One of my favorite thing when I visited Stockholm was just walking around the city, in residential areas like Ostermalm and Sodermalm, they have beautiful houses, the streets are so clean and beautifully quiet, and this is heaven when you are from a chaotic city like Rome. Moreover, the most majestic thing was the subway, in particular TCentralen and Kungstradgarden stations were stunning.
revengerknight92 Karlaplan is my fav (I’ve legit been on everyone cuz Im swedish)
Indeed, I went last weekend from London, Stockholm was covered in snow so even the cars were not making any noise, such a big difference, it almost feels weird to not hear the noise.
Stockholm is my most favourite city in the entire world❤️ Definitely agree on Gamla Stan, Vasa Museet, Skansen and many other places you named. I have one specific tip for a café in Gamla Stan which is called "Under Kastanjen". You should definitely check that out☺️
And I agree with you on getting out into nature. From Stockholm, you can take ferries to Vaxholm or Sandhamn for example, which are both beautiful islands. But pretty much every other part of Sweden is worth a visit. I particularly love Småland, a part in central southern Sweden where Astrid Lindgren's books take place, the West coast, Öland or Lappland. Nothing is better than a Swedish summer...😊❤️
I totally agree with you!! I love Stockholm and Sweden too.
A minor correction: The Nobel Prize award cermony is in the concert hall, it is the banquet afterwards that is in the city hall.
+Sakletare thanks Saletare!
I've never checked out Stockholm before but now I see what a beautiful city it is, everything looks so clean and well-kept, the architecture is truly stunning and what a setting, water everywhere! A truly beautiful place in the world. And I love your videos, I learn so much.
arriesone1 get here! As a swede in Stockholm, it’s the best in the while Sweden!
Beautiful City, wonderful people
You didnt notice that the entire Stockholm subway basically is a long art gallery? Feels like that would be worth a mention since every station is a different art exhibit 😊 some of them are quite beautiful 😊
Love this! Gamla Stan has great food and amazing architecture and history.
You're much better than most Americans at pronouncing Swedish words so don't worry. ;-)
+Linus Wärn Thank you Linus :)
+Linus Wärn Quite good except the way he puts the emphasis on the last syllable in the word "nordiska" Also he does not know about the "å" letter, which few non-scandinavians do.
But we do put the emphasis on the last syllable in thousands of words and names (such as Nobel), so it's not very easy for a foreigner to know exactly where this pattern is applicable.
It was hilarious taking my dad to ikea here in america. It sounded like his tongue was having a seizure trying to pronounce the names of things.

We are visiting Stockholm in march, expensive but can't wait !
great video, looks like a great place to visit! Cant wait to see more videos :)
you are such a symphathetic guy ! I always enjoy watching your videos. Keep on going and thank you very much for all the effort u put into ur videos!
+adrianoy79 thanks Adrian! all the best on your travels!
I'm swedish and live in Sweden and my absolute favorite thing is to walk around Old Town in Stockholm! Once I managed to get a tour through the area in a horse-drawn carriage. The armory at the royal palace is super fun as well.
Drottningholm - terrific place. Forget royal residence; the park there is fantastic!
Yes, one of the great sights of the city
thanks for your video's i go to Stockholm in april,you give verry usefull information :)
#10 was my favorite! :)
-A proud Göteborgare
Mariaberget, Sodermalm for the stunning view. On the opposite side from where are you standing. Great vid as always, keep up. Hej! Oh and some more: the fabulous subway stations and the Skogskyrkogarden cemetery...
Your videos are like the Tripadvisor of TH-cam. I look for them before visiting a new city 😁
I hope to see the vassa some day!
Thank you for this im planning to visit Stockholm next year and this really helped :)
Great video. Thanks man
Great video! Going to Stockholm this weekend. Can't wait :D
Thanks for the video! I always trust your opinions. I am supposed to go to Sweden tomorrow but was thinking not to go..I think I'll have a full weekend now!
love that Vasa is included since i work there XD
Cool! how much does a ticket to your museum currently cost? I'm going in September!
Excellent video. You are doing great job.
Cosmonova! Dome shaped screen of 760m2 and that sound!!! ( in Naturhistoriska riksmuseet )
Thank you for the great travel tips!
WOLTERS WORLD, thank you for your encouraging reportage. I will visit Stockholm :)
I feel like I've seen your videos before but for some reason haven't subbed. As a fellow traveler, I love these videos. You've got my sub! My wife and I love getting ideas together for several destinations across the globe before picking where to go.
So many amazing things to do in Stockholm
We agree - it looks a great city to visit.
