About Stockholm
City overview
Stockholm is the Swedish capital spread over 14 islands where Lake Malaren meets the Baltic, so bridges, ferries, metro art, and waterfront walks are part of the city rather than side trips. Gamla Stan, Norrmalm, Sodermalm, Ostermalm, Djurgarden, and Vasastan give the city its range from medieval lanes to design shops, museums, food halls, and long Nordic light.
Food & drink
Stockholm food is fika, seafood, and husmanskost: meatballs come with lingonberries and potatoes, gravlax cures salmon with dill, pickled herring anchors smorgasbord tables, toast Skagen piles shrimp salad onto toast, and Jansson's temptation bakes potatoes with sprats or anchovy-style fish. Ostermalms Saluhall, Hotorgshallen, Sodermalm bakeries, Gamla Stan cellars, and waterfront Djurgarden cafes add cardamom buns, princess cake, and strong coffee for fika.
