Visiting Sweden

The capital of Sweden, Stockholm, spreads across 14 islands near the country's Southeastern coast. Stay in hotels in Stockholm and see such historic attractions as Riddarholm Church, a burial church for Swedish royals since the 17th century. With several hundred Stockholm hotels to choose from, there are great options for families and couples alike. Among some 100 local museums, you can discover the National Museum dedicated to Swedish arts and crafts and the Vasa Museum, a maritime museum with a 17th-century ship as its centerpiece. On the nearby island of Lovon is Drottningholm Palace, the Swedish royal family's private residence. If you travel east along the coast from Stockholm, you'll spot around 24,000 islands and islets that make up the Stockholm Archipelago. Explore its villages, towns, and lighthouses using taxi boats and ferries. Another top destination in the Southern region that's home to some of the best Sweden hotels is Lund, a historic city with an early 12th-century cathedral. Lund also features the Kulturen open-air museum that shows you how rural Swedes lived in past centuries. Around an hour south of Lund, the Foteviken Viking Reserve is a living-history museum comprising a reconstructed village of thatched and turf-roofed buildings.

Elsewhere, the medieval port town of Visby is one of many delightful destinations on Gotland, Sweden's largest island. Wander its car-free cobbled streets and see church ruins from the 12th to the 14th century. You could even venture to some of the Northernmost resorts in Sweden to ski or explore Lapland, home of Sweden's indigenous Sami people.
