"One of the first things I spotted while walking around Solvang was one of its famous windmills. Denmark has long been a leading force in wind power and renewable energy, and at one point there were thousands of windmills scattered across the country. Solvang pays tribute to that history with its own windmills. You'll find four within four blocks of each other, and they make for popular photo opportunities for tourists."
"The entire town embraces Danish architecture. The charming inns and small boutique hotels are named after the likes of Hamlet and King Frederik or Danish towns like Copenhagen. Everything from the restaurants and shops to the public restrooms and bus stops has Denmark's distinct bindingsvaerk architecture, making you feel like you're in a different era - or at least outside of the US."
"One of the best parts about Solvang was the chance to sample traditional Danish cuisine. I have yet to visit Denmark, so I loved spending the weekend trying the Danish food in Solvang. After reading several travel blogs, I decided to have lunch at Solvang Restaurant, where my family tried the ham and Tilsit cheese sandwich, Danish-style meatballs, and a sausage platter."
