What makes Stockholm City Private Walking Tour a unique experience ?
Sergels Torg, (Sergels Square) is the core of the city centre of Stockholm. It is placed between the shopping and financial district of the city. The square is used for a wide variety of things: meeting friends, political demonstrations and events.
Stockholm Concert Hall, where the King of Sweden awards the Nobel Prize on December 10th is located on Hötorget (The Haymarket Square) which is during daytime the site of a fruit, vegetable and flower market, except Sundays, when a flea market is arranged in its place.
Olof Palme, former Prime Minister of Sweden, was tragically assassinated in Sveavägen in 1986. He was walking home from the Cinema with his wife when his life tragically came to an end, by whom is still a mystery today.
The two towers known as Kungstornen (The King's Towers), individually named Norra Kungstornet (The Northern King’s Tower) and Södra Kungstornet (The Southern King’s Tower), are considered the first modern skyscrapers in Europe. From here, enjoy a great view of Kunsggatan, once known as the "Broadway of Stockholm."
Stureplan is the meeting point of Östermalm, the city’s upper-class area. It is where Stockholmers enjoy shopping and nightlife as many exclusive shops, restaurants and nightclubs are found along both Birger Jarlsgatan and Biblioteksgatan.
Biblioteksgatan, The Library Street, is, in fact, the most fashionable shopping street in the city. It houses the Royal Library on one end and international and Swedish brands on the other.
The term “Stockholm syndrome” is named after a bank robbery that took place at Norrmalmstorg in the 1970s. Stockholm syndrome is a term used in psychology to describe a paradoxical psychological phenomenon wherein hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors.
The Royal Dramatic Theatre (Dramaten) is Sweden’s national stage for “spoken drama.” It has been located here since the early 1900s and was built in the Art Nouveau style. Famous Swedes associated with Dramaten include Ingmar Bergman, Stellan and Alexander Skarsgård, Peter Stormare, and Lena Ohlin, to name but a few!
Raoul Wallenbergs torg is dedicated to a Swedish diplomat who sacrificed his life to save Jews who were fleeing during the Holocaust.
Kungsträdgården (The King's Garden) is colloquially known as Kungsan. This is one of the city’s main meeting points, with a history that dates back to the 1400s. It offers something for all seasons.
