You are not mistaken, the Drottningholm Palace is considered as one of the finest example of Royal ... Read the Post

Lake Castle in Sweden
Läckö slott is a medieval castle located on Kållandsö island on Lake Vänern. Intuitively, one may not think of Sweden as a land filled with medieval castle. I surely didn't think I would be visiting a castle like Läckö castle, when I started planning my road trip in Sweden. ... Read the Post

Visit Skogskyrkogården: the Woodland Cemetery
It was a beautiful day in Stockholm when we decided to visit Skogskyrkogården, the Woodland Cemetery located just a little South of the city.
