Stockholm is the capital of Sweden, spread across 14 islands connected by more than 50 bridges. Often referred to as the “Venice of the North,” its most iconic area is Gamla Stan (Old Town) with narrow streets, colorful houses, and the Royal Palace. Stockholm is the cultural and economic heart of the country, home to museums such as the Vasa Museum and the ABBA Museum. It also serves as the gateway to the Stockholm Archipelago, with thousands of islands.
