Tourism in Stockholm

Stockholm is located on the west bank of the Baltic Sea, the capital of Sweden and the largest city, and also the largest city in Northern Europe. Located on the east coast of Sweden, near the Baltic Sea and where Lake Meralen enters the sea, it is a famous tourist attraction with beautiful scenery. The urban area is distributed on 14 islands and a peninsula, and more than 7 bridges connect these islands, so it enjoys the reputation of "Venice of the North". The downtown area of Stockholm is a part of Greater Stockholm. Since the 13th century, Stockholm has become the political, cultural, economic and transportation center of Sweden. As far as the building itself is concerned, Stockholm City Hall is a building with unique shape and gorgeous decoration. As far as the function itself is concerned, Stockholm City Hall is no different from other cities in Europe. It is the venue for municipal meetings and the office of the municipal government. However, it is also the place where the final ownership of Nobel Prizes is announced every year.

Stockholm City Hall was built on the bank of Meralen Lake in the center of the city. The construction period lasted from 1911 to 1923. The main body was built of red bricks, and the top of the bell tower towering on the right side was the golden crown representing Denmark, Sweden and Norway. This golden crown symbolizing the former Kalmar Union has also become the most frequently mentioned feature of the City Hall. There is a museum focusing on art exhibitions in the bell tower. The bell tower is 15 meters high. When you board it, you can get a good view of Stockholm.

The ballroom in the City Hall, known as the "Blue Room", is one of the most well-known halls in the City Hall. On December 1th every year, the Swedish king, queen and distinguished guests from all sides gather here to hold a grand dinner for this year's Nobel Prize winners. The splendid lights between the columns on both sides of the Blue Room and the blue light beams laid in front of it set off an elite gathering dinner atmosphere, and the Blue Room, which left many Nobel Prize winners, naturally had a unique style.

In addition to the Blue Hall, another ornate hall, the Golden Hall, is another famous place of the City Hall. Director Jin is 25 meters long, and the murals made of metal and stained glass in the hall are the most striking. These murals * * * cost 18 million pieces of metal and glass with a size of 1 square centimeter. The left and right walls take history as the theme, and the left wall narrates people and the right wall narrates people, respectively, showing the pirate times in Swedish history and other important figures in Swedish history. In the middle of the front wall is the legendary protector of the city-the statue of Lake Meralen. The left and right sides of the goddess' feet are all ethnic groups from Asia and Europe, which means that people everywhere regard Stockholm as their ideal place.

There is a wide square outside Stockholm City Hall, and beautiful flowers and trees are decorated with fountain sculptures to welcome every visitor here. Skansen Museum, located on the island of Ulgordon, is the most famous tourist attraction in Stockholm, showing people the past Swedish folk life from many angles. It covers an area of more than 3 hectares and has 15 houses. Among the houses, there are straw-topped wooden houses or brick houses in Sgney, southern Sweden, conical wooden houses of Lapp people in northern Sweden, spires and bell towers of churches, and so on.

The Skansen Museum was built in 1891. In the vast green forest, there are more than 1 farmhouses, churches and other buildings that have moved from all over Sweden. Here, we can see the traditional Swedish lifestyle and work, which can be said to be a living museum. This flavor of going back to the past is also revealed in the clothes of every interpreter in the park: white apron, plain white coat and hat, or wearing keys around the waist, or really feeding chickens, ducks and piglets outside the house, which is really like being in the last century. There are more museums in Scanson, the most representative of which are the postal museum and the tobacco museum. The collection is as exquisite as any independent museum. There are many exquisite reliefs on the four walls of the palace, and there is a big yard in the middle. The palace church and state hall in the south half que and the banquet hall in the north half que have maintained their original furnishings and are open to the public. In the magnificent hall of the palace, large portraits of kings and queens of past dynasties are hung on the walls, and the dome is decorated with magnetic burial, sculpture and gorgeous paintings. It is said that most of them came from German artists in the 17th century. Some rooms are also furnished with ancient chariot weapons, jewelry, gold and silver utensils and solid models of medieval knights with spears and bronze helmets and armor. The palace guards hold a grand changing ceremony at noon every day according to the ancient tradition. The changing guards wear gorgeous costumes and solemnly perform the changing procedures of the ancient tradition.

