The capital of Sweden is situated on several islands and peninsulas between Lake Mälaren and the Baltic Sea. The city is dominated by many bridges and crystal-clear channels of water. The theatres, libraries and museums, as well as the royal opera house mean Stockholm is a cosmopolitan city and the cultural centre of the country. The heart of Stockholm is the old town of Gamla Stan with its historic façades and medieval arches. Tip: at the weekend try the clubs near the royal gardens.
