Discount destination Stockholm has an abundance of parks and fascinating museums, a rich cultural life and many excellent restaurants. Discount destination Stockholm was founded in the 13th century and now has some 1.6 million inhabitants, including the metropolitan area. In Gamla Stan, or the Old Town, most buildings date from the 16th to the 19th centuries and house a variety of cafés, restaurants, museums, hotels and shops, in addition to the Royal Palace (pictured here).

A lot of people visit the Vasa Museum - housing the 17th-century Royal warship Vasa, which sank 1628 and was salvaged in 1961. Also worth a visit is nearby Skansen, the world´s oldest and largest open-air folk museum complete with its own zoo displaying animals found in Sweden. Adjacent to Skansen is the Gröna Lund amusement park. Millesgården, home of sculptor Carl Milles (1875-1955) and Waldemarsudde, home of Prince Eugen (1865-1947) - the "Painter Prince" - are other nearby attractions.

Most of the town is brimming with people and food is quite amazing. You can find food ranging from Tunisian to Venetian all in two adjacent restaurants. Stockholm is built on many islands and thus there are canals and boats everywhere. Thus the best way to observe discount destination Stockholm is by boat and we were extremely happy to find a place that rent canoes and spent an hour paddling along the canals of Stockholm.
