Discover Stockholm and its archipelago

In the immensity of the Baltic Sea, the battle between land and water since the dawn of time has given birth to the largest archipelago in Sweden: the Stockholm archipelago, a veritable maritime labyrinth punctuated by 24,000 islands with infinite shapes. Spread over 14 islands where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea, the Swedish capital subtly blends a city center that is both modern and historic, where nature is omnipresent... Nicknamed the Venice of the North, Stockholm exudes a true sweetness of life on a daily basis. to live. You will understand it quite quickly: taking your time will be the key word of your stay. The Stockholmer is never in a hurry, he is always inclined to a coffee break accompanied by a sweetness that he calls fika. A simplicity in the way of taking life, a good spirit: Stockholm is a resolutely epicurean city.
