La capitale suédoise est une étude de contrastes, où l'histoire des Vikings se heurte à l'architecture moderne. Composée d'un ensemble de 14 îles reliées par 57 ponts, la ville habite une extrémité de l'archipel de Stockholm, qui s'étend loin dans la mer Baltique. La collection compacte d'îles et de quartiers diversifiés est facilement accessible à pied, à vélo, en bateau ou en transports en commun. Une promenade dans la vieille ville de Gamla Stan révèle des rues pavées et des résidences médiévales, et d'autres arrêts incontournables incluent le palais royal de Kungliga Slottet, le musée Vasa et le Royal Djurgården.
Stockholm doesn’t hibernate during its long winter; instead, locals ice skate and cozy up at bars. Summer is the best, although most expensive, time to enjoy the city, with fall and spring at a close second. Kulturnatt, a citywide culture and art festival, typically takes place mid-spring. For 18 hours of daylight, visit in June when the sun barely sets.
Stockholm, which encompasses 14 islands connected by bridges, is famous as the gateway to the Stockholm archipelago and for the Stockholm Old Town of Gamla Stan with its cobblestone streets and medieval buildings. Stockholm is also home of the Royal Palace, Vasa Museum, and Royal Djurgarden.

Other top attractions are Vasa Museum, home of the mighty Vasa warship; Tivoli Gröna Lund amusement park; open-air Skansen Museum; Stockholm Royal Palace; ABBA The Museum; and Nobel Prize Museum.
