Gamla Stan
Stockholm's Old Town, or Gamla Stan as it is known in Swedish, is one of the largest surviving medieval districts in Europe and Stockholm's most important historical landmark.
Walking through it, you plunge headlong into the atmosphere of unique and inimitable architectural structures, cathedrals, monuments and sculptures that have preserved the memory of many historical events, secrets and mysteries, amazing stories and amazing facts about Stockholm.
City Hall
Stockholm City Hall is certainly one of the main tourist attractions in Stockholm, a symbol of the Swedish capital. The town hall hosts meetings of city authorities, important political negotiations, and the banquet after the presentation of the Nobel Prizes is held in its Golden and Blue Halls every year on December 10th. 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 in the town hall there are daily excursions in Swedish and English; it is also possible to order excursions in Russian. In addition, the observation deck of the 106-meter tower of the city hall offers a magnificent panorama of Stockholm.
Stockholm Metro
The Stockholm metro can rightfully be considered a real museum; most tourists perceive it as a tourist attraction. It is known all over the world due to its unique design. Many travelers who have been here call the metro a real art gallery. Here you can see amazing grottoes, ancient Greek sculptures, classical architectural works, wall reliefs, mosaics, pop art and fountains. Often underground stations become venues for exhibitions. During this time, visitors have the opportunity to enjoy the works of hundreds of talented artists.
ABBA Museum
The island of Djurgården is home to Stockholm's newest and most interactive museum, a museum dedicated to one of Sweden's most famous bands, ABBA. The exhibition, as you might guess, includes personal belongings, brilliant 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 along with your idols or try yourself as a sound engineer. And, of course, here you can simply dance to the fiery music of ABBA.
Carlson's House
Probably every adult and child knows that Carlson, the Kid’s best friend, lives in Stockholm. To get to this magical house, you need to get to the Vazastan district, where the famous writer lived. This is an ordinary green residential building. Local authorities installed a small structure on the roof, measuring a couple of square meters. This is 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 his life.” By the way, from the window of the house there is a simply stunning view of the whole of Stockholm.
