Aarhus. (To skip Aarhus, skirt the center and follow E45 south.) To get to
downtown
Aarhus,
follow signs to the center, then
Domkirke
. Park in the pay
lot across from the cathedral. Signs all over town direct you to Den Gamle By
open-air folk museum. From Aarhus, it's 60 miles to Billund/Legoland (go
south on Skanderborg Road and get on E45; follow signs to
Vejle
,

For

take the

then veer right on
the ring road (following signs to

Legoland,
take the
Vejle S
exit for Billund (after
