Tourism in Stockholm

Located on the west bank of the Baltic Sea, Stockholm is the capital and largest city of Sweden and the largest city in Northern Europe. Located on the east coast of Sweden, near the Baltic Sea, it is the place where Lake Meralen flows into 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 70 bridges connect these islands, so it enjoys the reputation of "Venice in the North". The downtown area of Stockholm is a part of Greater Stockholm. Since13rd 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 unique and ornate building. 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 the Nobel Prize is announced every year.

Stockholm City Hall is built on the lake Meralen in the city center. The construction period lasts from 19 1 1 to 1923. The main body is made of red bricks, and the top of the bell tower on the right is a golden crown representing Denmark, Sweden and Norway. This golden crown, which symbolizes the former Kalmar Union, has also become the most frequently mentioned feature of the City Hall. There is a museum mainly devoted to art exhibitions in the bell tower. The bell tower is as high as105m. When you board it, you can see a panoramic view of Stockholm.

The banquet hall, known as the "blue hall" of the City Hall, is one of the most famous halls in the City Hall. Every year on 65438+February 10, the king and queen of Sweden gather here to hold a grand dinner for this year's Nobel Prize winners. The brilliant lights between the pillars on both sides of the blue hall and the blue beams laid in front of them set off the dinner atmosphere where elites gathered, which made many Nobel Prize winners linger.

Outside 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 colored glass in the hall are the most eye-catching. These murals cost 1 80,000 pieces of metal and glass with a size of1cm2. The left and right walls take history as the theme, the left wall narrates characters, and the right wall narrates characters, which respectively show various periods in Swedish history, such as the pirate era and 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 nationalities from Eurasia, which means that people everywhere regard Stockholm as their ideal place.

There is a wide square outside Stockholm City Hall, with beautiful flowers and trees dotted with fountain sculptures. Welcome every visitor here. The Scanson Museum, located on Ulgordon Island, 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 30 hectares and has 150 houses. There are straw-topped wooden houses or brick houses in Signy, southern Sweden, conical wooden houses of Lapps in northern Sweden, spires and bell towers of churches and so on.

Scanson Museum was built in 189 1. In the vast green forest, there are more than 100 buildings such as farmhouses and churches moved from all over Sweden. Here, we can see the traditional Swedish lifestyle and working conditions, which can be said to be a life museum. This taste of going back to the past is also revealed in the clothes of every commentator in the park: white apron, plain white coat and hat, or keys hanging around the waist, or really feeding chickens, ducks and piglets outside the house, really like being in the last century. There are many museums in Skansen, the most representative of which are the Postal Museum and the Tobacco Museum. The collection is as beautiful 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 national hall in the south half que and the banquet hall in the north half que kept their original furnishings and were 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 are German artists from17th century. Some rooms are also equipped with ancient chariot weapons, jewels, gold and silver vessels and mock-ups of medieval knights, who wear spears, bronze helmets and armor. According to the ancient tradition, the palace guards hold a grand changing ceremony at noon every day. The guards who changed their posts wore gorgeous costumes and solemnly carried out the old and traditional changing procedures.

This is the place where the king works and holds celebrations, and it is also the main tourist attraction in Stockholm. The palace is open to the outside world, including the Royal Residence, Gustav III Collection Museum, Treasures Museum, Sanguan Museum and Royal Weapons Museum. In the palace, you can visit all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, exquisite utensils, and exquisite murals and reliefs in the palace. -Vasamuseet (Vasa Museum) shows the17th century warship Vasa, which was salvaged from the bottom of the sea. The warship Vasa was built on the order of 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. 1628 was completed in the spring and made its maiden voyage in August. At first, it was sunny and everything was normal. However, after sailing 1300 meters, it was overturned by strong winds and waves and accelerated by the weight of the ship. The sinking was in 333, and it was not until 19 1 that the Swedish authorities ordered the salvage. Although the history of sailing is short, Swedes still regard it as a national treasure, because it shows Swedish shipbuilding technology and art in the17th century, especially the wood carving skills on board are still admirable.

After more than 300 years of darkness under the sea, the true meaning of Vasa has basically been preserved. After the necessary repairs in 10 years, the Vasa, with a length of 60.97 meters, a width of 1 1.68 meters and a main mast height of 52 meters, almost completely recovered to its sailing state. However, this time it is no longer a weapon of the kingdom expedition, but a monument of history. As the years passed, the Vasa left behind more than just the changes of events.

Queen's Island Palace is a royal territory, 0/5km away from the city center/kloc-.

Its attractions 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 (Slottsteatern) was when Gustav III was in office.

The Swedish parliament building is in the east of the old city palace. Even if you are just an ordinary citizen, you can come here to participate in the national debate.

Swedish children's political enlightenment is initiated in this real political scene, which is much more intuitive and profound than instilling it in political lessons and textbooks. Prince You Ergen does not love power, but has a special liking for art and culture, so he is called the artist-Prince You Ergen. As a member of the royal family, his rich family background has contributed to his hobby of collecting art, and he himself is an outstanding artist, 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 10 bronze replicas of world-famous sculptures, which were placed in front of the palace, among the flowers, under the shade of trees and beside the path. What a feast for the eyes!
