The beautiful city of Stockholm is spread across 14 islands and more than 50 bridges on an archipelago in the Baltic Sea. The Old Town, Gamla Stan with its cobblestoned streets and ochre coloured buildings is the stuff of fairytales! Gamla Stan is one of Europe’s most magical and well preserved historic centres complete with a charming Royal Palace, the 13th century Storykyrkan Cathedral and the Nobel Museum. Stockholm is expensive, has short, cold days in winter but has friendly locals, delicious cuisine and seemingly endless beautiful streets, bridges and waterways! Here are 10 photos that will make you want to visit Stockholm (even in winter, like we did)!
If those ten photos aren’t enough to convince you then maybe this bonus one will…
I can guarantee you Swedish meatballs are definitely NOT overrated and are one of the most delicious foods you’ll enjoy in Scandinavia.
