Stockholm City
Welcome to Stockholm, the Capital of Scandinavia.
Discover a city like no other – a city built on 14 islands, where you are never far from the water.
Stockholm is also home of the Nobel Prize. And just outside the city, the archipelago of 24 000 islands is waiting to be explored.
Stockholm is a city of contrasts – water and islands, history and innovation, small town and big city, short winter days and long, light summer nights – with a dazzling array of impressions.
Thanks to the city ́s compact size, you can see and do most things in a short space of time – which makes it a perfect destination for city breaks or longer stays, all the year round.
Experience Stockholm ́s many contrasts Go back 750 years in time and feel the medieval atmosphere of the Old Town ”Gamla Stan” as you wander through the narrow streets. The trendy Stockholmers are often used as a test market by international companies, as they are quick to pick up on the latest trends.This is most obvious on the island of Södermalm, a hotbed of fashion, young culture and entertainment.
The island of Djurgården, the world ́s first National City Park, is only a short walk from the pulse of the inner city.
Stockholm offers a wealth of museums, theatres, sights, attractions and events, whether your interest lies in history, art, opera, modern dance, traditional handicraft, contemporary design or virtually anything else.
