Aalborg. Pop. 121,540. Currency – Danish Krone. Language – Danish. Time Zone GMT + 1 hour. Airport – Aalborg AAL. Best Time to go – good all year round. Aalborg is the 4th largest city in Denmark and is known as an industrial city, and was historically famous as a herring fishery base. Aalborg is also home to De Danske Spritfabrikker's ("Danish Distillers") akvavit snaps, a drink that is often served in shots and drunk in one go. However, purists would argue that it should be savoured like a good whisky and drunk slowly.
