Welcome to the beautiful city of Stockholm, made up of 14 islands, 57 bridges and a whole lot of character. Experience the perfect mixture of modernity with tranquility that feels like a breath of fresh air.
Start in the neighborhood of So¨dermalm, a creative and trendy area where you’ll find vintage stores, eclectic stores and boutique Swedish fashion. Keep an eye open for the immaculate looking Stockholm hipsters who meet here in the swish cafes.
The next neighborhood we discover is Gamla Stan, also known as the old town. This is one of the best preserved medieval city centers in Europe and is actually where Stockholm was founded in 1252. The whole area is like a real life museum, full of cobbled streets and ancient architecture. Look out for the notorious Royal Palace. From here, we’ll make our way to Norrmalm, the city centre full of Stockholm department stores and the more affordable highstreet shops. During spring time note how the Kungsträdgården is full of magical pink cherry blossom.
Pass through the post residential area of Östermalm, which strangely has the highest amount of nightclubs. Meander through the Östermalmshallen market hall, contemplating all the colourful, fresh food.
And of course, our final stop is Djurgården often described as a relaxing oasis that has been owned by Royalty since the 15th Century. Here we’ll visit The Vasa Ship museum, the most visited museum in Scandinavia. Learn about the tragic event that took place in 1628 but is now visible for you to see 98% intact.
Experience Stockholm by foot - all the main sights plus some secret gems! Stockholm Our Way invites you to take a walk on Stockholm’s wilder side – there is a lot more to Stockholm than just water and bridges! With 750 years of history the city is never short of a story to tell.
SoFo (South of Folkungatan), is a play on the acronym SoHo (South of Hous¬ton Street, in Manhattan), one of the coolest districts in the world according Vogue. Today it is known as the trendiest area in Stockholm. Resembling is to New York’s Brooklyn and London’s Shoreditch, and home to Stockholm’s hipsters, fashion brands, vintage shops and fabulous restaurants and cafés. SoFo is where we will finish.
Starting from the beginning, Södermalm is where we placed people when we ran out of space in the Old Town. It holds a lot of great, but horrific history, beautiful views and as if that weren’t enough, it is also the home of Lisbeth Salander & Mikael Blomqvist, where the now world famous Millennium trilogy all started.
Before we take you to SoFo, we will journey through history, witch trails,
executions, the life of the working class, all leading us up to today’s Latte Mums’s & Sourdough Dad’s.
