Stockholm has been capital for swedish since 13th century, and still today is home for over 760 000 people and Stockholms urban areas population is over 1.2 milj. people.
Stockholm is situated east coast of Sweden. Typical temptures during year are: winter: -5 to +3 C summer: +20 to + 27C
Old part of city is "Gamla Stan" (Old town) and it still got its original medieval street net from 13th century. Specially from "Gamla Stan" you can found wonderful restaurants and bars and small gift and antique shops.
Stockholm is full of different museums. My favorite is Vasa Museum what is now with the reconstruction of the missing parts of the Vasa Ship. GO TO SEE BEFORE IS GONE!!!! (Ship was over 400 yr's old, if I remember right and smell in museum was...welll not nicest ever but ship was stunning!!!!) (+++++++)
In Stockholm there is couple zoo's and themepark. And King of Sweden King Carl XVI Gustaf got homepalace where he live with queen Silvia and crown prinsess Victoria, prince Carl-Phillip and princess Madelene. Royal Palace is open for visitors and you can see guardian chance daily.
Traveling in Stockholm is very easy, by walk you get more but if you are busy use Stockholm metro (Tunnelbanan). And if you get sick of Sweden, you can always hop in to ferry and go to Finland, Estonia and Latvia.
Unfortunary Swedish dont use euros ( big minus -- - - --).20 SEK (kronor) is little pit over 2 euros.
Hint: Stockholm got own A-Z map as well.
