The Archipelago, Stockholm Islands
If you come to Stockholm, you must visit the archipelago on the outskirts. The archipelago has rich vegetation and is dotted with two or three red or yellow holiday cottages. White sailing boats occasionally float on the calm Baltic Sea, which is very charming. In summer, Stockholm Archipelago is a paradise for sailors and boaters, and of course tourists can also reach it by public transport. Many people love the unique scenery of Stockholm Archipelago. If you have time, you must take a boat to explore the more than 24,000 surrounding islands and experience unparalleled natural scenery. Of course, the wisest choice is undoubtedly to take a traditional white ferry from the center of Stockholm to tour the archipelago and it only takes half an hour to reach the nearest island Fjäderholmarna. You will definitely experience the broad and clear beauty of "autumn waters and skies of the same hue" and it will be a worthwhile trip.
Millesg rden, Milles Garden
Millesgården is a sculpture park located on the island of Lidingö in northeastern Stockholm, representing the sculptor Carl Milles, a Swedish representative. He bought the hillside next to the bay in 1906 and built a villa and studio. After Milles passed away in 1955, a large number of Milles works and the paintings and sculptures collected by him were collected here as a museum, including Chinese Tang Sancai and Ming Dynasty stone carvings. Afterwards, it was expanded into a park facing the vast bay. The courtyard in the park is arranged in a varied manner, with beautiful scenery and sculptures scattered among fountains and flowers.
Forest Cemetery The Woodland Cemetery
The Forest Cemetery, established in the early 20th century, aims to create a special and primitive purpose by perfectly integrating nature and architecture. Today, it is considered one of the most important innovations in modern architecture and is therefore included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. In Stockholm, people generally believe that cemeteries are "gardens of the dead". Therefore, it is like a beautiful park here, beautiful throughout the year. The avenue of greenery and the tombstones erected for the deceased will impress you. In the summer, you can also taste coffee at the visitor center, and the staff will be happy to provide you with tour services.
