GUIDE 2013 STOCKHOLM NEWS 2013! ABBA THE MUSEUM WORLD CLASS SHOPPING HOURS THE BEST 24 OF STOCKHOLM BIG CITY OUTDOOR LIFE WELCOME TO STOCKHOLM DISCOVER STOCKHOLM one of the world’s most beautiful cities! Stockholm is the city of green and blue. This is where sea meets lake. A big part of the city is covered by green open spaces, and a peaceful park is never far away. Stockholm is built on fourteen islands, linked together by 57 bridges and the presence of water is always tangible. You can feel it in the air and see it reflected in the light. It’s easy to move between the different parts of the city and many of its attractions can be reached on foot. Stockholm is both pulse and tranquility. But the best thing about the city is perhaps its beauty and architecture. To enjoy the lush greenery during a walk on the island of Royal Djurgården, to discover the archipelago a warm summer’s day or watch the sun rising above the sea a fall day as the fog lifts. Or to wander in alleys covered by snow in the Old Town and feel the smell from the Christmas market at Stortorget – it’s magic. Stockholm shows many different faces depending on the season. But they are all equally beautiful. Welcome to discover our city!
