Overview
Take a trip to Stockholm on your Sweden Vacation
The city of Stockholm stretches over 14 islands connected by 50 bridges on the southeast coast of Sweden, combining classical and modern architecture. Stockholm, or the Beauty on Water, is rich in culture and history and is a must-visit on any Sweden vacation.
Discover the heart of Stockholm in the Old Town, Gamla Stan, where the picturesque original 13th-century city centre with its cobblestone streets, alleyways, quaint shops, palaces, and several museums are waiting to share Stockholm's stories. You'll find the 600-room baroque-style official residence of the Royal Family, Stockholm Palace, in the Old Town. The beautifully preserved and outstanding Drottningholm Palace invites you to explore every corner, including the royal suites.
Stockholm City Hall is an attractive building and venue for the Nobel Peace Prize awards banquet with Scandinavia's largest pipe organ. Be sure not to overlook the Nobel Prize Museum dedicated to the history of the prestigious award amid this extravagance of cultural wonder. You'll earn a profound insight into the world-changing achievements as you walk through the museum's hallways, interacting with exhibits that seamlessly weave together the remarkable stories of Nobel laureates, displaying artifacts, personal belongings, and audiovisual presentations encapsulating the spirit and impact of their groundbreaking contributions to humanity. Engaging with these thought-provoking displays of the diverse fields recognized by the Nobel Prizes, from physics and chemistry to literature and peace, will foster a deeper appreciation for the transformative endeavours that have left an indelible mark on human history.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.
What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.
Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.
I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.
The Festes Majors are summer festivals held in the villages of Andorra. Each festival is unique to the village, with its own distinct style.
