Herning is a Danish town in the Midtjylland region, in central Jutland, Denmark. It has a population of 46,000 (2011 estimate). The town was created in the early 19th century when the heath was reclaimed for farmland. Later on, the railway line was built through the town, helping it to grow further. Other industries came to Herning, among them, textile weaving.
Today Herning has diversified its economy. It is the location of Messecenter Herning, the biggest exhibition center in Scandinavia, and hosts numerous trade fairs. The town also has a number of tourist attractions which I will list below.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
