Gamla Stan

Stockholm Sweden, the Old Town

  

Probably the most popular tourist shopping area, the old town area has many interesting shops, craftsmen, historical buildings and a super walking tour.

Scale models of the area are on display and every hotel has a detailed map to help.

   

 

 

  

 There is a walking tour through the old town where you have to find the points of interest ...like a cannon ball in the wall, the narrowest street, certain famous statues, or the tiniest statue in Sweden.

 

   

 

The Swedish mint and the federal bank are in the old section. Easily recognized by the 3rd story walkway between so that currency can be transported with ease.
