Played two of the new rooms in the new facility in centrum. The Holy Grail and Alice in Wonderland. The Holy Grail was a real challenge with so nice interiors and really nice theme and riddles. Alice in Wonderland really feels like an adventure and you really loose track of time. You feel like you are in the Wonderland, totally my favorite room of all I have played. Quality of both of the rooms really really great!

The Botanical Garden is one of Uppsala's most popular destinations. Here, you can enjoy the grandiose Baroque Garden, visit the 200 year old Orangery with its beautiful grand halls or find inspiration for home gardening among rockery plants, vegetables, summer plants and in the systemic quarters of woody plants. The Tropical Greenhouse is home to Uppsala's only rainforest! For open hours in the glass houses see web page.

6. Linnaeus' Hammarby
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 64 reviews
The small estate Hammarby, 15 km SE of Uppsala, was bought by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. He wanted a farm on the countryside where he could spend the summers together with his family, away from the unhealthy quarters of Uppsala. Today, few Swedish manor-houses preserve such an authentic milieu. It reflects the private life of Linnaeus as well as his scientific work.

This site, about 20 minutes outside of Uppsala, consists of several structures in which Linnaeus and his family spent their summers (and continued to live after Linnaeus died). The tour (you can book one in English) covers the main house and is quite informative; be sure to check out the other structures, including the little stone house up on the hill where Linnaeus moved his specimen collections to protect them from fire. Cafe on site has nice food that you can enjoy in the garden in summer - a nice way to spend a relaxing afternoon!

A visit to this nice playground is a must if you have small children. No entrance fees and just a joy for our youngest. Inspired by the tales of the author Gösta Knutsson and his books about the cat Pelle Svanslös and his friends that lived in Uppsala and the surroundings.
