BEST SHOPPING STREETS IN AARHUS

If you are going shopping in Aarhus, you will probably want to know where to find all the good shops. Here you get a lot of good tips for the best shopping streets:

Strøget in Aarhus stretches over several shopping streets, just waiting to give you good shopping experiences. Start at the Central Train Station and walk up Ryesgade. From Ryesgade you now pass the road to Søndergade, where you can enter the department store, Salling. Once you have crossed the water, the road ends at Store Torv.

Here you can either continue out into the small, cobbled streets in the Latin Quarter, where you will find many small and larger shops. Finally, also take a detour to Guldsmedgade with all the great shops. From Guldsmedgade you can walk back towards Lille Torv, which is adjacent to Store Torv. Here you will find Magasin – and a lot of nice cafes by the river that call for a break.

From the river you can continue the shopping trip up Frederiksgade, which in addition to shops also offers many bars and restaurants. The trip ends at the City Hall, where you can take bus 1A up to Tordenskjoldsgade at Trøjborg. Trøjborg is a cozy neighborhood with many smaller shops and lots of cafes and restaurants.
