there.
