Calgary, Alberta, Canada

A re-imagining of The Little Mermaid statue in downtown Calgary — a gift from the city’s Danish community back in the 1970s. The sculpture stands today in the Telus Convention Centre. The original statue stands on the waterfront in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Everyone wants to see the statue of The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen. (Even me!) Snapped back in August 2014.

Come a long way to see you

Here’s one view of The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen. Little would you know from this perspective but she was being absolutely swarmed with visitors at the time.
