The buildings from right to left of the flagpole are:
Christiansborg - the Parliament.
Børsen - Used to be the Stock Exchange. - IIRC that goes back to the early 1600's.
The last building I don't know about.

Crown Princess Mary's Work for Women's Rights (including Women Deliver Conference)
***********
Official event again added to Mary's calendar tomorrow. After the opening of the Parliament Mary will (probably directly) drive to meeting in the Foreign Ministry with the Women Deliver Committee:
H.K.H. Kronprinsessen deltager i Women Deliver Komitémøde kl. 14.30 - Kongehuset

A BB video from the event, where Mary and the minister are also seen handing out soccer balls to the twenty people who attended the meeting: Kronprinsesse Mary var spilfordeler i stiletter | billed-bladet.dk
At 01:00 a reporter comments: "You are quite adept at playing soccer, I hear".
Mary: "Am I good at playing soccer"?!?
Q: "Surely we have seen that a few times. - Almost. - Well...".
Mary: "I'm not".

And we can hear Mary humorous said: "Am I good? No, I'm not. They (the footballs) just end up out in the water or something."
I think she hands out those footballs with quite a good technique though (;

Well, it looked like she is better at handball, from the way she distributed the balls.

Thanks DOM,
Yes Crown Princess Mary will during the day tomorrow travels to Senegal for at 4 days trip.
The trip is made in order to experience and obtain a deeper understanding of the organizations' work with "Community Empowerment Programs" with a special focus on women and girls' rights and female genital mutilation.
I can see there is no section with "press information". Perhaps this is a trip without press? To learn and get a deeper understanding for how the organization are working in practice. Or perhaps the press information is just not published yet.

ADDED:
Maybe we will se F&M's close friend Birgitte Handwerk traveling along as part of the delegation. She is the vice-chairman for orchidproject.dk. Close friend Julie Mølsgaard is on the board too

It seems as my thoughts about the missing box with "press access" was right. It seems that this trip is without media. To learn and get a deeper understanding for how the organization are working in practice. Well done.
Maybe we will get something later on :)

It's a very delicate topic. I guess if Mary wants to learn more and talk to women, they need the confidence of a private conversation.

That's great that she's working without press so she can really understand and help. Good on her
