Holm Sweet Holm


Stockholm is like no other city in Europe. With its turrets and spires, surrounded by lush forest, it often resembles a Swedish Camelot. It's one of Europe's most beautiful cities, spreading out over 14 islands, each connected by vaulting bridges. On some of the islands, steep cliffs rise from the water, atop which stand historic buildings untouched by the ravages of war for almost 200 years.

You'll find a seemingly endless variety of sights and activities in Stockholm, from its open-air museums to the Royal Dramatic Theater, the Milles Sculptures, and the mysterious flagship Wasa.
