On my Scandinavia trip in May and June 2004 I stayed 6 days in the royal Swedish capital Stockholm. It has about 750.000 inhabitants and is built on 14 islands.
Stockholm is a fabulous mixture of city life, green parks and water. The shores offer panoramic views of the city. Many historical buildings can be seen in the Old Town "Gamla Stan", whereas plenty of museums (e.g. Vasa Museum) and other sights (e.g. Telecommunications Tower) can be found in other parts of the city.
Stockholm has uncountable restaurants, cafes and pubs that I mainly explored with some other lovely VT members.
"The use of travelling is to regulate imagination by reality, and, instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are."

Gruetzi Holger! Thanks for your BD wishes. BBQ time is too early in Wallis... should close my Après ski season first (till end of April). You forget to mention the cow parade in Zürich. See you soon for a beer review @ Karlsruhe! | globetrott Fri Mar 14, 2008 17:21 UTC
An interesting page and great pics, Holger ! Vasa-museum is my favorite place and I hope to see it again this summer. LaudaAir is flying for 29 euros Vienna-Stockholm and they start this in May ! | ZiOOlek Thu Jan 10, 2008 21:39 UTC
