Sweden
Frozen wastelands, cosy cottages, virgin forest, rocky islands, reindeer herders and Viking lore Sweden has all that plus impeccable style and to-die-for dining.
Truth be told, the best thing about Sweden is its natural beauty. To really appreciate this countrys charms, you have to leave the city behind. Whether that means sailing across an archipelago to visit a lonely island or trekking along a kingly trail through the northern wilderness just depends on your preferences why not try both? Hiking, camping, cycling, skiing, skating, boating, fishing and foraging for mushrooms and berries are all major Swedish pastimes, and its easy to get in on the action from just about anywhere in the country.
In some ways, visiting Sweden feels like walking right into a fashion or home-decor magazine. There are no boring outfits on the streets of Stockholm, and the care with which houses, cottages, cafes and public spaces are decorated and kept up throughout the country is truly inspiring. But Swedish style is never too showy; form and function are tightly linked in this society known for valuing moderation, practicality, order, simple lines and clever designs. Whether you decide to shop for your own versions or just enjoy the scenery, its hard not to fall for the cool aesthetics of this place.
The northern part of Sweden is home to the indigenous Sami people, whose traditionally nomadic lifestyle is built around reindeer herding. Sami culture, including handicrafts, homes and villages, methods of transport and style of cooking, is one of the many things a visitor can become immersed in while spending time in Lappland: spend a night or two in a Sami reindeer camp or take a dogsledding tour. If youre on a more limited schedule, have a meal in a Sami restaurant or pick up some handmade Sami woodwork or leather goods to take home as a souvenir.
Ancient rune stones poke up out of the grass in parks all over Sweden; huge stone-ship settings and unobtrusive burial mounds are almost as common. Walled medieval cities and seaside fortresses are regular stops on the travellers circuit. Viking ruins and the stories surrounding them are very much a part of the modern Swedish landscape, and its easy to feel as if youre walking through history when you wander around the country. In fact, you are. As a bonus, several Swedish museums do an excellent job of distilling and explaining that history in fascinating ways.
By Becky Ohlsen, Writer
There's something so wholesome and healthy about Sweden. People here really know how to take advantage of their gorgeous country, from its scenic beauty to its edible bounty. My earliest trips here were to visit my grandparents, and no day would be complete without a long walk on the forested trails around their apartment. Dinner was usually local fish and produce gathered from one of Stockholm's market halls and for dessert, Swedish strawberries from a Htorget vendor. To this day, being in Sweden means appreciating the outdoors, be it hiking, foraging or just happily wandering.