ABBA Museum is amazing. It's a must for anyone who likes pop music.
Some nice tips again Wolters World.
The Historic Museum is great, it covers Swedish history from the inland ice sheet withdrew up to but not including Gustav Vasa forming modern Sweden.
They have lot's of things about vikings and medieval history.
If you have been to Djurgården visited Skansen or the Vasa museum just continue in the direction of the bridge over the small canal when you leave Djurgården and walk up Narvavägen (Narva Road) and the museum is on the left halfway up the hill.
your chanel ia amazing !!!! thank you !!!
So nice to see your videos....I live in Stockholm and indeed it's a great city to live and to visit...so beautiful, but so expensive! I couldn't afford to do in one whole year all the visits and tours you recommend people to do in a week. :)
Nice video ) Thank you
I will give it a try, cheers.
I Love this dude ❤️
I have lived in Stockholm from 96 to 03, still the best place and time of my life.
I love the TH-cam channel called Let's Walk Around Stockholm.
The old town in Stockholm is the most beautiful place and I live in sweden
A lovely looking place.
I want to go back so bad! I had so much fun there. I even performed in one of the stand-up comedy clubs (Big Ben). I got three pages of notes that I'm mulling into new material.
You are very cool. I like watching your videos.
I've only seen Malmö in Sweden when I went to visit Copenhagen... I'de love to see everything in Scandinavia ... So much to see...
+abraham lincoln Not really compared to southern european cities
YOUR Pezevenk I've seen Venezia, some cities in north Italy, Spain (north, south and Palma de Malorca), all the southern french coast... But I prefered Copenhagen . I'm not only interested by scandinavian cities but I want to see the nature too . Norway fjords, swedish lapony, Iceland, even Greenland...
+abraham lincoln Mediterranean cities are great, but they are hot, expensive and crowded, so why not visit a cold and sparsely populated place for a change.
SkandikFilm Sorry, I don't know the meaning of "sparesly" . But Scandinavia is expensive too . Especially the flights...
+abraham lincoln Domestic airtravel in Sweden is way more expensive than flying internationally (and in some cases even transcontinentally)
The Vasa Museum and Skansen (and a walk through Gamla stan/Old town) would probably be my top picks. Strangely, I've missed several of the sights on your list despite having lived close to Stockholm my whole life. Some things are simply due to different interests - I'm more interested in science and culture than photography or art, so I tend to gravitate towards the museum of natural history/of ethnography instead of your suggestions - but some sights are just weird to never having visited. Perhaps I should go on a tour of the royal castle some day. I've been there, but only as part of the guard and not as a visitor.
Anyway, great video. I really like your videos wherever you go, but it's even more fun to see you visit the place were I live. :)
+Sebastian Åkerberg pretty cool stuff all over town. not sure if my top 10 is in order of #1 through #10 to see :) I just love going to vasa and skansen. all the best!
When it comes to eating in Old town. You should visit either "Den gyldene freden", or "Tegelbacken". Or the Viking gourmet restaurant "Aifur". The atmosphere is very special, it´s like eating at a Viking feast when you go there, but the food is very good. But you have to book in advance to get a table.
The old town of Stockholm is unique even from an international perspective. It has a medieval feel with its narrow alleys. I would like to see Wolters World visiting Visby, Gotland and of course Russia, South Africa, Australia.
JA! Jag älskar Sverige! Jag har väntat för det här.
You’re now my favorite person on TH-cam because you pronounced sauna correctly (although, in Swedish it’s bastu)!
blood pudding is one of my favourite Foods! (im from sweden)
When my sister came to visit from the countryside, she bought a 24 hour SL ticket, that means that you can go around on subway cars, commuter trains and buses as much as you like for 24 hours. There is also 72 hour and 7 day tickets, as well as 30 day (month) cards. All tickets are electronic and are purchased at vending machines in stores and at larger stations (Most subway and commuter train stations have them).
Note that SL tickets are not applicable on SJ (railroad) and you cannot buy tickets once you have boarded a train, they stopped selling them onboard a few years ago. And SL tickets are only applicable in the Stockholm county.
If you are in a group and can't decide what to eat, go to Hötorgshallen, it's a large food court with everything from Cajun BBQ, to Chinese food, to Indian curries to Pizza...and more. Can be a bit loud during lunch hours though. Try the Kebab pizza.
There are some shopping malls outside the city centre, i would recommend Kista (Take the Subway) and Mall of Scandinavia in Solna (Take the Commuter train), since they are BIG and have a wide variety of stores. There are more malls, but not as varied.
