The Place

There's plenty more to Sweden vacations than just spotting Saabs, Volvos, and beautiful blondes. For example, marvel over the old town and Royal Castle in Stockholm, tour the Kingdom of Crystal in Kalmar, and ski down Delarna's daring slopes! You can visit the historic town of Lund, go hiking through Tiveden National Park, and explore the ruins of Visby's churches. Deciding between the hotels Sweden has to offer won't be too difficult; there are plenty of cozy accommodations for just about anyone.
