Russia offers a diverse range of cultural and natural attractions that can appeal to Danish visitors. While it attracts around 6.4 million foreign tourists annually, its appeal lies in the variety of experiences available. With 3.2 million Danes traveling abroad each year, a portion may find Russia an intriguing destination.
Russia presents certain safety concerns for tourists coming from Denmark. In terms of safety while walking alone at night, Russia ranks 30th out of 40 countries, significantly lower than Denmark, which ranks 6th. Additionally, the Global Peace Index places Russia at 154th out of 160 countries, compared to Denmark's 8th position. Crime statistics further highlight these differences. The murder rate in Russia is 6.8 per 100,000 people, whereas Denmark's is notably lower at 0.8. Female murder rates also reflect this disparity, with Russia at 3.3 and Denmark at 0.5. According to the Global Organized Crime Index, Russia scores poorly in various categories, such as crime networks (7.5) and state crime (8.5), compared to Denmark's much better scores (4.0 and 2.0, respectively). Overall, while tourists can visit Russia, they should remain aware of the safety challenges and take necessary precautions.