Please read up on Allemansrätten before you go out into nature, there are freedoms in nature, but also responsibilities. And please do not blast music when out in the nature.
If you are an American, do not go around and tell that you voted for Trump or Bush unless you want to be ignored by 99% of the population - or possibly get punched in the face.
Love you!
They are building a new viking museum in Stockholm, you should visit it when it opens in 2017! :D
@åpoi What does this even mean? All cultures were virtually indistinguishable at that time since it was before the languages began to really diverge. The Swedish vikings just happend to go in the opposite direction of the Norwegian / Danish ones (generally speaking of course, viking raids were not centrally organized by some monarchy and so there were Swedish vikings 'vikinging' to the west and vice versa). Most 'Swedish' vikings went to Russia and the lands over there. Fun fact, the name Russia comes from the word 'Rus' which referred to the Scandinavian (mostly from Sweden) traders etc living in what is now modern day Russia.
Also, the 'largest' viking raid ever was carried out by the semi-mythical king of Sweden, Bjön Ironside. You could be right in the sense that the concept of Swedes did not really exist at the time, since all scandinavian cultures were basically the same, hence why they are called norse, but then the Norwegians and Danes were also not vikings. What is true and not really debatable is that people living in modern day Sweden, Norway and Denmark were what we now refer to as vikings equally.
Well, I have already been in Stockholm 5 times and I also have some noteable recommendations for visiting. What about viewing the vaults down in the subway stations. Some of them are painted inspired by amazing art. And what about strolling through T-Centralen, one of the most modern central railway stations of Europe...
ABBA Museum is my top #5.
Visit Rosendals trädgård in Djurgården. Fantastic big garden with a restaurant.
I can recommend Vaxholm fortress and the Kaknäs-tower;)
+Gustav Viveland cool. thanks Gustav!
Come and visit Helsinki!
+Muff Daddy Beautifull city.
Visit GrönaLund next to Skansen
Absolutely excellent video
Just one other must see I would recommend - östermalms saluhall!
+Neil Baker thanks Neil.
+woltersworld i recommend the far North of sweden where its nice and Cold :D
It’s being rebuilt until autumn 2019
Any things for musically-inclined people? Like concerts/orchestras/operas/jazz etc...?
My dad worked at the palace and apparently it’s like a small hotel in there for the staff
Nice 👍
+Brandon Gonzalez thanks Brandon!
Where is the public library? I as a local did think it were like top 5 in most iconic stocholm stuff.
You should go to Visby. Its more history then in Stockholm. If u can go during "medeltidsveckan", its a medieval week where most people dress like they did in the medievals. Search for "Visby innerstad" to look at some Pictures.
This should be renamed to What museums to see in Stockholm
Alex Slay maybe it's because the city sucks and there's nothing to see other than the old town?
Wow i live in sweden
my favourite metal band is from there. sabaton.
I really like this guy, his videos have always been so informative, comparing some other youtuber who dont even know what they talk about in the videos, his videos deserve more views. I mean, many of those travel youtubers spend more than half of their videos acting cute or flashing boobs, and they can get more than 1 million views lol Gezzz, we need more youtubers like this guy. PS. i am not gay.
I thin you really nailed the pronunciation of "Drottningsholm" :)
Gamla stan 👌🏻👌🏻
I used to dance at skansen and wear our traditional clothing
Skansen outdoor museum is my favorite thing here (yeah I’m a stockholmer) it is the most romantic park you can go for a walk in.
Don’t waste time or money on the Nobel museum. If you’re interested in the Nobel prizes over time, go online and read the wikipedia sections on them. Save you time and get you better content.
If you go to fancy restaurants, or midprice ones, don’t miss the bread! Seriously, we’ve had a baking revolution in the 2000s. I thank the hipsters, probably. Also lot of good microbrewery beer around.
If in summer and the weather is nice: Definitely do picnic in whatever park is closest. We do it all the time. Wolter said we have a state monopoly selling wine and liquer, right? But he didn’t say that it is the best stocked, best priced and most service minded wine warehouse in the world. Any one of the outlets. Systembolaget. Check it out.
I agree that traditional swedish cooking isn’t all that, but If you wanna be a completionist and try it, there are three places: Tennstopet, Kvarnen or Pelikan, the last one being my personal choice.
I disagree with Wolter on the whole dresscode thing. There’s a very limited area around ”Stureplan” where anybody is snobbish about that, don’t sweat it.
Finally, If you’re a strong Trump or Brexit supporter, you might want to be discreet about it until you know and trust the people you’re with; those are _very_ unpopular positions for a lot of swedes. You might not get into fistfights about it, but you will be judged.
