Spring time and Easter means going outside, enjoy the amazing weather and see something different than you do in the daily life.

I had a visit to the city of Roskilde about 30 minutes from Copenhagen. The main attraction there is the absolutely stunning cathedral!

A UNESCO world heritage site, due to the fact that it contains the most royal graves in the world, a total of 32 kings and queens are buried there, together with many of their kids and other family. But it's also a place with architecture history, as many of the chapels built throughout the 100's of years depicts the different architecture periods.

The firm they all worked for, started by James Salmon Senior in the 1830s, eventually morphed into Gillespie, Kidd and Coia, the legendary mid-20th Century Modernist architectural practice run by Jack Coia. This was wound up in 1987, ending a history of more than 150 years of helping to give Glasgow the look it has today.
