Sightseeing
Fjällgatan
FjällgatanOne of the best views over Stockholm. Buy an icecream and enjoy.
Old Town is Stockholm's medieval city core with houses dating from the 1200s and narrow alleys. Lots of restaurants and bars and of course a lot of touristy shops, but also a lot of nice boutiques and stores selling everything from comic books to wool garments. Västerlånggatan is the most crowded, but Österlånggatan is equally nice and there you'll also find Den Gyldene Freden, a restaurant dating hundreds of years back, owned by the now infamous Swedish Academy.
