Things to do in Stockholm, Stockholm County: The Best Neighborhoods
The capital city of Sweden combines modern attractions with historic charm. Kick off your stay with visits to Stockholm’s two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Royal Palace Drottningholm (the residence of the royal family) and the magical Skogskyrkogården, or Woodland Cemetery. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Town and over the picturesque bridges that span the city’s canals. The 19th-century Skansen was the world’s first open-air museum and is still a premier place to learn about Swedish history.

1. Stockholm Old Town
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 20,321 reviews
The Old Town, unsurprisingly, is the oldest part of Stockholm. It's certainly the tourist's go-to destination, but that doesn’t detract from its architectural and otherwise urban beauty.

Cobble streets, quirky nooks and crannies, good mix of shops bars, cafes and beautiful buildings and museums, we stayed within Gamla Stan and very glad we did, easy access from there to everywhere and lots of museums worth walking to nearby. Definitely worth trying to stay within Gamla Stan area. We stayed in small scandic hotel which was located just at one end of Gamla Stan.

A very nice part of town. Lots of nice old houses to watch, especially att "Fjällgatan" and around Katarina church. A lot of nice pubs and restaurants. Check out the pub "Oliver Twist", good food and a good range of beers.
