She has been beheaded twice and has had her arm cut off, but Copenhagen’s statue of The Little Mermaid, known from H.C. Andersen’s fairytale (and a certain animated movie, of course), has never left her native country. Until now, that is.
Yesterday, the statue began her journey to Shanghai, where she will be part of EXPO 2010. This means that around 70 million people will experience the iconic symbol of the Danish capital from May 1 to October 31 as part of a cultural exchange between Denmark and China.
