Stockholm is a living city of water, design and music. Here, the embankments are adjacent to cozy courtyards, and museums - with parks. The route “Stockholm: between Vikings and ABBA” begins at the Photographyska Museum of Photography, where a wide panorama opens from the windows; then — climb the Katarina Elevator, coffee and cake at Fika & Wine, walk through the main square of the Old Town, visit to the Cathedral of St. Nicholas and the Crown Palace, then along the water — to Stockholm City Hall, the Royal Garden, museums and the green Jurhorden with Scansen. Three stops that fall in love: - Vasa Museum. The only near-complete seventeenth-century ship in the world to have sunk on its maiden voyage and was raised three centuries later. The carved figures and sixty-four cannons make an impression. - ABBA Museum. Interactive halls: sing on stage, record your own version of the hit, peek into a room with the quartet's iconic costumes. - Historical Museum of Sweden. Viking silver treasures, a runic courtyard and living stories of the hikes, crafts and beliefs of the north. Interesting fact: Stockholm is located on fourteen islands connected by more than fifty bridges - so water almost always accompanies during the walk. Ready to combine footage, legends and songs in one day? This route is just for that.
