Ifo Center is a culture project initiated by artists in one of Sweden's oldest ceramic factory areas. The factory area has been totally closed to outsiders for decades, but select parts can now be visited through Ifo Center's guided tours. Please note that to get inside the still active factory area, visit the artist studios and various on-going projects of the collective you will need to book a tour in advance. In the tour you get to go behind the fence and barbed wire. Your guide will share the story of Ifo Center and the Outdoor Gallery, with amazing artwork by international street artists, tell you all about how it all started, and give you the scoop on Europe´s largest stoneware fountain "Scanisaurus" - depicting two live sized ceramic dinosaurs. For the finish you will be served Swedish "fika" and the local speciality "Bromollagomma", pimped out with fresh forrest berries. If you cant attend a guided tour, Ifo Center Art Hall can still be visited (free) & some art seen outside.

This is a beautifully built cathedral. It is worth a visit with a day trip from Malmo. The interior of the cathedral is beautiful and you can visit the basement of the church as well. A must visit when in Lund.

Charming area that’s paved with natural stones with a nice variety of restaurants and shops. A couple of the restaurants are busy year round (especially in summer) as they have ample outdoor seating.. Nicely decorated with plenty of lights during the holiday season. (Don’t miss the oversized lamp) About 10 minutes walk from Malmo C & easy to find & close to the Stortorget. Great for a drink or meal in the square.

From here you have an excellent view. You can also walk down to the small light house at the tip of the rocks and enjoy some trails nearby. There are also some caves you can get to by foot.

Reviewed By LisaB157 - La Jolla, United States
Visited from Copenhagen with a traveling art group, a two hour bus ride but well worth it. In the words of its website “Wanås is a place in the world where art, nature, and history meet. It consists of a sculpture park and an art gallery as well as a medieval castle and an organic farm.” Lovely, spacious and delicious restaurant where even the butter is wonderful. If you are nearby, don’t miss it! Plan to spend at least 3 hours.

I just happened to read about Ales Stenar a few days before departing on a trip from Vestfold, Norway to Poland via ferry from Ystad, Sweden. Ales Stenar is about 15 kms east of Ystad, close to a cozy little fishing village called Löderup. It is a brisk uphill walk from Löderup to the top of a large open meadow where the stones are situated. When you reach a certain point, you see the outline of the stones against the sky. Very majestic. The vast meadow reaches southwards to high cliffs that tumble down to the Baltic Sea. Several folks showed up shortly before sundown to get the ultimate Ales Stenar experience. It is a powerful place and a must see if you are in the area.
