Where the 120-kilometrelong<br />
Lake Mälaren – Sweden’s<br />
third-largest lake – A<br />
meets the Baltic Sea lies<br />
Stockholm, the capital of<br />
this northern kingdom.<br />
B<br />
Stockholm spreads across<br />
14 islands connected by 53<br />
bridges. Each of the islands<br />
C<br />
has its own character and<br />
contributes to the compelling<br />
charm of the Swedish capital,<br />
which is sometimes also re- D<br />
ferred to as the “Venice of the<br />
North”. During the Christmas<br />
season, the coastal city is<br />
resplendent in a sea of glitter- E<br />
ing lights. Christmas markets<br />
invite visitors to stroll through<br />
the streets and listen to the<br />
singing of Lucia, the Swedish Queen of Light. Gamla Stan,<br />
Stockholm’s Old City located on the shores of the Baltic on the<br />
island of Stadsholmen, boasts the majestic Baroque “Three<br />
Crowns” royal palace. This is the official residence of the<br />
Swedish monarchy and one of the country’s most impressive<br />
attractions. Immediately behind the palace is a romantic<br />
labyrinth of narrow, winding cobbled streets. Besides count -<br />
less souvenir shops, this is a veritable treasure trove of discovery;<br />
the historical buildings of the Gamla Stan house myriad<br />
attractive antique shops, art galleries and cosy cafés.<br />
The park island Djurgården accommodates the Skansen openair<br />
museum. Here, visitors can experience 19th century Sweden:<br />
some 150 typical Swedish buildings from all over the<br />
country have been brought here and turned into a miniature,<br />

self-contained town featuring houses, a school, a post office<br />
and a church. Glass blowers, potters and tinplate workers<br />
demonstrate their handicrafts. The adjacent zoological park is<br />
home to a wide variety of nordic fauna such as wolves, bears<br />
and – of course – elks.<br />
And if 14 islands aren’t enough, visitors can take one of the<br />
many “skerry cruisers” through the Stockholm Archipelago.<br />
Nearly 30,000 craggy rocks and islands, most of them uninhabited,<br />
form a fascinating maritime landscape. Idyllic sandy<br />
beaches provide a backdrop for numerous winter festivals. This<br />
is the ideal place to leave the big city life behind for a while and<br />
relax. And those who crave parties, entertainment and a touch<br />
of seafaring romance can experience the city from the deck of<br />
one of the luxury Baltic ferries to Helsinki or Tallinn. K. S.<br />
