Things To Do
Nordiska museet - Nordic Museum
Museum about Scandinavian culture throughout the ages, including furniture design timeline, nordic folk art, jewelry, dolls, food traditions, and so much more! Make sure to get the audio guide. Expect to spend several hours here!
Fotografiska - Photography gallery, bar, & restaurant
Modern/current photography gallery. Really really interesting photos and stories, best restaurant on the top floor with a focus on vegetables but options for adding meat. Beautiful view of the Stockholm archipelago and amusement park across the water. Make sure to call and book a table ahead of time! Be ready for a walk to get there as it may be difficult using just public transport, but highly worth it!
Högbyn Stora Aborrtjärn - Lake with boardwalks
Google maps says that this place is permanently closed. It used to be a ski ranch but the ski group has moved to another location but the lake is still available and many people come to fish here. The boardwalks are well-maintained. A great place to pick blueberries and go for a walk, picnic, grill. Many many grills here.
Vasa Museum
Historic ship that sank on its maiden voyage. Walk through the actual ship at the museum!
ABBA The Museum
Expect to spend 3+ hours here, there is so much to do and see. Great indoor activity if the weather is bad! Make sure to get the audio guide.
Skansen
Park, zoo, outdoor museum 1600's Sweden with historic houses, cottages, businesses (shoemaker, blacksmith, old-fashioned baker, glassblower, etc.) as well as gardens, petting zoo, and so much more!