this is the place where the king works and holds celebrations, and it is also the main tourist attraction in Stockholm. The part of the palace that is open to the outside world includes: the royal residence, the collection museum in Gustav III, the treasure museum, the three crowns museum and the royal weapons museum. In the palace, you can visit all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, exquisite utensils, as well as exquisite murals and reliefs in the palace. -Vasamuseet(Vasa Museum) displays the 17th century warship Vasa, which was fished from the sea bottom. The Vasa warship was ordered to be built by Gustav Adolf II. At that time, Sweden was the target of the great powers. In order to guard against the invasion of neighboring countries, Gustav Adolf II ordered the construction of four warships, and Vasa was one of them. After it was completed in the spring of 1628, it made its maiden voyage in August. When it first set sail, it was sunny and everything was normal. However, after sailing for 1,3 meters, it was overturned by a big wind and waves, and it was accelerated by the weight of the ship. This sinking was in 333 years, and it was not until 1961 that the Swedish authorities ordered salvage. Although the sailing history is short, the Swedes still regard it as a national treasure, because it shows the Swedish shipbuilding technology and art in the 17th century, especially the wood carving skills on board are still admirable.

after more than 3 years of dark undersea years, the true meaning of the Vasa has been basically preserved. After more than 1 years of necessary restoration, the Vasa, 6.97 meters long, 11.68 meters wide and 52 meters high in the main mast, has almost completely recovered to the state when it sailed. However, this time it is no longer a weapon for the kingdom expedition, but a carrier for remembering history. With a flick of the hand of the years, the Vasa was left with more than a change of events. Queen Street is a famous commercial pedestrian street in Stockholm, where many big shops gather.

There are many storefronts in this street, including restaurants, cafes, food and clothing stores. Most tourists will spend some time shopping here freely. The Nordic Museum is located near the bridge leading to northern Europe in the eastern part of Uyeden District of Stockholm. This is a museum that shows the real life of Swedes. It truly shows the work and life scenes of Swedes from modern times to the present.

As early as 1872, the Swedish naturalist and founder of the Open-air Museum, Herselius, set out to build the museum, which was not officially completed until 197, 35 years later. The whole museum building has four floors, and the first floor exhibits Swedish agriculture, animal husbandry, fishing and other physical objects, including farmers' living rooms, daily utensils for fishing, hunting, farming and manual workshops, and the life picture of ethnic Lapu people. On the second floor, there are related articles and household furniture showing the strange customs of various places. There are various items on display on the third floor, including musical instruments, puppets, toys, clothes of upper-class figures, food and drinks, and folk handicrafts from Sweden and Norway. On the fourth floor, there is a furniture exhibition hall, which displays all kinds of furniture, such as Nordic Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo and Louis XVI, and there are as many as 25 exhibition rooms. Queen's Island Palace is a royal territory, 15 kilometers away from the city center. Because its construction was inspired by the Palace of Versailles in France, it is called "Versailles in Sweden" and is the first scenic spot in Sweden to be listed in the World Cultural Heritage List.

Its scenic spots include Queen's Island Palace, Palace Theatre, China Palace and Garden. Queen's Island Palace is the core of this royal territory.

the golden age of the theater was when Gustav III was in power, and then Gustav III was assassinated at the dance held in the theater, and the theater was closed. In 1922, it was renovated and re-performed as before, and now the theater still holds performances of classical plays. China Palace (Kina slott) consists of a palace and two pavilions, both inside and outside of which adopt the artistic styles of China and Asia. The Swedish parliament building is in the east of the palace in the old city. Even if you are just an ordinary citizen, you can come here to attend the debate on national politics.

Swedish children's political enlightenment is opened in this real political scene, which is much more intuitive and profound than being indoctrinated in political classes and textbooks. Prince Jurgen does not love power, but has a soft spot for art and culture, so he is called the artist-prince Eugen. As a member of the royal family, his rich family background has fulfilled his hobby of collecting art, and he is also an outstanding artist himself, as we can know from the murals in the city hall.

The prince's main collection and some of his works are now on display in the former residence museum. The garden of the former residence was built along the seaside highlands of the Baltic Sea, and there were 1 bronze replicas of world-famous sculptures in it, which were placed in front of the palace, among the flowers, under the shade of trees and beside the path. It was really pleasing to the eye!
