Stockholm is not only Sweden’s capital city, but also the largest city in Scandinavia. It offers some of the most stunning scenery which is provided by the archipelago of 14 islands across which it is spread. More than 30 per cent of the total city area is comprised of water, while parks and greenbelt areas make up another 30 per cent making the city arguably one of the world’s richest in terms of its supply of clean, fresh air. 

Gamla Stan, Stockholm’s Old Town, is a maze of traditional cobbled streets and alleyways with fascinating architecture and historic constructions; it’s also the city’s epicentre with an abundance of places to stay, eat or be entertained. Visitors will probably find themselves spending a good deal of time in this part of the city.
