Gamla Stan, Stockholm Overview

The Old Town of Stockholm, the city's first neighborhood, is a rustic and beautiful place. It has places for shopping, various art galleries, and churches, and in general, it is a great place to spend your evening just walking and exploring. It is an absolute tourist favorite.

The old town is always lively, with it's narrow alleys and stony streets full of people, engaged in their own private activities. It is home to some beautiful churches and museums, like the Stockholm Cathedral and the Nobel Museum. The Royal Palace too is found here in Gamla Stan, and is by far the busiest attraction of the district. It is one of the largest palaces in Europe, and it is open to the public, with parts of it converted into museums. It is full of restaurants and cafes, galleries, shops, not to forget the Riddarholm Church, the burial ground of the Swedish Monarchs.
