Want to know some of the standout things to do in Stockholm? Then have a look through our handpicked suggestions below...
1. Kungliga Stottet
At the heart of the Gamla Stan (Old Town), Kungliga Stottet is the world’s largest royal palace, and certainly one of the most beautiful. Amongst over 600 rooms, the lavish Royal Apartments stand out.
2. Fika in the Morning
Basically a pleasant coffee ritual, the 'fika' is a cornerstone of day-to-day life in Sweden. Right across the capital there are any number of excellent coffee shops to choose from.
3. Settle into Sodermalm for the Night
With Folkungagatan and Medborgarplatsen to the fore, Sodermalm is the bohemian quarter and center of Stockholm nightlife. Hip bars and clubs are plentiful, with a cluster of places on Gotgatsbacken particularly lively.
4. Don't Miss out on the 'Dagens ratt'
Stockholm is never going to be the cheapest travel destination. However, if you make the most of the 'Dagens ratt' or ’dish of the day’, that most restaurants offer, you can eat a good, hot meal that won’t totally dismantle your budget.
5. Do the Djurgarden
The Djurgarden appeals on a variety of different levels: It’s got a pleasant forested area of parkland; it’s home to Stockholm University (and an array of cheap bars)… It even has an amusement park at Grona Lund with amazing sea views from many of its rides!
