Sassy Stockholm

Stockholm is my favourite city in Sweden.

Top 10 things to do in Stockholm

1. Millesgården. I was totally stunned when I saw all the beautiful statues. (visit only when the weather is nice)


2. Kaknästornet. The best view over Stockholm. Bring your camera to the 155 meter high tv-tower.


3. The royal castle. Go on sightseeing and buy royal tea in the royal shop.


4. The Absolut Ice Bar. Freezing but nice to have a drink in a glass made of ice (book in advance)


5. NK. The best department store, not to miss!


6. Boat sightseeing with lunch in the archipelago is nice in the summer


7. Liljevalchs, art museum with interesting exhibitions


8. Fika (have a coffe and cake) at Vetekatten. A small cosy bakery decorated as an old Swedish home


9. The old town with tourist shops and beautiful old houses
10. Chokladfabriken (The chocolate factory) is a great place for chocolate lovers. They have three shops in Stockholm. One of them is at Regeringsgatan, close to NK.
