Our top picks in the local area…

For families

You could spend a whole day at Skansen open air museum and still not experience it all!  A favourite with visitors and locals, the museum is located on Royal Djurgården Island with staggering views across Stockholm. Incorporating Stockholm Zoo, this is the perfect family location for a picnic and boating activities, as well as learning about the history of Sweden.  The zoo houses native Scandinavian animals as well as the more exotic.  It is especially busy at Midsummer and Christmas celebrations and is not to be missed of any itinerary.

For romance

The Royal Palace in Stockholm is one of the largest Palaces in Europe with over 600 rooms.  The Palace was built in the 18th century to reflect the popular Italian Baroque style at that time.  The splendid rooms open to the public include the gilded Hall of State complete with a silver throne and the Halls of the Orders of Chivalry.  Wander hand in hand along the hallowed rooms and hallways and drink in the dreamy waterside views from the area.

For culture

For something different, hop on the underground and let your eyes feast on the unexpected artworks before you.  With 110km of lines, the Stockholm underground is said to be the world’s longest art exhibition. Over 90 of the city’s 100 stations have sculptures, mosaics, paintings, installations and engravings.  From the style of the 1950’s onwards, themes have developed over the passing years as artists add their own stamp to this unique underground system.

For shopping

Forget Ikea and head to Kommendörsgatan.  This street houses most of Stockholms antique dealers.  From rugs to jewellry, from art to furniture you could spend days here hunting for the one perfect, exquisite piece that is unique and just right for you.

For eating

The long, hard climb up the steep road to the Fåfängan café is worth it for the food, the views and the sunsets that await you when you make the effort to visit this Swedish institution.  Established in the 1700’s, it has been serving customers classic Swedish food and drinks in style ever since, but only when their flag is raised, indicating the cafe is open……catch it if you can!

For nightlife

Welcome to Stampen!  This classic, historical jazz club has been entertaining people for years.  Spread over 2 floors with 2 well stocked bars, Stampen is a popular nightspot for young and old alike.  With its eclectic mix of live music and friendly staff this is the hotspot to see and be seen at.
