Stockholm city sights, boat tours and shopping

Stockholm isn't your ordinary city. It's actually made up of 14 islands, connected by bridges over Lake Mälaren which eventually flows into the Baltic Sea. Most of the city's charming attractions are found in the inner city but don't neglect the undeniable beauty of the archipelago. The City Hall (where the Nobel Prize banquet takes place every year), Royal Palace, Drottningholm Palace (official Royal residence) and the Skansen (an open-air museum) are all must-sees. Galma Stan is the old town, an attraction in itself with houses that date back to medieval times! Stockholm has more than 70 museums, so you can be sure you won't be bored when you book flights to Stockholm. The Vasa Museum is probably the most popular which features a warship from 1628 and was recovered from the water in the 1960s almost entirely preserved. It's the only thing of its kind in the world. Skansen was the first open-air museum in the world, with 150 historical buildings from ages past. Hosts in historical costume show how to weave, spin wool, blow glass and do other crafts.

One thing is for sure, you can easily explore Stockholm on foot, by bike and even boat! Historical, Royal and canal boat tours talk you through the water passages of Stockholm, under bridges and through locks. It's an alternative and exciting way to see the city. Shopping is a must in this Nordic city. Sweden is, after all, known around the world for its design and giving the world IKEA. Clothing, textiles, interior decoration, hand-made trinkets and hand-painted glassware are all possible souvenirs. Unique shops line the streets in Gamla Stan and if you happen to book flights to Stockholm in late autumn, save time to explore the Christmas Market at Stortorget. During the day Götgatsbacken, the northern part of Götgatan on Södermalm, is a shopper's paradise. At night, it's one of the best places for nightlife in Stockholm. For local design and one-of-a-kind, head to the SoFo district.
