Free tours around Stockholm
Stockholm is a capital staying on 14 islands and connected with almost 60 bridges. However, Swedish capital is often called to be “World Smallest Large City”. The issue is that in spite of big population Stockholm is a close-together city. It is a bit narrow and suitable for going on foot.

Plan your route
There is a stereotype that a tourist should plan a trip to a new place. People usually find something incredible when they don’t plan it. Therefore here in Stockholm it can be more sensible to go for a free walking tour than to pay for a package one.
For example, it is a good idea to spend whole day in the Royal National park. It is hardly possible when you are on a bus tour around the capital. The park is incredibly calm and charming. If you want to reflect upon something – just do it here.
Do you have an idea what shows the glory of Stockholm better? There are seventy interesting museums open for all tourists. Everybody will be able to find something attractive particularly to him. History, arts, weapons, culture and many other topics will definitely amuse you.

Please, be aware that Swedish kids look like small nasty creatures going from door to door asking for candies. That is probably the most untypical Easter celebration.
Another nice great to understand Sweden better is to go for a crayfish party. This drinking and eating feast is held in August. People in Sweden love it and happily gather and socialize. That’s a great opportunity to make new friends among Stockholm inhabitants and get new impressions.
