Hamlet's castle

Our penultimate destination on this circular journey was Helsinborg, or Elsinor to the English. The reason for our visit here was not the pretty local town but Kronborg castle, otherwise known, for really quite spurious reasons, as Hamlet's castle. The guide books all said the walk was 15 minutes but in fact it was more like 45 minutes. However we did get there and, although the interior had closed at 5pm and we had arrived at 6pm, we still got to walk around and knacker our feet some more. It wasn't the best stop on the journey and a shame we had no time for the local town but we would have felt we'd missed out had we avoided it altogether. Of course the best sight at the castle is the view of Sweden which is so close you can recognise individual buildings.
