    When I was there nearly a year ago you were allowed to take photos basically everywhere exept in the pusher street where the weed is sold (fairly cheap in comparison to the whole of europe). But I have to say that we were in company of a guide of Christiania. So if you film alone by yourself it might be different.

      There is many rules and laws in there, like no running, and no cars. You cant rely on tourist infos from yt footage lol. And yes you cant film on pusher street, because there is obv dealers there, which is not interested in getting recorded for obv reasons. The rest you can film as much as you want. Christiania for most Danes is like a village park you can come and relax with less of a big city vibe. Many come after work to grab a beer and a little one, and just enjoy free time. There is also some decent restaraunts and cafes in there, a woman blackmith and some funky small shops.

    Actually the only place in Christiania you're not allowed to filmin is the pusher street, every where else is fine to film :) is also not true that theres no rules or laws, the community makes their own laws. for eksemple weed is allowed but they do not allowed other hard drugs. Its also very important to note that the people selling drugs are NOT people from Christiania. The citizens have tried numorous times to get rid of pusher street, with no luck. The Christianits are very peacful people and really what they want is for weed to be legalized, so pusher street can be gone.

      The real reason for the no filming rule is that the drug dealers on pusherstreet are criminals and gang affiliated. Filming them is basically putting them at risk and therefore they may react violently if they catch you filming. Other people in the area will ask you not to film simply because they dont want the drama if you get caught.. basically for your own safety.
