Great collection of watercolour & oil paintings from Anders Zorn’s travels. Very interesting to see how he used photography as a notebook but also to paint from directly.

We did the underground tour. Warning: it’s cold, can be a bit wet and muddy, so dress appropriately to fully enjoy the tour, which lasted about an hour. They give you helmets and plastic capes to protect you. I saw a lady in a short skirt, no tights, and nice low shoes. I’d be surprised if she ensued the tour down. Book ahead to avoid disappointment t. The area is big with something to suit everyone; interactive and descriptive museum, souvenir shop, cafe/restaurants in and around the area. A small train runs in the area, and I guess it especially attracts the smaller ones If you’re into walking, you can walk around the whole “hole”

The Zorn House is one of the most well-known artist homes in Sweden. Built and decorated around the turn of last century by Anders and Emma Zorn, it remains today almost untouched since their time. Already in 1886, Zorn had acquired a vacant lot near Mora church and moved a small wooden house to the property, which became the nucleus for the couple’s Mora home. Designed by the artist himself, the structure combined local timberwork traditions with the architecture of English houses and Zorn’s conception of Viking-era dwellings – simultaneously rustic and refined, grand and cozy. Artistic craftwork from Dalarna mixed boldly with items of great value acquired from abroad: woven tapestries, silver pieces, antique sculptures, and paintings by old masters. Behind the rather discreet facade was a home equipped with every conceivable luxury: refrigeration, stainless-steel kitchen counters, central heating, hot and cold running water, even a vacuum cleaner.

Travelling from Copenhagen then we have been skiing in several of the skiing resorts in the area - and we prefer Romme. The area is of a good size for a few days of skiing, everything running smoothly from liftcards to restaurants and it is simply just a pleasure to visit. It might not offer sufficient challenge to really experienced skiers, but for danes, then it is great.

Went here mid July! Not so much for the Christmas feel but rather for some fairytale magic. The park exceeded our expectations. My 7 year old loved the stories and shows and my 11 year old who finds everything “uncool” was smiling. For my 1 year old it was a fun place and mom and dad was happy it was all well managed and family friendly. We are planning to come back for the winter to see it in snow. Advice, come as it opens as the storyline follows the day. Also most shows are in Swedish so non Swedish speaking may miss out on part of the details

Housed at the Wasa Fjällgård Hotel in Salen, I dedicated the 24th of December to the ice rink, Skistar Salen. Quite close to Salen, it was easy to find a house that provided us with all the equipment to practice Ski for a very reasonable price. Arriving to sky lane and equipped, we climbed the elevators and tried to give the least number of falls, even in the easier lane. It's "painful" to see 3/4 year old kids passing us by at speed .... We ended up sore and hungry at Mac Donalds. Great Day !!

We were lucky to stay close to Leksand for a few days. We stumbled upon this brand just by accident and became to love it very quickly. This factory store here has all the variations of their Knäckebröd. All prices are lower than in the stores. And if you really wanna safe money, then you should get some of their "broken" products that can't be sold in the stores (the flavour's all fine, they are just broken pieces). Besides Knäckebröd they sell some other swedish specialties as well. Don't miss out on the unusual but tasty Knäckebröd Pizza - outside at the food counter or as a frozen product. Good stuff! Besides the regular Knäckebröd you really should give the special ones a try. We loved the "Havssalt Frön" the most. Great with cheese or butter as well. It's a really popular place. And for good reason. Great products, good prices.
