RE: Welcome to Maribo, a cute fairy tale town in the Danish country!
I am danish and have actually been there recently. Note how empty the town looks... this is what is domestically known "udkants-Danmark" (outskirts-Denmark).... the centralization of education and high taxation welfare state, has all but killed the Lolland economy
Yeah, living in Copenhagen I do know the situation in the country, reading the paper and all but to be fair it was empty because I planned it like that: I don't like human presence in my architectural pictures usually so I wait for the right moment. In this case it was a winter Sunday, stores closed, no tourists and all so it's kind of logical to be empty, less than 6000 people... As I say in my post, the Post Office headquarters of the country are still based there though!!!
