Parks & gardens in Stockholm
There are few cities in the world that offer so much world class nature in the greater city area. Stockholm thrives on it's green areas and every single person has their favorite spot to pass the time. Picnicking, reading or an afternoon nap are all on the list of things you can do to pass the time in these beautiful places. Some are located in the centre of the city and some just outside. Whichever you prefer you're guaranteed a relaxing time. You might even pick up some culture to boot, many of the city's parks are full of statues and important buildings so who's to say you wasted your day in a park? You were experiencing the culture! Note: if you're traveling in the winter we suggest a warm coat, it can get a bit nippy out.
