City Escapes to Stockholm When viewed from above, Stockholm resembles a captivating jigsaw puzzle. Positioned across 14 islands, Sweden's capital is easily traversed by more than 50 bridges, in addition to ferries and sightseeing boats. Nestled on the shores of the Baltic Sea, Stockholm boasts over 30,000 islands off its coastline. Renowned attractions include the 17th-century warship at the Vasa Museum, the Medieval old town of Gamla Stan, and the ABBA Museum.

The Enchanting Streets of Gamla Stan Gamla Stan, Stockholm's historic centre, stands out as one of the largest Medieval city cores in Europe. Spanning four islands, its pastel-coloured buildings, dating back to the 13th century, create a picturesque setting. A visit to Stockholm would be incomplete without strolling through Gamla Stan's narrow cobblestone streets and meandering Medieval pathways.

An Archipelago of Wonders Stockholm's proximity to its archipelago is among its most appealing features. The bustling city streets are just a stone's throw away from this collection of 30,000 islands, stretching from Oregrund in the north to Landsort in the south. A two-hour boat journey can transport you to the farthest reaches, revealing a diverse landscape of rocky cliffs, secluded sandy coves, and clusters of charming fishermen's cottages.

Museum Marvels For culture enthusiasts, Stockholm offers a rich array of museums and art galleries. The ABBA Museum pays homage to the iconic Swedish band's costumes, music, and performances. The Vasa Museum is a compelling stop, housing a warship with a remarkable history. On the art scene, the Moderna Museet stands out as a premier institution dedicated to contemporary art.
