Gamla Stan
The old Town in Stockholm, or, as it is called in Swedish, “Gamla Stan”, is one of the largest medieval districts preserved in Europe, and the most basic the historical landmark of Stockholm.
Walking along it, you plunge into the atmosphere of unique and inimitable architectural structures, cathedrals, monuments and sculptures that have preserved the memory of many historical events, mysteries and riddles, amazing stories and amazing facts about Stockholm.
City Hall
Stockholm City Hall is certainly one of the main tourist attractions of Stockholm, a symbol of the Swedish capital. The Town Hall hosts meetings of city authorities, important political negotiations are held, and a banquet after the Nobel Prizes is held annually on December 10 in its Golden and Blue Halls. It is worth noting that the Golden Hall is decorated with a mosaic of more than 18 million gilded tiles depicting scenes from the history of Sweden.
For tourists, the town hall offers daily excursions in Swedish and English, and it is also possible to book excursions in Russian. In addition, a magnificent panorama of Stockholm opens from the observation deck of the 106-meter Town Hall tower.
Stockholm Metro
Stockholm Metro can rightfully be considered a real museum, most tourists perceive it as an attraction. It is known all over the world for its unique design. Many travelers who have visited here call the Metropolitan a real art gallery. Here you can see amazing grottoes, ancient Greek sculptures, classical architectural products, wall reliefs, mosaics, pop art and fountains. Underground stations often become the venue for exhibitions. At this time, visitors have the opportunity to enjoy the works of hundreds of talented artists.
The ABBA Group Museum
On the island of Djurgården is the youngest and most interactive museum in Stockholm — the museum of one of the most famous Swedish bands — the ABBA group. The exhibition, as you might guess, includes personal belongings, shiny stage costumes of the band members, musicians’ instruments, a collection of records and much more. But most importantly, in the museum everyone can feel like the fifth member of the legendary group: you can sing with your idols or try yourself as a sound engineer. And, of course, here you can just dance to the rousing music of ABBA.
Carlson’s House
Probably, any adult and child knows that Carlson lives in Stockholm — the Kid’s best friend. To get to this magical house, you need to get to the Vazastan district, where the famous writer lived. This is an ordinary residential building of green color. Local authorities have installed a small building on the roof, measuring a couple of square meters. That’s where Carlson lives.
Everyone can go up to the roof of Carlson’s house. The inside of the house is a real mess — everything is turned upside down. An unmade crib, a pile of toys, a cluttered desk — this is exactly the home of a “man in the prime of life.” By the way, the window of the house offers a stunning view of the whole of Stockholm.
