Stunning Stockholm Palace
Stockholm Palace, or Kungliga Slottet, is a palatial marvel that’s certainly a must-see for any visitor.
As with the UAE capital’s awe-inspiring Qasr Al Watan, Kungliga Slottet is also a working government building, open for public visitation. Book on a captivating 45-minute guided tour to learn about the history of this royal castle and see the treasury and Royal antiques.
Visit the Vasa

After sinking in 1628 and spending more than 330 years resting on the seabed, the ship was salvaged and displayed. Its fascinating story has made the museum one of the most popular in Scandinavia.