Sture P 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Please do a video about bonn
+jumana yousif we have one from like 6 years ago :)
can you make a top 10 helsinki please?
+francisco font saravia I needed to make one when I was there a couple years ago and just ran out of time sadly :( but we will get back one day
Although I love Sweden as well as the city of Stockholm and would surely like to know about, but would prefer to see the places more on the screen than watching you during most of the video duration.
This may have been asked before, but what do you do when you visit places such as Sweden, and need to talk to the locals? Are you fluent in the language of places you go to, or something?
And Stockholm is very beautiful. I enjoyed the video! :)
In Sweden, most people speak very good English. In fact, you should be fine with English in many European countries because many of us learn English as a second language here☺️ Never hurts go know a few sentences in the local language though.
+Ciel Phantomhive I usually learn a few basic phrases and find that many people speak English, but if I can speak the local language I prefer to speak that as I get to learn so much more. but if I don't speak the language at least some basic phrases definitely opens up so many doors and hearts.
+Ciel Phantomhive Yeah Scandinavians speak super great english. I was in Norway this summer and never had a problem.
And judging by your name and profile pic I hope you'd agree with me that woltersworld should see more of East Asia too :-)
"dancing queeeenn only seventeeeeennn" lmao

what about the viking museum. its located 400 meters from the Vasa museum

I live in Stockholm
You are soooo fortunate! Im visiting in September!
you should tip about the Stockholm card. You can travel and get into museums for free, I don't think it's expensive if you want to visit many museums and don't want to walk all the way
+Erica Erixon The Stockholm Card is only valid to 31th dec 2015. Then it´s gone... they don't sell it anymore. Instead there is a card called mystockholm , same thing but no public transport. =/
Oh :( that's stupid. Turist probably loves those card
They did.. But the Public Transportation company wanted a huge increase in kickback for each sold card, so they where forced to shut down. Hope it won't stop you from visiting, Stockholm is a great city to visit, aswell as rest of Sweden.
+Ulf Josefsson åh jag är där tillräckligt ofta, bor så nära så :)
+Erica Erixon ha ha ha, okej. :-)
Drottningholm is nice but I think you forgot to mention the theatre there, which is really in the same state as when it was inaugurated 1766
One time, I stayed here for an extended period of time and I did not want to leave. I guess that's why they call it the Stockholm Syndrome.
Stockholm syndrome is a different thing google it ;)
There is a liquor museum somewhere between the abba museum and the vasa museum.
Malmkoping tram-museum.
Hi get some Swedish friends and head out to the forest is my tip.
I lived in Stockholm 9 years and appart of winter time ,I used to go in the forests every single day of the year(exploring,plocking mushrooms...).I miss so much those beautiful forests!
I heard that Sweden is very clean everywhere. Is that true?
+whutzat Yes, it´s true. Actually....We are so good at keeping things clean and recycle, so we have to IMPORT garbage from UK and Norway to burn to make electricity/heat. 0_o
yes
kind of
whutzat YESSSSS IVE LIVED HERE MY WHOLE LIFE AND THERES NO WHERE THAT HAVE BEEN SO CLEAN
Yes. I had a friend over from Japan who think Sweden an extremely clean country and she said that she was surprised to see how clean it was. Myself i think Sweden is tidy, but there are some areas that are not so clean, mostly the suburbs in some towns. There aren't exactly piles of trash laying around, but there is some here and there.
I've seen worse in Amsterdam (was there in 2007/2013), Berlin (2015) and London (2010/2011/2013), the towns in the countryside were cleaner.
Barcelona (2007) on the other hand is on par with Sweden, they got recycling bins and everything. Prague (2014) was also quite clean, even Beijing (2009) was cleaner than some European cities - except for the air.
Nån svensk här ;D
I thought he said Stockholm was a great place to go for a wee (kend)!
Who else is comming from Sweden?😂🙋🏼
I saw some really good airline prices for Stockholm. My son is disabled. Can someone tell me if Stockholm is easy and good to get around for the disabled? Thank you. :-)
It is easy to get around and they show respect for disabled people.
Yes its ilegal for us to make that hard
here
Just to you americans (mainly US and Canadians I suppose) most of Swedes which came to america (before 1809) was forced Finnish people living in modern day Sweden and from modern day Finland. So sorry mates :-D you know one of oldest sauna(bastu) which was recorded in US was build in finnish style :-P just bringing facts. Though Stockholm is much op than Helsinki; less cold in climate and people, more places to visit and more that "you might know somehow" culture.
