    Møn

    Møn is an island in south-eastern Denmark. Until 1 January 2007, it was a municipality in its own right but it is now part of the municipality of Vordingborg, after merging with the former municipalities of Langebæk, Præstø, and Vordingborg. This has created a municipality with an area of 615 km2 (237 sq mi) and a total population of 46,307 (2005). It belongs to the Region Sjælland ("Zealand Region"). Møn is one of Denmark's most popular destinations for tourists with its white chalk cliffs, countryside, sandy beaches and the market town of Stege.

    Location

    Møn is located just off the south-eastern tip of Zealand from which it is separated by the waters of the Hølen strait between Kalvehave and the island of Nyord, at the northern end of Møn. Further south is Stege Bugt. At the narrowest point between the two islands, the waters are referred to as Wolf Strait (Ulvsund), which is the primary strait separating Møn from Zealand.

    To the southwest is Stubbekøbing on the island of Falster, which is separated from Møn by the Grønsund (Green Strait).

    Donde Jugaran Los Ninos

    by: Man'a

    Cuenta el abuelo que
    De niño el jugó
    Entre árboles y risas
    Y alcatraces de color
    Recuerda un río
    Transparente si olores
    Donde abundaban peces
    No sufrían ni un dolor
    Cuenta mí abuelo
    De un cielo muy azul
    En donde voló papalotes
    Ue él Mismo construyó
    El tiempo pasó y
    Nuestro viejo ya murió
    Y hoy me pregunté
    Después de tanta destrucción
    ¿Dónde diablos jugarán los pobres niños?
    ¡Ay ay ay!
    ¿En dónde jugarán?
    Se esta quemando el mundo
