Cheap eats
by Weener
Ok, lets face it, Stockholm is expensive. So, to eat out, can be pricey.
My advice, would be to eat at the Kungshallen, which is a food cour, with all different varieties (from Greek, Indian, Mexican, Sushi, Italian.. list goes on)
Two of you can eat here for under ý10, and watch out for special lunch deals, although it can be busy in the week with workers lunching here.
Then you can save your money for shopping or other sightseeing trips! I'll get a picture on here once film is developed
Before I start to describe...

Before I start to describe what you can see in this town I'd like to show you two weather tables, so you can chose when is best to stay here. I were in Stockholm in September (the first week) and I've no cold, but there was a boring cold wind.

The Nobel Prize
by Arial_27
As most of you probably know, Sweden is home to one of the world's most revered awards, the Nobel Prize. It was established by Alfred Nobel in the 1800s (he invtented dynamites.) The prize ceremony is held in Stockholm each year in five different categories: Chemistry, Physics, Medicine or Physiology, Literature, and Peace.
Free daily newspapers
by vec
In Stockholm you will find two free daily newspapers, delivered on the streets and free to pick up from the news stands. Even though they are in Swedish, you as a tourist will get some good information about what's happening in Stockholm by reading it. Or why not practise on your Swedish skills?
The papers are called Metro and Stockholm City.
Stureplan

Well, being 21 I thought I would be able to get in anywhere as long as I'm properly dressed. In Stockholm, quite a different story! Age limits at nightclubs are pretty high, usually around 23 for guys, sometimes even 25 unless you know the doorman. As a tourist, you better make sure you're dressed really well and have an ID on you which says you're at least 23, otherwise, I would suggest staying near the pubs at Slussen!
