Stockholm Hotels with Internet

The Skansen Museum. The Skansen is the oldest open-air ethnographic museum in the world. Since 1891 it is the favorite place for having quiet walks of almost every citizen of Stockholm. In the Skansen Museum it seems that the past times return back. There one can have a look at peasants' or landlords' ancient houses and workshops from all corners of Sweden. Where else you can see a smith or a glass-blower working, or buy custom-made lollypops in a small candy shop? On the territory of the park (which is, by the way 300 000 m2) takes place the zoo, where in the spacious aviaries live various northern animals: wolves, bears, gluttons, reindeer and of course elks.

The Royal Palace. The Royal Palace is one of the most popular sights of Stockholm. The guard change in the middle of the day always becomes a breath-catching show for many tourists. But it's not the only thing that the Royal Palace can offer its visitors (it becomes clear after just a quick glance at the front). The luxurious style of 608 rooms was developed by the best masters of Europe. It's three times larger than Buckingham Palace, which lets us call the largest palace in the world. Besides the posh apartments, the ceremonial hall and the palace church you should also visit the knightly order house, the treasury, the museum 'Tre Kronor', the Arsenal and the Antic Museum of Gustav III. There is also a special tourist tradition: every year the King opens for visitors another one room of the Palace.
