Malmo from Copenhagen

Go back on the train and continue to Lund.

Any particular interests? What led you to consider a day trip to Malmö?

(Also, Malmö is in Sweden, not Denmark.)

Just spending the day, did two full days in Copenhagen will do 1 day in Roskilde at cathedral and Viking museum. Have full day in Copenhagen on Monday and everything is closed. Thanks

I know Malmo is in sweden

If you have no special interests, I'd suggest going to Lund instead.

(And since you know Malmö is in Sweden it might have been a better idea to post the question in the Sweden forum.)

This was my experience in 2017, so take it as you will! I simply went to Ikea. This was towards the end of a 2 week solo trip throughout Scandinavia and I enjoyed the journey--especially crossing the Øresund Bridge and checking out what it was like to go to an Ikea in its motherland. It was my understanding that there wasn't a whole heck of a lot else to see in Malmö otherwise.

I rented a bike and pedaled around the city and out to the beach, about a half day excursion. True it's not the most dynamic place, but I wanted to set foot in Sweden and the timing worked for me.

I went to Malmö by train from Copenhagen because I’m a fan of The Bridge (Tv series) and I wanted to cross the bridge. I was really surprised by how not-interesting Malmö was. The weather was nice so I had lunch outside at a restaurant in a pretty square (Lila Torg, I think) and then wandered around a bit. Then I did a canal boat trip, which was moderately entertaining. Then I got back on the train to Copenhagen.

We have been to Malmö several times while our daughter lived there.

Ribersborgs Kallbadhus is a charming place on a dock to have a snack and watch the sea swans, or have a sauna or bath if you want! We have walked to Sankt Petri kyrka and then had lunch in a nearby square. Slottsträdgården is interesting and pretty to walk through and also has a wonderful cafe. We enjoyed browsing antique stores on some of the older streets.

I agree with the other commenters that Lund is very appealing. I would also recommend Ystad for a Copenhagen day trip. Keep in mind that the price to ride the train across the bridge and back is expensive compared to a train ticket to travel an hour within Denmark.
