Tourism  
Stockholm is a striking city that seems to float on water -- part of it is built on a series of islands. It's been likened to Venice, with its location by the sea, its waterways and pedestrian-friendly bridges. It is dotted with parkland and refined architecture with patinated rooftops. The Old Town, with its cobblestone streets, evokes the 18th century.

As nice as it looks, Stockholm is more than just a pretty face. The substance behind its style comes from a long-standing appreciation for high culture. There are great jazz clubs, fine restaurants and more than a hundred museums.
