TROPICAL Norrebro

We have a neighbour, we call him Tropical (due to his taste in music). He made us believe yet again, that Danish people are not only polite and friendly but also full of passion and interests. The other day we were throwing a birthday party for our friend and when the time came, we started exploring deeper Norrebro with our neighbour and his friends.  It was great, because without him, we would not feel like the part of this group- solely Danish people and as I remember a hip-hop battle at the Saxons.

Saxons is a bar on Jagtvej 71, just a street going from Norrebro Rundel. Cheap drinks, cosy, a bit of graffitti and as we happen to get to knoe- nice people.

We also know, that by the building where Saxon’s is situated, there is a whole. Clearly a building has been demolished. And it was not an ordinary building- it was a space for cultural purposes for young people. Supposedly there was a lot of building of this kind, but the city did not allow them anymore.

Apparently there is also a movie about it.

As our neighbour told us: Norrebro is not the same as it was. It is not so colorful anymore.
