Stockholm – The Capital of Scandinavia
Built on 14 islands around one of Europe’s largest and best-preserved medieval city centuries, the Swedish capital is superbly positioned, with stunning and extremely varied scenery in every direction. Stockholm offers a several museums, theaters, sights, attractions and events, whether you’re interested in history, art, opera, modern dance, traditional handicraft, contemporary design or anything else. Stockholm is a very diverse city with something for everyone.
You can stroll around in “Old Town” with buildings from the 1300’s.
Or admire the contemporary architecture.
The talk of the town right now is the grand opening of “ABBA – The Museum” which opens in June 2009 but tickets are already on sale! 6,500 square meters (70,000 square foot) on four levels, featuring everything about on the the biggest Swedish icons – ABBA. http://www.abbamuseum.com/index.php?lang=1
