Freetown Christiania in Copenhagen that the capital city of Denmark. This town has own rules and they refuse EU rules in the heart of a capital city. I know this is gonna sound a bit weird but certainly enjoyable :)
Hippies and squatters took over the unused barracks in Copenhagen in 1971. Christiania is managed by its own law, independent of the Danish government.
Christiania is a self-proclaimed autonomous anarchist district of about 850 to 1000 residents. This area covers 34 hectares. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freetown_Christiania)
The Freetown also has its own flag and money. I showed the flag below the photo. Their Money is called Løn but you can use Danish krone, too.
There are art galleries, concert areas, workshops, music places and food outlets.
Colourful graphs on the walls of buildings are so fascinating.

The rules forbid stealing, violence, guns, knives, bulletproof vests, and hard drugs. (http://www.leodelafontaine.com/galeries/micronations/christiania/christiania.html)
The main street is named Pusher Street. There is cannabis trade on this street. The open sales are illegal but Danish authorities made a decision to allow it. Because their aim is “prevent harder drugs”. Taking a photo is banned in some parts. The Green Light District has 3 rules that Have Fun-Don’t Run-No Photos. If someone runs, it is mean “dangerous situation” so people do panic.

The town is forbidden zone for cars. Bikes are used commonly.
This is a different toilet :D
I couldn't take lots of photos by rules. So, go and see more :)
