The capital city of Sweden combines modern attractions with historic charm. Kick off your stay with visits to Stockholm’s two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Royal Palace Drottningholm (the residence of the royal family) and the magical Skogskyrkogården, or Woodland Cemetery. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Town and over the picturesque bridges that span the city’s canals. The 19th-century Skansen was the world’s first open-air museum and is still a premier place to learn about Swedish history.

Obviously this statue by Carl Mills is amazing and well worth a look. It stands next to the flower market in Hotorget Square and don't forget to take a look across the square at the Haymarket Hotel - this was a department store where Greta Gorbo once worked in the hat department! Have a look inside!
