Frederiksberg Runddel is a main square that serves as the grand entrance to Frederiksberg Gardens, distinguished by its elegant cobblestone layout and the yellow buildings of the Royal Military Academy. It acts as a lively urban focal point that hosts a popular ice-skating rink in winter.

The waterfall in Frederiksberg Gardens is an artificial cascade built to embody the romantic style of the English landscape garden. It is a picturesque feature, standing about 7 meters (23 feet) high. Originally constructed with materials like marble blocks, it was left in ruins for many years but was reconstructed in 2004 to restore its original charm. It adds an element of scenic drama and motion to the park's tranquil canals and winding paths.

One of Copenhagen's lakes with cycleways as well as pedestrian paths for running and walking around. The lakes are quite shallow and can be smelly when the water is low, but in general they are very pretty and popular for recreation amongst locals. Swimming is not allowed, but there's some bars and cafés along the lakes and there are many birds to spot.
