「北のベネツィア」はメラレン湖からバルト海に点在する14の小さな島々です。スカンジナビア最大の都市、ストックホルムは、広い道、水辺の公園、数多くの歩行者道路を備えた世界でも最も優れた設計の都市の一つです。For a taste of the city, take a walking tour of Old Town, and particularly the Royal Palace and beautiful Riddarholm Church; take in the views from the observation deck in the Town Hall; or visit one of the Skeppsholmen Museums, including Skeppsholm Church (1842), the Museum of Architecture, the Museum of East Asian Art and the Modern Museum. A main attraction near the center of town is the Vasa Museum, on the island of Djurgården, displaying the almost fully intact 64-gun warship Vasa, that sank on her maiden voyage in 1628.
