It's also a vibrant, modern city, famous for producing sleek designs, edgy fashion and world-class nightclubs.</div><div class="copy--body">The old town, Gamla Stan, is a compact little maze of cobblestone streets apparently built for small, thin people with very sturdy ankles. </div><div class="copy--body">The stucco walls of its red, orange and vanilla buildings sag toward each other exhaustedly over countless souvenir shops and ice-cream parlours, while the Royal Palace crowns the tiny island. Just to the south of Gamla Stan is another island neighbourhood, Södermalm, where high waterfront hills are graced by lovely old residences and the main drags are lined with bohemian shops, art galleries and rollicking clubs. </div><div class="copy--body"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMq4bwQxbO2j9tmM5wjMdTKEU1mqoRIb-VCc-yFLiD9Iau2wY7GaqypGbJBQUFR-rbVHM-7bK81XdY2gd914tZif6cD-f2-VaMnDPuoKftvo6xRav5Rql6vIyVoBt1_AccHy2IIG_AL0Hr/s1600/Stockholm+Sweden+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="188" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMq4bwQxbO2j9tmM5wjMdTKEU1mqoRIb-VCc-yFLiD9Iau2wY7GaqypGbJBQUFR-rbVHM-7bK81XdY2gd914tZif6cD-f2-VaMnDPuoKftvo6xRav5Rql6vIyVoBt1_AccHy2IIG_AL0Hr/s320/Stockholm+Sweden+5.jpg" width="320" /></a>On the other side of Gamla Stan is the main city centre, a buzzing metropolis whose boutiques and restaurants can hold their own against just about any big city on the continent.</div><div class="copy--body">Surrounding all of this is every Stockholmer's pride and joy - the 24, 000 or so rocky islands that make up the archipelago <i>(skärgård). </i></div><div class="copy--body">Stockholmers themselves are almost uniformly polite and friendly, making travel both easy and rewarding. Around 16% of greater Stockholm's 1.2 million people are immigrants, which creates a much more multicultural and diverse cityscape than many travellers might expect.

Göteborg (pronounced something like 'yer-te-bor') is also known by its English name Gothenburg. It is Scandinavia's busiest port and has a continental outlook; its showpiece Kungsportsavenyn boulevard is often nicknamed the 'Champs Élysées', and the comparison is justified (in a low-key Nordic way). The cheerful, relaxed atmosphere is enhanced by the city's large student population.<br /><div class="mpuWrapper " id="mpuInContent"><div class="mpuInner"><div class="adContainer" id="adContainer_mpuInContent"><noscript>&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/click%3Bh%3Dv8/3d9e/3/0/%2a/k%3B251609923%3B4-0%3B1%3B56529921%3B4307-300/250%3B49546976/49540599/1%3B%3B%7Eokv%3D%3Bctt%3Deurope%3Bcnty%3Dsweden%3Bdest%3Dgoteborg%3Btnm%3Doverview%3Brsi%3DJ08781_10052%3Brsi%3DJ08781_10063%3Brsi%3DJ08781_10184%3Brsi%3DJ08781_10336%3Brsi%3DJ08781_10339%3Brsi%3DJ08781_10340%3B%7Esscs%3D%3fhttp://hotels.lonelyplanet.com?lpaffil=fbhh4"&gt;&lt;img src="" border="0" alt="" &gt;&lt;/a&gt;</noscript> <noscript> &lt;div&gt; &lt;a href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/2009.lonelyplanet/rest-of-site;dcopt=ist;ctt=europe;cnty=sweden;dest=goteborg;tnm=overview;sz=300x250;ord=123456789?"&gt; &lt;img src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/2009.lonelyplanet/rest-of-site;dcopt=ist;ctt=europe;cnty=sweden;dest=goteborg;tnm=overview;sz=300x250;ord=123456789?" alt="Advertising" width="300" height="250"/&gt; &lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </noscript> </div></div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2KZeRKlWwVzjajh6ikw8K7wSYOq1Lr04I6NF90zy74jLP_5zaWJXmSkLxuqgx-bGiBR69ePPbumuuJ-YEizL8EnzR8Am6cEFFL2cEtV052tuqrJosl1BRAp2p9RFT1tFORMLgNaRk6Mut/s1600/Goteborg+Sweden+27.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="128" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2KZeRKlWwVzjajh6ikw8K7wSYOq1Lr04I6NF90zy74jLP_5zaWJXmSkLxuqgx-bGiBR69ePPbumuuJ-YEizL8EnzR8Am6cEFFL2cEtV052tuqrJosl1BRAp2p9RFT1tFORMLgNaRk6Mut/s200/Goteborg+Sweden+27.jpg" width="200" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGXD-wxvmT3afqixv-RPpwO1JsHU_yj2autmil6d_pLthlwQ9p70v76gyOUMAcWRfJ9in8iH2TDEEf4YVwwbPS0Vuhe3sXojwqL6w-UlB8qV7eBmE8mwvtSiqeHhAT8PcGZ8nV_UIhXKTQ/s1600/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+13.