Jomfru Ane Gade (English: Virgin Anne's Street), colloquially known as Gaden (English: the street),[1] is a well known street in the city of Aalborg, Denmark. It has gained popularity for the restaurants and pubs lining both sides of the street. It represents one of the longest continuous stretches of restaurants and bars in Denmark, only surpassed by a few areas in Aarhus and Copenhagen. On warm summer evenings, the terraces and restaurants fill up and then, as night falls, crowds of young people walk the street until they finally end up in one of the many discothèques. As of 2012, the street was said to have a turnover of approximately 300 million Danish kroner per year.
The street is a major tourist attraction within Aalborg and is said to be associated with the city's brand.[2]
