The Old Town, unsurprisingly, is the oldest part of Stockholm. It's certainly the tourist's go-to destination, but that doesn’t detract from its architectural and otherwise urban beauty.
Cobble streets, quirky nooks and crannies, good mix of shops bars, cafes and beautiful buildings and museums, we stayed within Gamla Stan and very glad we did, easy access from there to everywhere and lots of museums worth walking to nearby. Definitely worth trying to stay within Gamla Stan area. We stayed in small scandic hotel which was located just at one end of Gamla Stan.

The Drottingholm Palace is a World Heritage Site because of its beauty and important history. It is comparable to Versailles. Check out the Court Theater and the Chinese Pavilion.
It is the private residence of the Swedish Royal Family, which is well preserved Royal Castle. It is surrounded by fantastic, well maintained gardens and fountains. Ideal for photos, picnics and afternoon tea.

Welcome to Millesgården - an oasis just 15 minutes from downtown Stockholm. Millesgården is an artist home, a vast sculpture park with flower beds and fountains, art gallery, restaurant, antique collection and a museum shop.
Awsome and really nice place to visit outside Stockholm on a spring day as well as summer day Well worth the 150sek admisson fee to enter. And to not only the out door statues, you have inside the art gallery as well. If you are hungry of just want some cofee or tea there is a smaller restaurant with easier food.

The Stockholm City Hall is one of Sweden's most famous buildings, and one of the capital's most visited tourist attractions. It houses offices for 200 people including the Municipal Council, and is also famous for its grand ceremonial halls and unique art pieces. The Stockholm City Hall is the venue of the Nobel Prize banquet held on 10 December each year. Between May and September, the City Hall Tower offers a breathtaking view of Stockholm.
There are two separate tours you can take at Stockholm City Hall (Stadshuset). They have separate entrances and separate prices. The tower tour entrance is on the left when inside the vilify hall courtyard and facing the lake. The city hall tour entrance is on the right. Both tours are worth taking but we enjoyed the tour of the tower the most. There are 365 steps to the tower viewing area. It is a very interesting and enjoyable climb, mostly up ramps that go up in a square shape, through brick walled corridors with triangular brick ceilings, around the perimeter walls of the tower. There are also some stairs and the option of an elevator to take you part of the way up. The 360 degree views from the viewing platform are spectacular. You get fantastic views of Gamla Stan and Riddarholmen. Tours are timed and one group must leave the platform before the next comes up. The main part of city hall is only accessible via paid guided tour. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and interesting. It is best to avoid Saturdays for tours as some areas are closed for multiple weddings on that day. The highlights are the huge Blue Room (which isn’t blue), the council chambers, the Prince’s Gallery (with beautiful frescoes) and the over-the-top Golden Hall with its elaborate gold mosaics depicting Swedish history.

Prince Eugen's Waldemarsudde, originally the home of Prince Eugen, is now among the most-visited art museums in Sweden. In the Mansion the Prince's Private Apartments remain mostly unchanged, while the two upper floors and the Gallery building are used for temporary exhibitions or for exhibiting works by the Prince or from his collections. The estate is set in a beautiful parkland, featuring centuries-old oak trees. Its situation by the inlet to Stockholm harbour presents the visitor with stunning views of the water. Welcome to Sweden's most beautiful art museum!
A few days ago,I visited this small ,cozy art museum in Stockholm's Djurgarden.This art museum was the home of Prince Eugene,a splendid Swedish painter .It has several fine paintings by Prince Eugene such as;"Winter Morning"and "Old Palace",among others.Swedish painters with delightful paintings in this art museum include Ernest Josephson("Goosegirl"),Anders Zorn("Faleuse"),Per Ekstrom,Nils Kreuger("Cows on the Beach"),Carl Hill("Path With Poplars")and Julius Kronberg("Sappho"),among others..I also saw quality paintings by Norwegian Painters,Lars Jorde and Gerhard Munthe. I also relished their fine temporary exhibit of oil paintings and watercolor paintings by Edward Bourne-Jones,the British Pre-Raphaelite Painter.This art museum is well serviced by Stockholm's Number 7 Tram.Seniors like myself receive a discount on their admission fee.
