Stockholm beauty on water
Stockholm is a beautiful, lively city that offers a wonderful mix of cultures, architecture and tourist attractions that appeal to visitors throughout the year.
Architecturally the old narrow streets of Gamla Stan and beautiful palaces are in contrast to the straight lines of modern Scandinavian design found in many of the hotels.
Those in search of culture are spoilt with a wide range of museums such as Skansen and Vasa that will appeal to even the most jaded tourist while those wanting a slower pace may settle for a picnic in one of the many waterside parks even taking a dip on a summer’s day or watching the world go by from one of the many cafes.
Evenings offer something for everyone with concerts, theatres, award winning restaurants and a lively buzzing nightlife.
