Gamla Stan
Neighborhood · Gamla Stan
Wear comfortable shoes with good grip, since the cobbles are tiring and can get slippery.
Stortorget
Historic site · Gamla Stan
Mårten Trotzigs gränd
Historic site · Gamla Stan
Narrow enough for a person to wedge between the two opposite walls.
Royal Palace (Kungliga slottet)
Palace · Gamla Stan
Changing of the Guard runs from April to the end of August at 12:15 daily and at 1:15 pm on Sundays; it is irregular in winter.
Stockholm Cathedral (Storkyrkan)
Temple · Gamla Stan
Gondolen
Restaurant · Södermalm
Fotografiska
Museum · Södermalm
The top-floor restaurant has a buffet with views; the squash soup and pork belly were amazing and affordable.

Reach it by ferry from Slussen, which is a great way to see the city even on a cold evening.
Gröna Lund
Activity · Djurgården · brief mention
ABBA The Museum
Museum · Djurgården
It gets busy in summer, so book a time slot online ahead; filming is not allowed in most of the museum.
Vikingaliv

There are few artifacts, but the guided tour is recommended, and the cafe upstairs is good for fika.
Vasa Museum
Museum · Djurgården
Nordic Museum (Nordiska museet)
Museum · Djurgården
Skansen
Museum · Djurgården
Rated the favourite of the four Djurgården museums visited; moose and wolverines are seen up close.

Neighborhood · Östermalm
National Library of Sweden (Kungliga biblioteket)
Museum · Östermalm
Not a place to spend long, but worth seeing for the building and the Codex Gigas.
Lucy's Flower Shop
Bar · Östermalm
The menu is short and every drink is worth it, including one with turmeric and milk; drinks in Sweden are very expensive.
Meatballs for the People
Restaurant · Södermalm
For the undecided, the Chef's Choice offers eight meatballs in two or four varieties.
Hornsgatan
Shopping · Södermalm
Norrmalm
Neighborhood · Norrmalm
Sergels torg