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="132" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGXD-wxvmT3afqixv-RPpwO1JsHU_yj2autmil6d_pLthlwQ9p70v76gyOUMAcWRfJ9in8iH2TDEEf4YVwwbPS0Vuhe3sXojwqL6w-UlB8qV7eBmE8mwvtSiqeHhAT8PcGZ8nV_UIhXKTQ/s200/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+13.jpg" width="200" /></a>Scandinavia's largest amusement park, Liseberg, froths over with rollercoasters, ice creams and glittery lights, and the nearby Universeum is another wonder-world well worth exploring. Heritage sites and museums sprout from every street, from 17th-century fortresses to state-of-the-art 21st-century multimedia extravaganzas. A tremendous 10% of Göteborg is green space: take time out to stroll through its charming parks and gardens.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr1xFrMh1hxe9biAaLYNxfucD-jJl6m6wddPCUJobpixO0Qar4BvgBg1-8IhCYfUnAGZl6UZJwHkhtm5bdvR5ksEo4j6pin1AtzcrwZSEvXN7U9RTKo9ydT5i-83ewGneB3b-oXEXMIcng/s1600/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr1xFrMh1hxe9biAaLYNxfucD-jJl6m6wddPCUJobpixO0Qar4BvgBg1-8IhCYfUnAGZl6UZJwHkhtm5bdvR5ksEo4j6pin1AtzcrwZSEvXN7U9RTKo9ydT5i-83ewGneB3b-oXEXMIcng/s320/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+12.jpg" width="320" /></a>The Göta älv (Göta river) runs through the city: in sunny weather boat trips are a pure delight. You can easily escape westwards on the efficient tram system for a mellow island-hopping trip. Despite being a coastal city, the weather is good with high sunshine levels.<a class="pin toggleMap closed" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sweden/gotaland/goteborg#" id="pinToggleMap" style="display: block;"><span class="showMapText">Show in Lonely Planet</span></a><br /><div class="relatedLinks clearfix"><h3 class="themeHeading">More about Göteborg </h3><ul><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq9J6cegYiJ8Q6A2-ydJEMRSUH5jxQT6pHnXGpHlw9C3X_UWfr3-zSNrlk7Xa65oJFWIzo-I6xXycl4G2-vBz3JN6nHdaxeN8qbobUQEf1t0LBsZXOlcxW2D5QQV3ikw1VBbac6u05MIIr/s1600/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+19.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="262" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq9J6cegYiJ8Q6A2-ydJEMRSUH5jxQT6pHnXGpHlw9C3X_UWfr3-zSNrlk7Xa65oJFWIzo-I6xXycl4G2-vBz3JN6nHdaxeN8qbobUQEf1t0LBsZXOlcxW2D5QQV3ikw1VBbac6u05MIIr/s400/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+19.jpg" width="400" /></a><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sweden/gotaland/goteborg/transport/getting-there-away">Getting there & around <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sweden/gotaland/goteborg/practical-information/money-costs">Practical information <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sweden/gotaland/goteborg/history">History <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sweden/gotaland/goteborg/hotels?lpaffil=hotels-beta">Hotels</a></li></ul></div><div class="relatedLinks clearfix"><h3 class="themeHeading">Make it happen</h3><ul><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/shopSearch?q=g%C3%B6teborg%5E2+or+Sweden">Shop for travel guides</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sweden/gotaland/goteborg/hotels?lpaffil=hotels-beta">Search hotels</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/flights.do">Cheap flights</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/insurance.do">Travel insurance</a></li></ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghaIWS5uT-BuE4uEfAzWta75u883nUGN9d0gth5UH_EkNs9n8yWJhdkGavnsyKlhgJF5ncOghEyRLO9iMFRmUFmEyh-nyjdld03SyuEMAbet16vG2V0oDO07h18tAO9oFyw2we1Cz-Fw4W/s1600/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghaIWS5uT-BuE4uEfAzWta75u883nUGN9d0gth5UH_EkNs9n8yWJhdkGavnsyKlhgJF5ncOghEyRLO9iMFRmUFmEyh-nyjdld03SyuEMAbet16vG2V0oDO07h18tAO9oFyw2we1Cz-Fw4W/s640/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+2.jpg" width="640" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ8pOa_hZwCTHAHmFIOxeoPLWYGXvHFxYHnRmnXPMozWoBZ-K2iJZgBQRNVVZUFZfE5SWf53CvFcUa2wS48v-8YpGYO2eUCkKBWpmjkCYtJxmaFwqkaAos0CGNwqOf5NPfj03hFIki5QUy/s1600/Goteborg+Sweden+25.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ8pOa_hZwCTHAHmFIOxeoPLWYGXvHFxYHnRmnXPMozWoBZ-K2iJZgBQRNVVZUFZfE5SWf53CvFcUa2wS48v-8YpGYO2eUCkKBWpmjkCYtJxmaFwqkaAos0CGNwqOf5NPfj03hFIki5QUy/s640/Goteborg+Sweden+25.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQafoHTP7VZaA5-FKRZuUVz7f3haY_f6gdY0eQkkJ_HCmUnnEoioBnoXrMmX2pygmRU6MA3rXvfHOWH9rXwb0WsxOB-gcCwN9i2WraBO4OXWKFktuAlSDo3uYj9ilB4zpg5S2s6RoEg7xI/s1600/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+5.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQafoHTP7VZaA5-FKRZuUVz7f3haY_f6gdY0eQkkJ_HCmUnnEoioBnoXrMmX2pygmRU6MA3rXvfHOWH9rXwb0WsxOB-gcCwN9i2WraBO4OXWKFktuAlSDo3uYj9ilB4zpg5S2s6RoEg7xI/s640/G%C3%B6teborg+Sweden+5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><h3 class="themeHeading"></h3></div></div></div>
