Frederiksberg Have and the Slot
Frederik IV's Baroque garden, the canal system, and the palace on the hill. This is a Claude-drafted route awaiting the editor's walk.

1. Frederiksberg metro (Runddel)
Where M1, M2 and M3 Cityringen all cross. The main park gate (*Runddel*) is directly across *Frederiksberg Runddel* square from the metro exit. The big elephant statues at the brewery gates are visible to the north.

2. The central canal
Opens immediately west of *Runddel*. Frederik IV's working canal system, now used for small boat hire in summer (May–September). Willows and ducks year-round. Walk the eastern bank for the *Kinesiske Lysthus* view.

3. Det Kinesiske Lysthus (Chinese Pavilion)
On a small island in the canal. J.A. Kirkerup designed the pavilion in 1799–1803 — a tea house in the Chinoiserie fashion the European courts were rehearsing at the time. Only viewable from outside; restoration has limited access for years.

4. Frederiksberg Slot (hilltop)
Climb the gentle gradient to the *slot*. J.C. Ernst's 1703 Italian Baroque palace was Frederik IV's summer residence; since 1869 the Royal Danish Military Academy (*Hærens Officersskole*) has occupied the building. Stay outside; the academy is a working institution. The view east across the canal is the closing image.

5. Søndermarken side gate
The hilltop opens onto *Søndermarken*, the more wooded park immediately south of *Frederiksberg Have*. The gate between them is the natural connection to the *Søndermarken + Cisternerne* walk in the same launch batch.

6. Back to Frederiksberg metro
Walk back through *Frederiksberg Have* via the canal path or the central avenue. The metro takes you back toward the city; or push west on M1/M2 toward *Lindevang* or *Vanløse* for the suburbs.
