There’s a number of ways to spend your time in this soul-stirring Scandi city. Wander glamorous Strandvägen – one of the world’s finest boulevards, visit an old nuclear reactor some 25 metres underground or stroll the lavish Royal Palace to explore hundreds of rooms and artefacts.
My last visit to the Swedish capital featured breakfasts of lingonberry-smothered raggmunk (potato pancakes) and ferry rides to the various islands. Short breaks to Stockholm can be whatever you want them to be – my selection of sizzling sights is just the jumping-off point to planning your own adventures.
