TIVOLI GARDENS PLAYGROUND is the fair's most delightful haven for very small children. Created by some of Denmark's best artists and architects, it has canals to sail boats on, a long, twisty slide that ends up in a sandbox, a Viking ship to climb over, a maze with magic mirrors, holes to stick small heads through, and other diversions...
