 Haga Park |
hagaparken Stockholm Sweden +46 (0)8 5082 8500 (Stockholm turistbyra) |
During the 1780s King Gustav III acquired the Haga and Brahelund properties just north of the city. Aided by architect Fredrik Magnus Piper, he started to create a romantic landscape. The park was set out as woodland, and adhered to a rigid layout in the style of an English park. Several buildings and pavilions were built in the park, such as the Turkish Pavilion and Gustav III's Pavilion. The foundations of a magnificent palace were also laid. The King's intention was to place his collection of antique Roman statues in the galleries of the new palace. However, with the assassination of Gustav III in 1792, the French architect Louis Jean Deprez never finished the Museum Palace. The ruins of Haga are still there to be seen. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Preserved 17th century ship |
Galärvarvsvägen 14 Stockholm 11521 Sweden +46 (0)8 5195 4800 http://www.vasamuseet.se |
In 1628, the highly-decorated warship, Vasa sailed from Stockholm on her anticipated maiden voyage and sank. However, three centuries later, in 1961, Vasa was discovered and salvaged, and is now the world's only preserved 17th-century ship. It has now been converted into a museum. The cleverly constructed museum allows you to view it from six levels. The history of the ship is documented with slide shows, movies and exhibitions. Information is available in 10 different languages. Check the website for admission prices and other details. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Maritime setup in medieval surroundings |
Lilla Nygatan 5 Stockholm 111 28 Sweden +46 (0)8 5064 0000 http://www.victory-hotel.se |
This family—owned hotel was named after Lord Nelson's flagship HMS Victory. The hotel follows the maritime theme and has quite a few antiques. Nelson and Lady Hamilton's love story unravelled in this very place many years ago. One of their love letters is displayed in the lobby. Restaurant Leijontornet is located in the ruins of the Lion Tower (part of Stockholm's defence fortress from the 14th century), in the same building. All rooms are adorned with the portrait of a ship's captain from the turn of the last century. Shipbroker rooms are equipped with a Bang & Olufsen stereo system, and a CD library can be found at the reception. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Beautiful Locale |
Djurgårdsbrunnsvägen 10 Stockholm 115 27 Sweden +46 (0)8 665 0300 http://www.kallhagen.se |
On the way to Djurgården, by the water in the green oasis, lies this exquisite little hotel. It is only one-storey high with beautifully decorated rooms, a bar and an award-winning restaurant. Regular buses are available to the city centre. But rather than the bus, a walk along the waterfront to the city centre is highly recommended. Review © 2007, Wcities |
