View from Karl XII:s Torg

Facing north: The southern part of the Kungsträdgården park is called the square of Karl XII and is named after the statue of this young warrior king who lived between 1682 and 1718, when he died on the battlefield.

Facing northwest: West of the square is Jacobs Kyrka from 1643, the church of St James - patron saint of wayfarers.

Facing southwest: In the southwest corner you see the back of the Royal Opera which houses one of the most famous restaurants in Scandinavia, Operakällaren - the Opera Cellar. This culinary paradise for gourmet food has been around since since 1787. There are also more casual places, the Café Opera, the Opera Bar and Bakfickan.

Facing south: From this point you can look across the water towards the Skeppsholmsbron bridge, the Old Town and the Royal Palace. The sightseeing boats for the Djurgården tour leave from the foot of the Strömbron bridge.
